A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length of 3.5 feet, a width of 10.5 feet, and a height of 6.5 feet. The container is completely filled with contents that weigh, on average, 0.73 pound per cubic foot. What is the weight of the contents in the container, to the nearest pound?

Step-by-step explanation:

The shipping container has the shape of a rectangular prism. Therefore, we would apply the formula for determining the volume of a rectangular prism which is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

From the information given,

Length = 3.5 feet

Width = 10.5 feet

Height = 6.5 feet

Volume of container = 3.5 × 10.5 × 6.5 = 238.875 feet³

If the container is completely filled with contents that weigh, on average, 0.73 pound per cubic foot, then the weight of the contents in the container is

0.73 × 238.875 = 174 pounds

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
