Well, if the boxes are 4 x 4 x 4, then they are each 64 cu in.
<span>So, 12 of them would be 64 x 12 = 768 cu in. (or 5.3 cu ft)</span>

If f(x)=x-5, find x when f(x)=15

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the value of f(x), replace it in the first equation

15 = x - 5

solve for x by adding 5 on both sides

15 + 5 = x

20 = x or x = 20

The cost of a company picnic varies directly as the number of employees attending the picnic. If a company picnic costs $487.50

Drupady [299]

The company picnic cost $ 1300 for 80 employees

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that cost of a company picnic varies directly as the number of employees attending the picnic

Let "c" be the company picnic cost

Let "n" be the number of employees attending the picnic

Therefore,

$cost \propto \text{ number of employees attending picnic }$

$c \propto n\\\\c = kn$

Where "k" is the constant of proportionality

c = kn ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>Given that company picnic costs $487.50 for 30 employees</u></em>

Therefore substitute c = 487.50 and n = 30

$487.50 = k(30)\\\\k = \frac{487.50}{30} = 16.25$

<em><u>How much does a company picnic cost for 80 employees?</u></em>

Substitute n = 80 and k = 16.25 in eqn 1

$c = 16.25(80) = 1300$

Thus $ 1300 is the cost for 80 employees

What value or values of x satisfy 2x + 5.31 = 4.2?

Softa [21]

Answer: x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct expression is:

2|x+5.3|=4.2

So, we have an absolute value equation, where it can be positive or negative:

Positive

2 (x+5.3)=4.2

2x+10.6 =4.2

2x=4.2-10.6

2x = -6.4

x= -6.4/2

x = -3.2

Negative

2[-(x+5.3)]=4.2

-2x-10.6 =4.2

-2x= 4.2+10.6

-2x= 14.8

x= 14.8/-2

x= -7.4

x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.
