<span>We know that OB bisects EC where they intersect would be at point O,
so the two lengths EO and OC must be equal.
2x - 20 = 70 - x
</span>[adding x + 20 to each side]
2x - 20 + x + 20 = 70 - x + x + 20
[simplifying]
<span>3x = 90
</span>[dividing each side by 3]
<span>
x = 30 would be the answer</span>
Answer:
c = (d/a) - b
Step-by-step explanation:
a(c + b) = d
Divide both sides by a
c + b = d/a
subtract b from both sides
c = (d/a) - b
Answer:
17/24
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of each face of a sugar cube is 1*1 = 1 units²
The rectangular box has 6 faces in contact with sugar cubes.
The area of each of two faces is 18*6 = 108 units²
Therefore these two faces touch 2*108 = 216 cubes
There are two other faces each of area 18*8 = 144 units²
Therefore these two faces touch 288 cubes.
There are another two faces, each of area 6*8 = 48 units².
Therefore these faces touch 96 cubes.
The total number of cubes touching the faces of the box are
216 + 288 + 96 = 600
Answer: 600 cubes
