Solve the absolute value equation.
First subtract 5 from both sides.
|x|+5=18
|x|=13
If the absolute value of x is 13 that x equals 13 and -13. Absolute value means distance from 0.
x=13,-13
Easey peasy
oposite angle is equal
other angles are supplementary (supplementary means add to 180, and a straight line=180 so if you look at 2 lines intersecting and think for a little bit, you wiill see why)
oposite angle=30
other angle is adds to 180
30+other=180
subtract 30
other=150
other is oposite other other
other=other other
150=other other
angles are
150,30,150
Volume without holes = 3 x 6 x 11 = 198 cubic inches.
Calculate volume of one hole:
3.14 x 0.5^2 x 3 = 2.355 cubic inches
There are 3 holes: 3 x 2.355 = 7.065
Subtract volume of the holes from the brick:
198 - 7.065 = 190.935 cubic inches.
Rounded to the nearest tenth: 190.9 cubic inches.
By HA (hypotenuse is the same and angles are equal)
