Answer:

given a number x, negative 3 times that number is -3x. If this has to be at least 57, it means that -3x must be greater than or equal to 57:

$-3\geq 57$ Dividing both sides by -3 solves the equation, but we have to switch the inequality sign because we're dividing by a negative number:

$x \leq \frac{57}{3} =19$

What is (2+y)³ written out? 8 + 12y + 6y² + y³ 6 + 8y + 4y² + y³

AveGali [126]

$\boxed{(2+y)^3-cube\ the\ sum\ of\ the\ numbers\ 2\ and\ y}$

$Use:\ (a+b)^3=(a+b)(a+b)(a+b)=a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3\\----------------------------\\(2+y)^3=2^3+3\cdot2^2\cdot y+3\cdot2\cdot y^2+y^3=8+3\cdot4y+6y^2+y^3\\\\=8+12y+6y^2+y^3\\========================================$

$8+12y+6y^2+6y^3+8y+4y^2+y^3\\=8+(12y+8y)+(6y^2+4y^2)+(6y^3+y^3)\\=8+20y+10y^2+7y^3$

A regular hexagonal prism has a volume of 160 cubic meters. Its base has a perimeter of 30 meters and an area of 64 square meter

valkas [14]

We know that

[volume of a regular hexagonal prism]=[area of the base]*height
height=volume/area of the base
h=160/64-----> 2.5 m

[surface area hexagonal prism]=2*[area of the base]+[perimeter of base]*h
[surface area hexagonal prism]=2*[64]+[30]*2.5----> 203 m²

the answer is
203 m²
