We can let x be the number of boxes sold for the first week. We can as well express the number of boxes for the second and third week through x using the statements provided.
Since the girl scout sold 5 more boxes on the second week, we have (x + 5) number of boxes sold for the second week. Now, for the third week, since it's double that of the second week, we have 2(x + 5). Thus, we have the following:
first week: x
second week: x + 5
third week: 2(x + 5)
Given that the total number of boxes sold for the three weeks is 431. We have
x + (x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = 431
x + x + 5 + 2x + 10 = 431
4x + 15 = 431
4x = 431 - 15
4x = 416
x = 104
We have now the value of x. Using this, we can find the values for the second and third week.
x + 5 = `104 + 5 = 109
2(x + 5) = 2(109) = 218
Answer:
first week: 104
second week: 109
third week: 218
Answer:
you would save .66 per pack so .66×3=1.98
Step-by-step explanation:
9.99÷3=3.33, 3.99-3.33=.66
Given the dimensions of locker box are length = 6 feet, width = 4 feet, and height = 10 feet.
Wayne wants to cover the box, so we need to find its total surface area. The box is in the shape of rectangular prism.
We know the formula for total surface area of rectangular prism is given as follows :-

T.S.A. = 2·(6 x 4 + 4 x 10 + 10 x 6) = 2·(24 + 40 + 60) = 2·(124) = 248 feet²
Surface Area = 248 squared feet
To cover the locker with waterproof covering, we needed to find the surface area of the box. As we multiplied two dimensions at a time in the formula, so the units are "squared feet".
Hence, option A is correct i.e. squared feet or ft².
This is a word problem signifying an algebraic expression.
Translating this to mathematics:

add 4 to both sides.
divide 16 to both sides.
this is:
