M=(-22)
m+(-10)=-33
add 10 to -33
M=(-22)
Answer:
7 worms
Step-by-step explanation:
Let each can have x worms, so we can say
Luis has 4x worms
Diego has 3x + 2 worms
Cecil has 2x worms
Since, in total they have 65 worms, we can write and equation and solve:
4x + 3x + 2 + 2x = 65
9x + 2 = 65
9x = 63
x = 63/9
x = 7
There are 7 worms in each can.
<u>Question Correction</u>
Simon fills a container with 38 1-in, cubes. The container is a box of dimension 4 in. by 3 in. by 4 in.,How many more 1 in cubes does the container need to be completely filled?
Answer:
10 1-in cubes
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we determine the Volume of the box.
Volume of a Rectangular Prism =Length X Height X Width
Volume of the box = 4 X 3 X 4= 48 cubic inches
To fill the box container, we would need 48 1 in cubes.
Since Simon already filled the container with 38 1-in, cubes.
Number of 1-in. cubes required to fill the box
=48 -38
=10.
Simon would need 10 1-in cubes to fill the box.
Answer:
x = 5 and -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the intersecting chord theorem which states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.
Hence:
let
a = 6, b = 5, c = x+1 and d = x
Therefore, ab = cd
6*5 = x(x+1)
30 = x²+x
x²+x - 30 = 0
x²+ 6x - 5x - 30 = 0
x(x+6) - 5(x+6) =0
(x-5)(x+6) = 0
x-5 =0 and x+6 = 0
x = 5 and -6
