The length is 3 inches more than the width period the width is 2 inches more than the height. The volume is 120 in.³. What is the dimensions of the box

the dimension of the box is : 8 by 5 by 3

Length = 8

Width = 5

Height = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x,y and z represent the length, width and height of the box.

Given;

The length is 3 inches more than the width

x = y+3 1

the width is 2 inches more than the height

y = z + 2

z = y-2 2

Volume = length×width×height = xyz = 120 in^3

xyz = 120 3

Substituting equation 1 and 2 into 3

(y+3)×y ×(y-2) = 120

y(y^2+y-6) = 120

y^3 + y^2 - 6y - 120 = 0

Solving the polynomial equation we have;

y = 5

From equation 1;

x = y+3 = 5+3

x = 8

From equation 2;

z = y-2 = 5-2

z = 3

Therefore, the dimension of the box is

8 by 5 by 3

Length = 8

Width = 5

Height = 3

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
