Answer:
what are the followings..........
Original Statement: If x = 3, then x^2 = 9 (true)
Converse: If x^2 = 9, then x = 3 (false; this is half the story and x = -3 must be included)
Since the converse isn't completely true, we can't combine the two statements to get a biconditional.
Answer: The second option.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Calculate the first volume assuming that the figure is completed (with no missing part). Therefore, you must apply the formula for calculate the volume of a square prism:

Where s is the side of the base and h is the height.
2. Then:

4. The volume of the missing part is calculated with the formula of a rectangular prism:

Where l is the lenght, w is the width and h is the height. Then:

5. Therefore, you must subtract both volumes to obtained the volume of the figure:

Answer:
length=53 in
width= 23 in
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that each corner has now a square of 6 in long, so the heigth of the box will be of this size (as you can see in the picture attached). Then, the length and the width of the box would be the same as the piece, but with 12 in less. Therefore the equations to solve the problem are:

We factorize the 6 and we get:

Finally we solve for x, and we get the initial dimensions of the piece of metal:


We first add both 19.8 by 19.8 and therefore, that would give us 39.6.
42 - 39.6 = 2.4.
2.4 ÷ 2 = 1.2
1.2 would be the length of each sides.
