Since point Q is the midpoint of GH, that means that GH-GQ=HQ=GQ (since Q is the midpoint). Plugging them in, we get 5x-5-(2x+3)=3x-8=GQ=HQ. Since Q is the midpoint, that means that 3x-8=2x+3=GQ=HQ. Subtracting 2x from both sides as well as adding 8, we get that x=11 and 2(11)+3=25=GQ by plugging x into 2x+3
Answer:
a) 803
b) The eighth graders.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 4/8 of 584 is 292 students.
7/8 of 584 is 511 students.
11/8 of 584 is 803 students.
b) The eighth graders would win because they have more students participating.
A fraction is numerator over denominator, most of the time whole numbers
Volume: L x W x H
L = 1
W = 1
H = 2
1 x 1 x 2 = 2
The volume would be 2 cubic feet
