18 - 2[x + (x-5)]
First I would get rid of the inside parenthesis by distributing the + to everything inside and end up with;

18 - 2[x + x - 5]
Then I'd combine like terms inside the brackets
18 - 2[2x - 5]
Then I'd multiply what is inside the brackets by the -2
18 - 4x + 10
I'd combine like terms and end up with:

28 - 4x......or rewritten as -4x + 28

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets name the missing point as "x"

8^2 + x^2 = 17^2

=> 64 + x^2 = 289

=> x^2 = 289 - 64

=> x^2 = 225

=> x = 15

The formula for the slant height of a cone is , where S is surface area of the cone. Use the formula to find the slant height, l
liq [111]

we know that

The formula of the surface area of the cone is equal to

SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl

where

SA is the surface area

r is the radius of the cone

l is the slant height

in this problem we have

SA=500\pi\ ft^{2}\\r=15\ ft\\l=?

Solve the formula for l

SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl\\ \\\pi rl=SA-\pi r^{2} \\ \\l=\frac{SA-\pi r^{2} }{\pi r}

substitute the values

l=\frac{500\pi -\pi 15^{2} }{\pi15}\\ \\l=\frac{275}{15}\ ft\\ \\l=\frac{55}{3}\ ft\\ \\l=18\frac{1}{3}\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The slant height is 18\frac{1}{3}\ ft
