Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want only the middle number, then call it x

the largest of the 3 is x + 1

The smallest of the 3 is x - 1

Add

x + 1 + x - 1 + x = 183 Cancel the 1s out.

x + x + x = 183 Combine the like terms on the left

3x = 183 Divide by 3

x = 183/3 Do the division

x = 61

The middle number is 61

Answer:

A = 3 ft, B = 7 ft, C = 4 ft, D = 5 ft, Surface Area = 96 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Determine the sides</u>

A → 3 ft

B → 7 ft

C → 4 ft

D → 5 ft

<u>Step 2: Determine the surface area</u>

Area of the sides

$A= 4\ ft * 7\ ft = 28\ ft^2$

$A= 5\ ft * 7\ ft = 35\ ft^2$

$A= 3\ ft * 7\ ft = 21\ ft^2$

Area of the top and bottom triangles

$A= \frac{h\ *\ b}{2} = \frac{3\ ft\ *\ 4\ ft}{2} = \frac{12\ ft^2}{2} = 6\ ft^2 = 2(6\ ft^2) = 12\ ft^2$

Total Area

$28\ ft^2 + 35\ ft^2 + 21\ ft^2 + 12\ ft^2$

$96\ ft^2$

Answer: A = 3 ft, B = 7 ft, C = 4 ft, D = 5 ft, Surface Area = 96 ft^2

Find the volume of a cube with a side length of 4r3s2.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

V = 64 r^(9) * s^(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is given by

V = s^3 where s is the side length

V = ( 4r^3s^2) ^3

We know that ( ab) ^c = a^c * b^c

V = 4^3 * r^3^3 * s^2^3

V = 64 * r^3^3 * s^2^3

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

V = 64 r^(3*3) * s^(2*3)

V = 64 r^(9) * s^(6)
