Answer:

Just less than 3.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, this problem doesn't have a single answer.  Rather, you are asked to use estimation and educated guesses to determine the length of one side of the middle cube.  

Note that the volume of the first cube is 3^3 = 27, and that the vol. of the third cube is 4^3 = 64.  So we can see right away that all sides of the middle cube have a length which is between 3 and 4.

Suppose I picked s = 3.5 out of the blue and then cubed it:  3.5^3 = 42.875 cubic units.  Much too big!  So try s = 3.25:  3.25^3 = 34.33.  Better, but still too big.  We want a side length that gives us the volume 30 for this middle cube.

Try 3.2^3:  volume is 32.8 (too big)

Try 3.1^3:  vol. is 29.8 (too small)          Try a value slightly larger than 3.1:

Try 3.12^3:  vol. is 30.37 (slightly too large)

Try 3.115^3:  vol. is 30.3 (better, but still slightly too large)

Try 3.113^3:  vol. is 30.2 (better still, but keep on going!)

You'll find that the correct side length is between 3.113 and 3.106.

Round the fraction 7 4/5 to the nearest whole number
Over [174]
Im not sure if you are saying 74/5 or 7 and 4 fifths but in the case you'r saying 74/5 you would first round to see the highest number that 5 can go to without being a decimal. Which would be 70 so you would count how many times 5 can go into 70, which would be 14, so the left over is 4/5 so you would check to see if it can be simplified which it can't so the final answer is 14 and 4/5

A landscaper receives a discount on each plant purchased. The original price of each plant is x dollars. The landscaper purchase
prisoha [69]

Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount is a form of consideration in price or amount given to a customer on a sale of goods. It can be deduced from the question that;

The original price of each plant = $x

Number of plants purchased = 20

Price of the number of plants purchased without discount = $20x

Amount paid for the 20 plants with discount = $(20x - 80)

Thus,

The discount on the 20 plants = $80

Discount on each plant = \frac{total discount on plants}{number of plants purchased}

                                       = \frac{80}{20}

                                       = $4

Discount on each plant = $4

Therefore, each plant was discounted by $4.
