Answer:7x-4= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3.

The answer is 7x-4= 3 beacuse:

(a.  whenever you have something less than , the first number in the sentence (in this cacse 4) goes after the second number (in this case 7) with a subtraction sign in the middle. (imagine this equation looking like 7-4 <u>for now)</u>.Thats a little trick i use whenever i have to write "something less than something"

(b. okay so now we know it has to be 7 times somethig -4=3, but now we just need to write the "product of 7 and a number" in proper form. in other words, whenever you get somethig times a number, it is always going to be  that number with an x right next to it. so thats why i made it 7x.

(c. "equals 3" is easy because you just turn it into an "=3".

(d. Now put it together. "4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3." becomes 7x-4=3.

Hope this helps :)) Also brainliest would be appreciated, worked pretty hard on this ! :D

The correct answer is 64 square units.

The area of the complete shape would be 100 square inches.
10 x 10 = 100

However, we have to remove the 4 corners. Each of the corners is 9 square inches. 3 x 3 = 9

100 - 4(9) = 64

Simplify <br><br> 3a^2b^3c^5<br> __________________<br><br> 8x^4y^3z
Jobisdone [24]
We have to rewrite the expression so that it has no denominator.
For example:
1 / x = x^(-1)
1/8 = 8^(-1); 1/x^(4) = x^(-4); 1/y^(3) = y^(-3); 1/z = z^(-1).
\frac{3a ^{2} b ^{3}c ^{5}  }{8 x^{4}y ^{3}z  }= \\ =3 a^{2}b ^{3}c^{5}8^{-1}x ^{-4}y^{-3}z^{-1}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the area by cutting it across in the middle into a trapezoid and a rectangle.

The trapezoid will have:

height = 10-4 = 6ft

top = 9-6 = 3ft

bottom = 8ft

So its area = 1/2*(3+8)*6 = 33 ft^2

The rectangle will have:

length = 10ft

width = 6ft

So its area = 10*6 = 60 ft^2

Total area = 60+33 = 93 ft^2
