It is 4 times as tall.

Let h₁ be the height of the box with the smaller base and h₂ be the height of the box with the larger base.

The volume of the box with the smaller base is given by 2(2)(h₁).  The volume of the box with the larger base is given by 4(4)(h₂). Since they are equal:

2(2)(h₁)=4(4)(h₂)
4h₁=16h₂

Dividing both sides by 4,
4h₁/4 = 16h₂/4
h₁ = 4h₂

The height of the box with the smaller base is 4 times the height of the box with the larger base.

<u><em>x=8 is the correct answer.</em></u> First you had to subtract by 5 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, \frac{x}{4}+5-5=7-5. And then simplify, and it gave us, \frac{x}{4}=2. Then you can multiply by 4 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, \frac{4x}{4}=2*4. And finally simplify, and it gave us the answer is 2*4=8, or <u><em>x=8 is the correct answer.</em></u> Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie

Parker marks sixths on number line. He writes 5/6 just before 1. What fraction does he write on the first mark to the right of 1
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

If he is writing sixths, then we have multiples of 1/6.

this is:

0*(1/6) = 0

1*(1/6) = 1/6

.

.

.

5*(1/6) = 5/6 (the numer he wrote at the left of 1)

6*(1/6) =  6/6 = 1

7*(1/6) = 7/6

So the number next to 1, (at the right of 1) must be 7/6.

You also can find it by adding 1/6 to 1.

1/6 + 1 = 1/6 + 6/6 = 7/6.
