Answer:

Cathy was right ( kinda)

Step-by-step explanation:

let the dimension of the small one be 2a : 2b : 2c

then the dimension of the big one be 3a : 3b : 3c

volume of small: 2a*2b*2c = 8 abc

volume of big: 3a*3b*3c = 27 abc

volume ratio: big/ small = 27/8 = 3.375

-> big one hold 237.5% more than small

-> Cathy was right ( kinda)

The first sequence rule is subtract 8 starting from 72. The second sequence rule is subtract 6 starting from 58. What is the fir
Darya [45]

Answer:

A) 16

Step-by-step explanation:

1st sequence: 72-8x

2nd sequence: 58-6x

Set both sequences equal to each other and solve for x:

72-8x=58-6x

14-8x=-6x

14=2x

7=x

x=7

Plug x=7 back into the equation:

72-8(7)=58-6(7)

72-56=58-42

16=16

So the first number that appears in both sequences is 16.
