Connor uses a rectangular shoe box to make a home for the centipedes he found outside. The base of the shoe box is 30 in². He adds soil to the box until the level of the soil is 5 inches tall. He then fills the rest of the box with dead plants and leaves. The volume of the dead plants and leaves he added was 90 in³. What is the height of the section he filled with dead plants and leaves?

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.

answer: i think you should do the math and pay attention in class : )

step-by-step explanation:

that is truly what   think but if i get the answer i will

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
