Answer:

  V = a³/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:

  V = a³

  V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³

  V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube

The green shaded region does not represent the solution to the system of linear inequalities given below. Explain why not.
Sliva [168]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The area of solutions of the first inequality lies above an orange straight line.

The area of solutions of the second inequality lies below a blue straight line.

These areas are crossed in the yellow field.

The green field does not meet a condition of the second inequality and therefore does not enter the area of the solution of a system of inequalities

Bob and Ted are in the plumbing business. Bob can do the plumbing hook-up for a new house in 4 hours; Ted does the same job in 6
Stels [109]
Where 1/4 represents Bob and 1/6 represents Ted...
1/4x + 1/6x = 1
Multiply the two so there is no fraction by the GCF of 12. 
3x + 2x = 12
Add 3x and 2x.
5x = 12
Divide by 5.
x = 12
Plug this value in.
With that, the answer is 2 hours and 24 minutes with x = 12 meaning 144 minutes.

Marie has 55 in her bank account and she would like to buy a video game system that cost 395. Marie save $60 for each hour she w
irinina [24]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

She already has $55, so we can subtract that from $395.

395-55 = 340

So now we can figure out how many hours she needs to work. We'll set up the problem like this, where x = the number of hours needed:

60x = 340

Divide each side by 60: x = 5.666(repeating decimal)

Rounding up to the nearest hour, Marie needs to work 6 hours.
