Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total Cost = $ 834

            Price of Car = $52

            Price of Plane = $14

Let, the number of model cars be x and model planes y.

⇒ 834 = 52x + 14y---------- (1)

Also, The number of model planes are 3 more than that of the model cars.

⇒y = x+3 ----------(2)

Substituting the value of y from (2) in (1)

    834 = 52x + 14(x+3)

⇒  834 = 52x + 14x +42

⇒834-42 = 66x

⇒66x = 792

⇒ x=12

Substituting the value of x in (2)

y = 12+3 = 15

Therefore, Mr. Garcia bought 15 model planes.

The table tells us that the x coordinate. It also tells us that y is always x + 1.

For #1 you plot the coordinate (0, 1).
0 (the x coordinate) is given to us already.
1 (the y coordinate) is needed to be found by the equation.
You would then need to fill in the equation given with the x coorident. 
y = 0 + 1 
Then, solve for y.
0 + 1 = 1
The y coordinate is 1
Go to the horizontal line (x) and find 0.
Then go to the veridical line (y) and find 1.
Then match up the the x and y to plot the coordinate.

You would continue with this equation with the rest of the xs. 

This is a hard concept to explain in just words, so feel free to comment with any more questions. :D

Answer:

The new volume is 14,850cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of a rectangular prism = 550cm

Required

Value of volume when the dimensions are tripled.

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated using the following formula.

V = lbh

<em>When Volume = 550, the formula is written as follows</em>

550 = lbh

<em>Rearrange</em>

lbh = 550

However, when each dimension is tripled.

This means that,

new length = 3 * old length

new breadth = 3 * old breadth

new height = 3 * old height

<em>Let L, B and H represent the new length, new breadth and new height respectively</em>

In other words,

L = 3l

B = 3b

H = 3h

Calculating new volume

New volume = LBH

Substitute, 3l for L, 3b for B and 3h for H;

V = 3l * 3b * 3h

V = 3 * l * 3 * b * 3 * h

V = 3 * 3 * 3 * l*b*h

V = 27 * lbh

Recall that lbh = 550

So,

V = 27 * 550

V = 14,850

Hence, the new volume is 14,850cm³
