Answer:

43.75 inches or 43 and 3/4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, thanks for the complement of information.

So, to find the volume of that step, which is a rectangular prism, we would use the simple formula:

V = length *  width * height

In this case, we have the total volume (3,500 cu in), we have the width (10 inches)  and we have the height (8 inches).  But we need to find out the new length in order for him to use all 3,500 cu in of cement.

So, we transform the formula above into:

length = V / (width * height)

then we plug-in the numbers:

length = 3,500 / (8 x 10) = 3,500 / 80 = 43.75

So, the new length of the step would be 43.75 inches or 43 and 3/4 inches.

How do I simplify (2k ^2 +5k-6) (3k-1)
wolverine [178]
(2k² + 5k - 6)(3k - 1)
(6k³ - 2k² + 15k² - 5k - 18k + 6)
6k² + 13k² - 23k + 6

Use the FOIL method to simplify the problem.

At least 4

10% of 12 is 1.2

So 30% is 3.6

And 1% 0.12

So 2% is 0.24


Plus 3.6 onto 0.24 and you get 3.84
