Okay. In my opinion, all the class has to do is simplify the expressions and compare. But they want to substitute instead.
Well then.
First, let's notice that these are linear expressions, meaning that if they are equivalent then all their values match up.
Number 1 is not a good one. Just because they're both positive doesn't mean anything; they have to be <em>the same.</em>
This also eliminates 3.
Number 2 is a good one, but it's not as reliable. If, for instance, the two expressions are <em>not </em>equivalent and you get lucky enough to pick that one value they intersect at (or have in common), then you'd be wrong when you say they are equivalent.
Number 4 makes the most sense because if both expressions are equivalent, then every value matches up. If not, then only one will. So having two values to substitute will most definitely answer the class question.
Hope this helps, let me know if I messed up! ;)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A square pyramid with the maximum volume that can fit inside a cube has a same base as a cube ( 24 cm x 24 cm ) . The height of the pyramid is also same as a side length of a cube ( h = 24 cm ).
The volume of the pyramid:
V = 1/3 · 24² · 24 = 1/3 · 576 · 24 = 4,608 cm³
Answer:
The maximum volume of the pyramid is 4,608 cm³.
In order to change from 35 to 62, we have to add 27. So, the question becomes: which percentage of 35 is 27?
To answer this question, we set this simple equation
And solving for x we have
So, if you change from 35 to 62, you have an increase of about 77%
