Answer:

c. 5x - 3 = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Jones deducts $3 from each of her 5 children's allowances this week because they didn't finish their chores. They then received a total of $125 in allowance. a. 5(x - 3) = 125

b. 5x - 15 = 125

c. 5x - 3 = 125

d. 5x = 140

Solution:

Let x represent the allowance for each of Mrs. Jones children. Since she deducts $3 from each children because they didn't finish their chores, the allowance for each child becomes x - 3.

There are 5 children, hence the allowance for the 5 children would be:

5(x-3)

Since they received a total of $125 in allowance, hence:

5(x-3) = 125

5x - 15 = 125

5x = 125 + 15

5x = 140

Option c is wrong

A cube-shaped box has a volume of 1/8 of a cubic meter. What is the perimeter of each of its
belka [17]

Given:

The volume of a cube-shaped box is \dfrac{1}{8} cubic meter.

To find:

The perimeter of each of its faces.

Solution:

Let "a" be the side length of the cube shaped box. Then the volume of the box is:

V=(side)^3

V=a^3

It is given that the volume of a cube-shaped box is \dfrac{1}{8}  cubic meter.

a^3=\dfrac{1}{8}

Taking cube root on both sides, we get

a=\dfrac{1}{2}

Now, the perimeter of each face of a cube is:

P=4a

Where, a is the side length of the cube.

Putting a=\dfrac{1}{2}, we get

P=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}

P=2

Therefore, the perimeter of each face of a cube-shaped box is 2 meters.
