-8q+6+5q-3 what does q equal

1 answer:

3 0

In this equation q is equal to 1
STEPS:
-8q+6+3q-3 (original equation)
-3q+3 (combine like terms)
3q=3 (move -3q to the other side so you can divide to get what q is. When you move it over to the other side it becomes positive)
q=1 (divided)

A box has a volume of 192 cubic inches, a length that is twice as long as its width, and a height that is 2 inches greater than

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Therefore the dimension of the cuboid is 8 inches×4 inches ×6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cuboid : A cuboid is a three dimension shape. The length ,breadth and height of a cuboid are not same.

A cuboid has 6 faces.
A cuboid contains 8 vertices.
A cuboid contains 12 edges .
The total surface area of a cuboid is

= 2(length×breadth+breadth×height+length×height) square units

The dimension of a cuboid is written as length×breadth×height.

The volume is( length×breadth×height) cubic units

Given that the volume of the box is 192 cubic inches.

Let x inches be the width of the cuboid.

Since the length is twice as long as its width.

Then length = 2x inches

Again height is 2 inches longer than width.

Then height = (x+2) inches.

Therefore the volume of the cuboid is

$=[x\times 2x\times (x+2)]$ cubic inches

$=[2x^2(x+2)]$ cubic inches

$=(2x^3+4x^2)$ cubic inches

According to the problem,

$2x^3+4x^2=192$

$\Rightarrow 2x^3+4x^2-192=0$

$\Rightarrow 2(x^3+2x^2-96)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^3+2x^2-96)=0$

$\Rightarrow x^3-4x^2+6x^2-24x+24x-96=0$

$\Rightarrow x^2(x-4) +6x(x-4)+24(x-4)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x-4)(x^2+6x+24)=0$

Therefore x=4

Since the all zeros of x²+6x+24 =0 is negative.

Therefore breadth = 4 inches

length=(2×4) inches=8 inches

and height = (4+2)inches = 6 inches.

Therefore the dimension of the cuboid is 8 inches×4 inches ×6 inches.

(1) Snow fall in last week = $3 \frac{1}{2}$ inches

Snow fall in today= $5 \frac{3}{4}$ inches

Let us first change mixed fraction to improper fraction.

$\begin{aligned}&3 \frac{1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\\&5 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{23}{4}\end{aligned}$

Now, make the denominators same.

$3 \frac{1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}=\frac{7 \times 2}{2 \times 2}=\frac{14}{4}$ , $5 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{23}{4}$

Now, find the difference between 14/4 and 23/4.

$\frac{23}{4}-\frac{14}{4}=\frac{9}{4}=2 \frac{1}{4}$

So, compared to last week $2 \frac{1}{4}$ more inches of snow fell today.

(2) Given three times a number, minus nine, equals six times six, divided by four.

Let a number be X.

3X – 9 = 6 × 6/4

(3) To solve the equation:

3X – 9 = 6 × 6/4

3X – 9 = 36/4

3X – 9 = 9

3X = 18

X = 6
