Answer:

The volume of the stones is 382 cube inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the aquarium are;

length = 16 inches

width = 8 inches

height = 10 inches

The height of the water in the aquarium = 4 inches

i. Volume of the water in the aquarium = length x width x height

                               = 16 x 8 x 4

                               = 512 cube inches

The volume of water in the aquarium is 512 cube inches.

ii. The new height of water = 7 inches.

New volume of water = 16 x 8 x 7

                                  = 896 cube inches

The new volume of water is 869 cube inches.

The volume of the stones = New volume of water - initial volume of water

                                  = 869 - 512

                                  = 384 cube inches

The volume of the stones is 382 cube inches.

Solve this absolute value equation and show all work.
vitfil [10]
I was confused at first until I realized that you'd shared not one, not two, but three questions in one post.  would you please post just one question at a time to avoid this.

I'll focus on your second question only:  Solve <span>3 + |2x - 4| = 15.

Subtr. 3 from both sides.  Result:  |2x - 4| = 12

Divide all terms by 2, to reduce:    |x - 2| = 6

Case 1:  x-2 is already +, so we don't need |    |:

                       x - 2 = 6    =>   x = 8 (first answer)

Case 2:  x-2 is negative, so |2x-4| = -(2x-4) = 6

             Then   -2x + 8 = 6.  Subtr. 8 from both sides:   -2x = -2

               Div both sides by -2:  x = 1 (second answer)

Be sure to check these results by subst. them into the original equation.

Please post your other questions separately.  Thanks and good luck!
