Answer:

x = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3 = -21

add 3 to both sides

x - 3 + 3 = -21 + 3

x = -18

sidenote: you can add anything to both sides of an equation, and it'll still be true. for example, 2 = 2, if you add 1 to both sides you get 3=3 which is still true.

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=-18}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, we are trying to find the value of x. Basically, x is a placeholder for a number that is unknown. Some number minus 3 is equal to 21.

Our goal is to find x. To do this we want to isolate x on one side of the equation

x-3=-21

Let's add 3 to both sides.

x-3 + 3 = -21+3\\\\-3 + 3 = 0\\\\x = -21+3\\\\x=-18

Hope this helped!

How much wrapping is needed for a package that is shaped like a cube<br> 16 in. on each edge?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1536 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is basically asking for the surface area so knowing that is a cube all the sides are equal so one side would be 16(16) which is 256 in ^2.  The knowing that there is 6 sides you would multiply it by 6 which is 256(6)= 1536^2
