1) Simplify the problem

This involves combining variables

2-5=-3

Now that is -3+2x= 5x+15

2) Find the hidden variable.

Now that the problem is in order you can find the hidden variable of x.

So think what number in place of x makes this equation true?

There are may ways you can solve for x, including the substitution method.

The first step i'd take is distributing the right side, by multiplying everything in the parentheses by 5 , so ; 2+2x-5=5x+15

then you could gather similar or like terms on one side, by moving all the x terms to the right, and all the regular terms to the left. to do this, you do the same thing on both sides of the equation

 2 +2x -5   = 5x +15      
    -2x -15 = -2x -15

2-5-15 = 3x

Help its lateee and i suck at this

Answer:

1.  Identify the problem: Packaging boxes use too much material and create waste

2. What are the equations for the volume and surface area of a cube and rectangular prism?

Volume of a cube: Vcube = L x L x L = L3

Surface area of a cube: SAcube = 6 x (L x L) = 6L2

Volume of a rectangular prism: VRP = L x W x H = LWH

Surface area of a rectangular prism: SARP = 2 x (L x W) + 2 x (L x H) + 2 x (W x H) = 2(LW + LH + WH)

3. What is the difference in surface area of the packages below? (Note that they have the same volume.)

SAcube = 6L2

= 6 (20 cm)2

= 2,400 cm2

SARP = 2(LW + LH + WH) = 2 (20cm x 10cm + 20cm x 40cm + 10cm x 40cm) = 2,800 cm2

SARP – SAcube = 2,800 cm2

– 2,400cm2

= 400 cm

Mr. Clark claims that he has a coin that is weighted so that the probability of heads is 40%. To test this, his students flip th
Brrunno [24]
While I'm unsure what the word choices were, his claim is likely to be true. 

Since he claims the probability of heads is 40%, that should be what we see in an experiment.  0.38 is very close to 0.40, or 40%, so this is true.  Therefore his claim is likely to be true, and the probability of tails should be about 60%.

A circle cuts the x-axis at (4,0) and (14,0), and cuts the y-axis at (0,6) and (0,8). Find it's equation
gayaneshka [121]
It is not a circle but you can find the equation of the ellipse.
To do this we need to work out the major and minor radii and the centre
The centre is at (9, 7)
The major (y) radius is 1 and the minor (x) radius is 5
Therefore the equation is (x-9)/5 + (y-7)/1 = 1
