Answer:

x=1.578

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 3-x = 3(6x-9)

We need to find the value of x

3-x = 3(6x-9)

Distribute 3 in the right-hand side  

3-x=18x-27

Add both sides x

3-x+x=18x+x-27\\3=19x-27

Now, add both sides 27

3+27=19x-27+27\\30=19x

Divide both sides by 19

\frac{30}{19}=\frac{19x}{19}\\x=1.578

So, x=1.578

A box company is designing a new rectangular gift container. The marketing department has designed a box with a width 2 inches s
Sladkaya [172]
Volume of the box= <span>56 cubic inches
let x is the length, then
width =</span><span>2 inches shorter than its length = x - 2
</span>height =  <span>3 inches taller than its length = x+3
Volume = length x width x height
56 = x x (x-2) x (x+3)
56 = (x</span>² -2x)(x+3)
56 = x³ +3x² -2x² - 6x
56 = x³ + x² -6x
x³+x²-6x-56 = 0
using the rational root theorem and factoring the polynomial;
(x-4)(x² +5x +14) = 0
from here;
x-4 = 0
x = 4
So, length = 4 inches
width = x - 2 = 4 -2 = 2 inches
length = x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 inches
volume = l x w x h = 4 x 2 x 7 = 56
