x = -5 is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = –2 and passes through the point (–5, 4)

Solution:

Given that, we have to write the equation of line that is parallel to line x = -2 and passes through point (-5, 4)

From given,

The equation of the line in standard form is x = -2

This is a vertical line, so the parallel line will also be a vertical line of the form:

x = a

Since we are given that the line should pass through the point (-5, 4) then the equation of the line is:

x = -5

Thus the equation of line is found

Mathematical Statement Justification

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given mathematical statement

$4x+3=x+5-2x$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}4x+3=x+5-2x&\text{ Given}\end{array}$

2. Rewrite it as

$4x+3=x-2x+5$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}4x+3=x-2x+5&\text{ Commutative property of addition}\end{array}$

3. Combine like terms $x$ and $-2x:$

$4x+3=-x+5$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}4x+3=-x+5&\text{ Combine like terms}\end{array}$

4. Add $x$ to both sides:

$4x+3+x=-x+5+x\\ \\5x+3=5$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}5x+3=5&\text{ Addition property of equality}\end{array}$

5. Subtract 3 from both sides:

$5x+3-3=5-3\\ \\5x=2$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}5x=2&\text{ Subtraction property of equality}\end{array}$

6. Divide both sides by 5:

$x=\dfrac{2}{5}$

So,

$\begin{array}{cc}x=\dfrac{2}{5}&\text{ Division property of equality}\end{array}$

Use a net to find the lateral area and the total surface area of the cereal box.

ziro4ka [17]

To find the lateral area you will find the area of all 4 faces that are perpendicular to the base.

You will multiply the side by the length (front/back) and the side by the width (sides).

12 x 8 = 96
12 x 2 = 24
120 square inches x 2 = 240 square inches

The lateral area is 240 square inches.

The area of the base is 8 x 2 = 16 square inches.

16 x 2 = 32 square inches

240 square inches + 32 square inches = 272 square inches is the surface area.

Cross products question, 3/5 over x multiplied by 12 over 20 what is x

Nitella [24]

Answer:

9/25x

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5/x ×12/20

3/5×1/x ×12/20

36/100x

Divide both by 4

9/25x

The exact value of x cannot be determined because we don't know what the equation is equated to

So we will have to leave the answer as 9/25x
