Answer:

z = 18.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4z − 6 − 6) = 170 − 46

2(4z - 12) = 124

8z - 24 = 124

8z = 148

z = 18.5

I made a fort for my pet porcupine by connecting two boxes. the first box is 10 meters long, 7 meters wide, and 5 meters high. t

Lerok [7]

First, let's find the volume of the two boxes.

V = lwhV=lwhV, equals, l, w, h

V=10\times7\times5V=10×7×5V, equals, 10, times, 7, times, 5

V= \blue{350} \text{ cubic meters}V=350 cubic metersV, equals, start color blue, 350, end color blue, space, c, u, b, i, c, space, m, e, t, e, r, s

V = lwhV=lwhV, equals, l, w, h

V=4\times10\times8V=4×10×8V, equals, 4, times, 10, times, 8

V= \pink{320} \text{ cubic meters}V=320 cubic metersV, equals, start color pink, 320, end color pink, space, c, u, b, i, c, space, m, e, t, e, r, s

Hint #22 / 3

Since my porcupine can play in both boxes, we need to add the volumes of the two boxes.

\blue{350}+\pink{320}=\green{670}350+320=670start color blue, 350, end color blue, plus, start color pink, 320, end color pink, equals, start color green, 670, end color green

Hint #33 / 3

My porcupine has \green{670}670start color green, 670, end color green cubic meters of space to play in his fort.

670 is your answer i hoped this help please rate me thanks :)

Maura is 5 years younger than her sister Cara. Seven years ago, Maura was half as old as her sister. How old is Maura now?

masha68 [24]

Let's call Maura's age now M and Cara's age now C.

We know Maura is five years younger than Cara. In symbols that is, M - 5 = C

We also know that 7 years ago Maura's age was half of Cara's. Maura's age 7 years ago was M-7 and Cara's age seven years ago was C-7. Since Maura's age (7 years ago) was half of Cara's we can write in symbols: $M-7= \frac{1}{2}(C-7)$

Let's take that last equation and substitute C - 5 for M (this is because according to our first equation these are equal). When we do this we get an equation with only C as the variable and solve for C as follows:

$M-7= \frac{1}{2}(C-7)$
$C-5-7= \frac{1}{2}(C-7)$
$C-12= \frac{1}{2}C-( \frac{1}{2})(7)$
$C-12= .5C-3.5$
$.5C-12= -3.5$
$.5C= 8.5$
$C= 17$

Cara is 17. Since Maura is 5 years younger she is 12.

As a check, seven years ago Cara was 10 and Maura was 5. It is the case that Maura was half Cara's age seven years ago.
