Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what a tape diagram is but I can give you the equation and the answer.

Let Victor have x points

Let Maria have y points

y = x + 424

y/x = 5/3                     Cross multiply

3y = 5x                       Divide by 3

y = 5x/3                      I Could have just multiplied by x

y = x + 424

5x/3 = x + 424           Multiply both sides by 3

5x = 3x + 1272           Subtract 3x from both sides.

5x-3x = 1272              Combine the left.

2x = 1272                    Divide by 2

2x/2 = 1272/2

x = 636

Victor Scored 636 points

Maria Scored 636 + 424 = 1060

A flower box is 3 ft. Long, 2 3/4 ft. Wide, and 1/2 ft. Deep. How many cubic feet of dirt can it hold? A. 4 1/8 B. 5 3/4 C. 6 1/
pochemuha

Answer:

The box can hold 4 1/8 cubic feet of dirt

Step-by-step explanation:

What we simply have to find here is the volume of dirt it can take

To get this, we have to multiply the dimensions of the box

We have this as follows

Volume or box = length * width * height

Volume of box = 2 3/4 * 1/2 * 3

Volume of box = 11/4 * 3 * 1/2 = 33/8 = 4 1/8 cubic feet
