Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5
Answer:
6(base) x 3.5(Height) = 21, 21 divided by 2 (x 1/2) = 10.5
10.5(area of triangle) x 7.75(width) = 81.375
Formula of an area of a triangle:
BH x 1/2
Base x Height x 1/2(basically just dividing by 2)
Now the base:
1.5 x 7.75 x 6 = 69.75
Now let's add the two given volumes:
81.375+ 69.75 = 151.125 ft^3 is your answer.
