Hi,

Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as:  5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000  -->  10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10  -->  x = 14,000.

Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)

Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)

Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)

If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.

The answer is 38, because if you take away the 15 he bought afterwards (34-15) you get 19, and then since he sold half his collection you would double that (19×2) and that's 38.

Darya [45]

Answer:

w = 9 \text{ inches}\\l = 13\text{ inches}\\h = 3\text{ inches}      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Volume of cake = 351 cubic inches

Let x inches be the width of cake.

Width of cake, w =

x\text{ inches}

Then, length of cake,l =

(x + 4)\text{ inches}

Height of cake,h =

\dfrac{x}{3}\text{ inches}

Volume of cake = Volume of cuboid

V = lwh

Putting values, we get:

351 = x(x+4)(\dfrac{x}{3})\\\\1053 = x^3 + 4x\\x^3+4x^2-1053= 0\\\\\text{For x = 9}\\(9)^3+4(9)^2-1053= 0

Thus, dimensions of cake are:

w = 9 \text{ inches}\\l = 13\text{ inches}\\h = 3\text{ inches}
