Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

a/b=3------equation 1

a+b=2-----equation 2

from equation 2

b=2-a

substitute b=2-a in equation 1

a/2-a=3

a=3(2-a)

a=6-3a

a+3a=6

a=6/4

a=3/2

substitute a=3/2 in equation 2

3/2+b=2

3+2b=4

2b=1

b=1/2

a-b=3/2-1/2

a-b=(3-1)/2

a-b=2/2

a-b=1

Ghella [55]
Your answer would be 518 Cubic inches.

18.5 * 7 = 129.5
