2n+9+5n=30 combine like terms on left side
7n+9=30 subtract 9 from both sides
7n=21 divide both sides by 7
n=3
Answer:
Slope is 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2y=10
subtract 5x from both sides
-2y=-5x+10
Then you divide -2 on both sides
y=5/2x-5
Which will result 5/2 as the slope
The pints of paint that Mike needs to buy in order to paint 4 boxes is 9 pints.
How many pints is needed?
The first step is determine the total surface area of a box.
Total surface area of a cuboid = 2 (lw + wh + lh)
where:
l = length
w = width
h = height
2 x[ (5 x 9/2) + (9/2 x 7/2) + (5 x 7/2) ]
2 x ( 45/2 + 63/4 + 35/2) = 111.5ft
The second step is to determine the total surface area of 4 boxes:
111.5 x 4 = 446
Now, divide 446 by 50
446 / 50 = 9 pints
