The answer to your question is: .75 = 3x - .03
How to solve it:
x = the cost of a pack of gum twenty years ago
.75 = 3x - .03
+ .03 + .03
.78 = 3x
/ 3 / 3
.26 = x
If a pack of gum now costs 75 cents, which is 3 cents less than three times what a pack would have cost 20 years ago, then a pack of gum would have cost 26 cents.
Figure on top is 8 times 9 (to find volume)
the figure on top has a volume of 72 cm<span>^3
the volume of the lower figure:
3 times 9 times 5 = 135 cm</span><span>^3
72+135=207 cm</span><span>^3
the volume of both figures is 207 cm</span><span>^3</span>
