-3(x-5)=45
distribute
-3x+15 = 45
subtract 15 from each side
-3x = 30
divide by -3
x = -10
General Idea:
We need to find the volume of the small cube given the side length of the small cube as 1/4 inch.
Also we need to find the volume of the right rectangular prism with the given dimension (the height is 4 1/2, the width is 5, and the length is 3 3/4).
To find the number of small cubes that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism, we need to divide volume of right rectangular prism by volume of each small cube.
Formula Used:

Applying the concept:
Volume of Small Cube:

Conclusion:
The number of small cubes with side length as 1/4 inches that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism whose height is 4 1/2 inches, width is 5 inches, and length is 3 3/4 inches is <em><u>5400 </u></em>
The answer is x= - 11/ 16
You can check this by plugging in x for -11/16
Answer:
2.6 and 2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The actual square root of 7 is 2.64 and that is between 2.6 and 2.7.
About 400 marbles. You simply set up a proportion and solve it as I did in the photo attached.
