<u>Answer:</u>
The value of x is in the solution set of 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2 is -10
<u>Solution:</u>
Need to determine which value of x from given option is solution set of 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2
Lets first solve 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2
3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2
=> 3x – 12 ≥ 5x + 2
=> 3x – 5x ≥ 12 + 2
=> -2x ≥ 14
=> -x ≥ 7
=> x ≤ -7
All the values of x which are less than or equal to -7 is solution set of 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2. From given option there is only one value that is -10 which is less than -7
Hence from given option -10 is solution set of 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2.

Answer:
2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Here the area and the lengths of the two parallel sides of this trapezoid are given:
A = 7m^2, b1 = 3 m and b2 = 4 m. What's missing is the width of the trapezoid.
First we write out the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
b1 + b2
A = --------------- * w, where w represents the width of the figure.
2
We need to solve this for the width, w. Multiplying both sides of the above equation by
2
------------
b1 + b2
results in
2A
------------ = w
b1 + b2
Substituting 7 m^2 for A, 3 m for b1 and 4 m for b2 results in
2(7 m^2) 14 m^2
w = ------------------ = ---------------- = 2 m
(3 + 4) m 7 m
The missing dimension is the width of the figure. This width is 2 m.
Answer: The box would have 99% of its volume taken up.
Step-by-step explanation: The box has dimensions as follows;
Length = 6 inches
Width = 5 inches
Height = 10 inches
Therefore the volume of the box shall become
Volume = L x W x H
Volume = 6 x 5 x 10
Volume = 300 cubic inches
Also a 3 inch cube would have its volume given as follows (
Volume = 3 x 3 x 3 (All sides of a cube has equal lengths)
Volume = 27 cubic inches
To find out how many of 3-inch cubes can fit in, divide 300 by 27 and that equals 11.11.
Hence you can have at most 11 cubes in the box. The total volume of 11 cubes is given as 11 x 27 which equals 297. Therefore, the percentage of the box taken up completely by the cubes is given as;
Percentage = (Volume of cubes/Volume of box) x 100
Percentage = (297/300) x 100
Percentage = 99
Therefore the box would have 99% of its volume taken up by the cubes.
