Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(x+4) - 3 = 1

First get the sqrt all by itself on one side of the equation. Add 3 to both sides of the equation.

sqrt(x+4) = 1 + 3

sqrt(x+4) = 4

To "fix" the sqrt, that is, "undo it" and get rid of it, you have to SQUARE both sides of the equation.

(sqrt(x+4))^2 = 4^2

x + 4 = 16

subtract 4 to finish up.

x = 12

Check:

sqrt(12 + 4) - 3 = 1

sqrt16 - 3 = 1

4 - 3 = 1

1 = 1 Check!

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars  
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
 And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55 
 We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55 
 We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
 2y-20y=13.50-70.2
 -18y=-56.7
 y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
 
 Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
 x+5*3.15=17.55
 x+15.75=17.55
 x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
  
 Problem 4.
 Let w = number of wood bats sold
 Let m = number of metal bats sold
 
 From sales information we have: w + m = 23
 24w+30m=606 
 Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second. 
 24*(23-m)+30m=606
 552-24m+30m=606
 6m=54
 m=9 = number of metal bats sold
 Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.

Hello,

There is a mistake: it is 816 cm² !!! (an area)

length are multiplied by 2,
so area are mutiplied by 2²=4
Area B=816*4=3264 (cm²)

I really need help with this question!

Same as all the other ones like this.

Since the two figures are similar . . .

-- The ratio of of their volumes is  R³ .

-- The ratio of their surface areas is  R² .

-- The ratio of their dimensions is  R .

So  R³  is        729 / 2744 .

Take the cube root of that and you'll have  R .

Then square R and you'll have the ratio of their surface areas.
