8th grade = 3x = 3(47) = 141 band members.

7th + 8th = 188

7th = x
8th = 3x

x + 3x = 188    ; x = 47 ;  47 + 3(47) = 47 + 141 = 188
4x = 188
4x / 4 = 188 / 4
x = 47 --> 7th grade

8th grade = 3x = 3(47) = 141

To check:
x + 3x = 188    ; x = 47 ;
47 + 3(47) = 188
47 + 141 = 188
188 = 188

Let the size of the seventh grade band be s
That means the size of the eighth grade band must be 3s because it is 3 times as big as the seventh grade band.
Combined, the two bands have 188 members.
3s and s combined is 4s. Thus 4s must equal 188.

4s = 188
s= 47
3s = 141

The eighth grade band has 141 members.

Keisha pumped 6 gallons of water into her pool each minute for 48 minutes what was the total change in the amount of water in th
Eduardwww [97]

The total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.

<h3>What is Volume?</h3>

Volume is a scalar quantity expressing the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Here, Rate of water pumped into her pool = 6 gallons / minute.

          Total Duration = 48 minutes

Total amount of water = Rate X Time

                                     = 6 X 48

                                     = 288 gallons

Thus, the total change in the amount of water in the pool is 288 gallons.

I'm confused on how to find the length of this triangle.​
sertanlavr [38]

the formula for area=l*w

you know one side is 1.1w (w representing the unknown side) and the area is 3.3w squared. now you need to plug in the numbers you know into your formula which would look like this: 3.3w squared is equal to 1.1w times w. now you need to solve for w by multiplying 1.1w and w to get 1.1w squared. now you are going to divide 1.1 w squared on both sides which gives you w equals 3

Final answer: w=3
