What is the difference between cross-section and intersection in geometry?

A cross-section is the shape that would be exposed when cutting straight through a 3-D object. for example, cutting horizontally through a regular cone would expose a circle.

an intersection is where 2 or more shapes (does not matter how many dimensions) overlap. for example, the point at which two lines overlap is the intersection. or the area that two overlapping circles share is the intersection.

Answer: Sabrina read 65 pages on the second and third days

Step-by-step explanation:

45 + 2x = 175

45 - 45 + 2x = 175 -45

2x = 130

2x/2 = 130/2

x = 65

CHECK: 45 + 65 +65 = 175
