Complete question :

A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?

1) 2 1/2 feet

2) 3 feet

4) 5 feet

5) 8 1/2 feet

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for X in the perimeter equation :

2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74

Open the bracket

2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74

2(27 + 4x) = 74

54 + 8x = 74

8x = 74 - 54

8x = 20

x = 20/8

x = 2.5

Hence, width fo border = 2.5

How many cubes with side lengths of \dfrac14\text{ cm}
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question

How many cubes with side lengths of ¼cm needed to fill the prism of volume 4 cubic units?

We know that,

Volume of a cube is s³

V = s³

Where 's' is length of side of a cube

Given that

The cube has a length of ¼cm, and a cube has equal length

s= ¼cm

Then, it's volume is

V = s³

V = (¼)³ = ¼ × ¼ × ¼

V = 1 / 64 cubic unit

V = 0.015625 cubic unit

Then, given that the volume of the prism to be filled is 4 cubic unit

Then,

As, we have to find the number if cubes so we will divide volume of prism by volume of one cube

Then,

n = Volume of prism / Volume of cube

n = 4 / 0.015625

n = 256

So, then required cubes to filled the prism is 256 cubes.
