-1331 -3
If -x = 27, x = -11
a= 6 inches
If x = 125, x = -4
3 State true or false. 4 Evaluate the expression, d + -2d
when d = 4.
-125= ±5 False
False = 16 - (2) = 14
512= 6 d2+3 -2d
343= 7 True

As a motorsport manager you are preparing your team to get ready for the upcoming car
race. You help y t, to get painting work done, to check fuel
mileage, and to plan track topography.
1 Find the length of the cubical boxes in the dashboard, to
t.
27 = 3
125 = 5
1000 = 10
2 The trunk of the car has a length o eters. If you
wanted to k of v eters
each along the length of the trunk, ho you
k k? Draw the correc of boxes
inside the trunk.
Gasoline
Three numbers of Tins can be kept inside
the trunk.
3 r red (c rs is
given by the e ression,
45c - 12 625/5 = 75. Find c.
45c - 12 3 625/5 = 75
45c - 60 =75
45c = 135 c = 3 gallons
4 While racing, the driv evation. Solve the e r
velocit by the racer. Velocity is given by the e ression,
1331 x 12 + 22. Find v.
Velocity = 11 x 12 + 22
= 154 m/s
5 The fuel in the car is low and you need to cov re before you can reach the
refueling station. The total distance d that your car can travel is given by the e ression,
3d = 216 x 4 ether you can reach the refueling station.
3d = 6 x 4 x 2 = 48
Therefore, d = 16 miles
Thus, the car can reach the refuelling station.

Motorsport Management
As a motorsport manager, you have a last-minute project to supervise.
You want to build a cubical designer building next to the race track to monitor the races.
Coordinate with your employees and help them plan the design.
By using different sizes of cubes and following the given steps, let’s design the front of
the building.
1
Volume (in cubic inches) Length “x” (in inches)
different volumes of cubes and enter
8 2
their corresponding lengths in the given
table. 27 3
216 6
Condition: ³
343 7
(x: Length of the cube in inches)
“x” must be an integer. 512 8
2 Keeping in mind that the front view of a cube looks like a square, draw the front view of
the chosen cubes on the given graph.
Condition: The larger cubes should be placed at the bottom of the building, while the
smaller cubes should be at the top.
3 Use a ruler to draw the exact length of the square on the sheet.
4 Be creative! Design and color each cube as you please.
5 Looks like your architect sent you some of the basic designs, use them for reference.
Use the grid sheet provided below
to note down your front view plan!
