Answer:
The volume of cube-shaped block is 0.125 cubic feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Edge length of storage container =
Edge length of block =
Putting value we get,
Edge length of block =
Volume of cube-shaped block = Volume of cube
Thus, the volume of cube-shaped block is 0.125 cubic feet.
Rectangle Area = length • width
5x • (x + 2) = area
(5x^2 + 10x) is the area, with no further ways to simplify.
For 1 kilometer, the customary measure is 62/100 miles. The easiest way to think about this is to forget that the units are miles. Instead think of it as money. If I have $1 that means I have 100 out of 100 cents. So if I have 50 cents my fraction is 50/100; and the way we write this is 0.50... if I have 32 cents then my fraction is 32/100 and we write this as 0.32. So if you have 62 cents out of a 100, how would you write that in decimal form?
OK. First we have to figure out names for all the numbers you mentioned.
The mysterious number . . . . . call it Q
One fifth of the number . . . . . 0.2 Q
Five times the number . . . . . . 5 Q
Seven times the number . . . . 7 Q
(One fifth plus five times the number) . . . 5.2 Q
(Seven times the number less 18) . . . . . . 7 Q - 18
You said that these last two things are equal,
so I can write . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 Q - 18 = 5.2 Q
Now, subtract 7Q from each side . . . -18 = -1.8 Q
Divide each side by -1.8 . . . . . . . . . . 10 = Q
Volume of a triangular prism = base area x height
720 = base area x 5
base area = 720 ÷ 5 = 144 ft²
