0.18 x 4 = 0.72
0.72 is the product
1. Calculate the volume of entire cube as if it was a solid rectangle:
Length x width x height=
20x16x12 = 3,940 cubic inches
2. Calculate the volume of the "missing"
Piece and subtract:
Length x width x height=
20x8x6 = 960 cubic inches
(notice you can find the height of the missing piece by subtracting 12-6)
So your answer is 3,940-960 = 2,980 cubic inches inside the steps
Recall that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: 2Length+2Width
With this in mind, we have that the original design is 96×60, where 90 is length and 60 is width, so it would simply be:
2(96+l) + 2 (60+w) = New Perimeter
Or simplified, it'd be:
2l + 2w + 312 = New Perimeter
using pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(12x)^2 + (16x)^2 = 10^2
square each term
144x^2 + 256x^2 = 100
combine like terms
400 x^2 = 100
divide by 400 on each side
x^2 = 1/4
take the square root on each side
x = 1/2
Answer: x=1/2
138c since 1 pound of apples=43c
