It depends on how you count them. If you describe them by their dimensions, lowest one first, you can have
1 x 1 x 18
1 x 2 x 9
1 x 3 x 6
2 x 3 x 3
Of course, these dimensions can be put in any order.
Distribute 3 throught the parentheses
Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
Collect like terms
Divide both sides of the equation by -3
Answer:
25 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the equation we see that the thumb drives cost $200 which is why that is being subtracted. To calculate the break-even number of sales we need to make a total of 200 to cover the costs. We calculate this by matching the equation to 0 and solving for x...
0 = 8x - 200 ... add 200 on both sides
200 = 8x ... divide both sides by 8
25 = x
Finally, we can see that the committee will break even after selling 25 thumb drives which would make them $200 to cover all of their costs.
<span>There are 2 pints of blue and 2 pints of yellow in the bucket.
To be 80% yellow, the new color will be (100%-80%=) 20% blue.
2 pints is 20% of (2 pints/0.20=) 10 pints.
With 4 pints in the bucket, to make 10 pints you should add
(10 pints-4 pints=) 6 more pints of yellow paint.
ANSWER: You should add 6 pints of yellow to the 4 pints of green in the bucket to make the new color that is 80% yellow.</span>
