Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 1,000 to a number 10 times, it will only increase the number by 10,000, not multiply the number by 1,000.

Each cube in this solid figure is a unit cube.<br><br> What is the volume of this solid figure?

padilas [110]

Answer:

The volume of this given solid figure is 18 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given the volume of 1 small cube = 1 cubic units

Now, counting the total cubes in the given solid figure, we get

Number of cubes in base row = 10

Number of cubes in middle row = 6

Number of cubes in top most row = 2

So, the total number of cubes in the figure = 10 + 6 + 2 = 18 cubes

So, the volume of 18 cubes = 18 ( Volume of 1 small cube)

= 18 x (1 cubic units) = 18 cubic units

Hence, the volume of this given solid figure is 18 cubic units.

Mrs Tan bought 4 times as many pens as notebooks and each notebook cost $8.20 more than each pen. She spent $26 more on the book

lilavasa [31]

Let x be the cost of 1 pen
then cost of 1 notebook = x + 8.20

Let y be the number of pens Tan buys
then number of notebooks Tan buys = y/4

She spent $26 more on books than on pens which means

Cost of notebooks - Cost of pens = 26
(x + 8.20) * y/4 - xy = 26

Sinplifying it

(xy + 8.20y)/4 - xy = 26
(xy + 8.20y - 4xy)/4 = 26
8.20y - 3xy = 104

She spent $394 which means

Cost of notebooks + Cost of pens = 394
(x + 8.20) * y/4 + xy = 394

Simplifying it

(xy + 8.20y)/4 + xy = 394
(xy + 8.20y + 4xy)/4 = 394
8.20y + 5xy = 1576

Now, we have two equations,

(1) 8.20y - 3xy = 104
(2) 8.20y + 5xy = 1576

Now we need to find a third equation with either x or y as the subject of any of both the previous equations.

Let's make y the subject of (2) equation

8.20y + 5xy = 1576
y(8.20 + 5X) = 1576
(3) y = 1576/(8.20 + 5x)

Let's substitute the new value of y from (3) into (1) because we rearranged (2) to from (3)

8.20y - 3xy = 104
y(8.20 - 3x) = 104
y = 104/(8.20 - 3x)
1576/(8.20 + 5x) = 104/(8.20 - 3x)
1576 * (8.20 - 3x) = 104 * (8.20 + 5x)
12923.2 - 4728x = 852.8 + 520x
12923.2 - 852.8 = 4728x + 520x
12070.4 = 5248x
12070.4/5248 = x
x = 2.3

Now find the value of y by substituting the value of x in either equation, preferably (3)

y = 1576/(8.20 + 5x)
y = 1576/(8.20 + 5 * (2.3))
y = 80

Therefore cost of 1 notebook = x + 8.20 = 2.3 + 8.20 = $10.50

What is the solution to the equation x/3+x/6=7/2

Alchen [17]

Answer:

x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

x/3 + x/6 = 7/2

2x + x = 21

3x = 21

(divide 3 on both sides)

x = 7
