Expand,

xa-xb=mx-mc

Transfer all "x" terms to one side,

xa-xb-mx=-mc

Factor x out of the LHS.

x(a-b-m)=-mc

Divide both sides by (a-b-m).

x= -\frac{mc}{a-b-m}

Need to find surface area
quester [9]

Find the area for each shape.

For the triangle face you would do 4 times 6 divided by 2. Then times it by 2 because there are two triangle faces.

For the rectangle face do 5 times 12, then times 3 because there are 3 triangle faces.

Finally add both numbers together to get the surface area.

The function h(x)=x^2+3 and g(x)=x^2-6. if g(x)=h(x)+k, what us the value of k
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The value of k is -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Subsitute

g(x)=h(x)+k

(x^2-6)=(x^2+3)+k

x^2-6=x^2+3+k

subtract x^2+3 from both sides (or add -x^2-3 to both sides)

-9=k

k=-9
