The average density of styrofoam is 1.00 kg/m^3. if a styrofoam cooler is made with outside dimensions of 50.0 x 35.0 x 30.0 cm and the uniform thickness of the styrofoam is 3.00 cm (including the lid), what is the volume of the styrofoam used in cubic inches? the answer should be 1100 cubic inches, but i do not know how to get there

Step-by-step explanation:

The closest by default to 1100 cubic inches is taking two side and two front covers and that would give you 1080.12 cubic inches since two of the covers you must subtract 3 cm per side and side which would add 6 cm in total so outside would be 35 cm and indoor 29 cm . According the graph

29*50*3= 4350 * 2 lid = 8700 cm3

30*50*3= 4500*2 lid = 9000 cm3

So 8700+9000 = 17700 cm3 to inches 3 = 1080.12 cm3

he used the algebra tiles correctly.

step-by-step explanation:

given : 3x(2x-1)

solution :

since he used algebra tiles .

armando's solution is the same in the solution shown in figure

as he distributed 2x into x and x and wrote them vertically

and also write   -1 vertically

and 3x into x and x and x and wrote it horizontally

performing the multiplication in the algebra tiles we get

and solving the given expression :

3x(2x-1)

since solving the expression using tiles   and solving the expression algebraically we get the same answer

thus   we can choose the first statement as the answer to this problem which is "he used the algebra tiles correctly".
