What is the solution to the following question

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

Distribute,

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

Rearrange terms,

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

Distribute,

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

Add the numbers,

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

Subtract 2 from both sides,

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

2x + 2 - 2 = -3x + 17 - 2

2x  = -3x + 17 - 2

2x  = -3x + 15

Add 3x to both sides,

2x  = -3x + 15

2x + 3x  = -3x + 3x + 15

5x  = -3x + 3x + 15

5x  =  15

Divide both sides by the same factor (15),

5x  =  15

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

Hence, the answer is 3.

Find the surface area of the rectangular box below
REY [17]

Answer:

SA = 904 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area (SA) of a cuboid: 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

  • l = 36 in.
  • w = 10 in.
  • h = 2 in.

Substitute the given values and multiply:

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(36)(10) + 2(10)(2) + 2(2)(36)

SA = 2(360) + 2(20) + 2(72)

SA = 720 + 40 + 144

SA = 904 in.²

Hope this helps!
