I dont think so.
factoring means make simpler
x cubed is already is simple so i dont think you cant. correct me if i am wrong
1st piece = x
2nd piece = x+2
3rd piece = x+2+3 = x+5
37 = x +x+2 + x+5 =
37 = 3x+7
30=3x
x = 30/3 = 10
1st piece = 10 inches
2nd piece = 10+2 = 12 inches
3rd piece = 10+5 = 15 inches
Answer:Kyle’s claim is not reasonable
Step-by-step explanation:
Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with black beads is 5/8.
Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with white beads is 1/4.
Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with black beads and white beads is would be
1/4 + 5/8 = 7/8 = 0.875
Kyle thought that he will cover 6/12 of the string with beads. 6/12 = 0.5
It means that he covered more than 6/12. Kyle's claim was wrong
Let 2k represent the original even number (such that k is an integer)
then 2(k + 1) is the next consecutive even number.
4(2k) - 16 = 2(k + 1)
8k - 16 = 2k + 2
6k = 18
k = 3
since 2k represents the original number, then 2(3) = 6 is the oroginal number
Answer: 6
Cos(x)= adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(18)=x/25 (cross multiply)
25*cos(18)=x
x= 23.78 cm <--- this is rounded to the nearest hundredth.
