Answer: x = - 9 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5-x)-15 is greater than 12(x+1)-10(x-3)

-2(5-x)-15

-10 - 2x - 15

-2x -15 -10

-2x -25

x = -25/-2

x = - 12,5

12(x+1)-10(x-3)

12x + 12 - 10x -30

2x -18

x= -18/2

x = - 9

Haley makes earrings and packages them into cube boxes that measure 1/6 foot wide. How many 1/6 foot cubic boxes can she fit int

alexandr402 [8]

Answer: 28 cube boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube can be found with this formula:

$V_{(c)}=s^3$

Where "s" is the lenght of any edge of the cube.

You need to find the volume of a cube box:

$V_1=s^3=(\frac{1}{6}ft)^3=\frac{1}{216}ft^3$

To find the volume of the shipping box, first we must convert the mixed number to an improper fraction. To do it, multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction and add this product to the numerator.

The denominator does not change.

Then:

$1\ \frac{1}{6}=\frac{(1*6)+1}{6}=\frac{7}{6}$

Knowing the dimensions of the shipping box, you can calculate its volume by multiplying its dimensions. Then, this is:

$V_2=(\frac{7}{6}\ ft)(\frac{1}{3}\ ft)(\frac{1}{3}\ ft)=\frac{7}{54}\ ft^3$

Finally, in order to find the number of cube boxes can Haley fits into a shipping box, you must divide the the volume of the shipping box by the volume of one cube:

$\frac{\frac{7}{54}ft^3}{\frac{1}{216}ft^3}=28$

harina [27]

29. A carpenter worked for 4 days to finish a repair job. She charged $825 for 15 hours plus $278 for materials. What is the carpenter's rate per hour? Let’s start solving: => 825 dollars + 278 dollars = 1 103 dollars is the total payment a carpenter have received => 15 hours is the total hours he worked => 1 103 / 15 = 73.5 dollars per hour. This is already including the material or equipment fee.
