X equals weight of permit fish
x + 10X = 132
11x = 132
x= 12
permit fish= 12
tarpon=120
280 yards are equal to 840 feet
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
Box 2
Explanation:
In these expressions, x represents the width of the box. We are asked about widths greater than 1; let's us 1.1 as an example:
Box 1:
3(1.1⁵) = 4.83153
Box 2:
4(1.1⁵)-(1.1⁴) = 6.44204 - 1.4641 = 4.97794
With a difference as small as a tenth, the volume of box 2 is larger. The larger the difference in width, the larger the difference in volume, and the volume of box 2 will be larger every time.
