She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a rectangle we multiply two edges together.
since we are looking for the surface area we are actually going to be finding 6 different areas and adding them together (since there are 6 sides to a rectangle)
ok so sides 1 and 2, the edges on the left and right will be equal, and then the four sides in the middle are all going to be equal
2(1x2) + 4(3x2) = 4 + 24 = 28
Yes, in simplest form, both fractions are 1/3 (one over three)
