Let volleyball be v and let basketball be b.
v : b = 4 : 7, b = 21
v : 21 = 4 : 7
v/21 = 4/7
7*v = 4*21
v = 4*21/7
v = 4*3
v = 12
Volleyballs are 12
Hope this helps.
Answer:
10 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
let the consecutive even integers be n and n + 2 , then
n² - 64 = 3(n + 2) ← distribute parenthesis
n² - 64 = 3n + 6 ( subtract 3n + 6 from both sides )
n² - 3n - 70 = 0 ← in standard form
(n - 10)(n + 7) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
n - 10 = 0 ⇒ n = 10
n + 7 = 0 ⇒ n = - 7
Since n must be a positive even integer then n = 10 and n + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
The 2 numbers are 10 and 12
Answer: 4x+20
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the number outside the parentheses, and multiply it by each number inside it, one at a time.
then you simply just combine them.
volume of the box is 675 cubic inches
A machine produces open boxes using square sheets of plastic.
It is a square sheet so length and width are same
Lets assume length as x so width is also x
The machine cuts equal-sized squares measuring 3 inches on a side from each corner of the sheet.
After turning up the sides the height of the box becomes 3 inches
We know the volume of a box formula
Volume = Length * width * height
We know length is x , width is x and height = 3
So V = x * x * 3
Given volume = 675 cubic inches


Divide by 3 on both sides

Now we take square root on both sides
x = 15
the length of one side of the open box is 15 inches.
