Factor out the common term; 3
(3(x + 1))^2 = 36
Use the Multiplication Distributive Property; (xy)^a = x^ay^a
3^2(x + 1)^2 = 36
Simplify 3^2 to 9
9(x + 1)^2 = 36
Divide both sides by 9
(x + 1)^2 = 36/9
Simplify 36/9 to 4
(x + 1)^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides
x + 1 = √4
Since 2 * 2 = 4, the square root of 2 is 2
x + 1 = 2
Break down the problem into these 2 equations
x + 1 = 2
x + 1 = -2
Solve the first equation; x + 1 = 2
x = 1
Solve the second equation; x + 1 = -2
x = -3
Collect all solutions;
<u>x = 1, -3</u>

Answer:
About 2105.98
Step-by-step explanation:
31% of 3354 is 1039.74
3354-1039.74=2314.26
9% of 2314.26 is 208.2834
2314.26-2018.2834=2105.9766
Answer:
D. She used the beach's ball's diameter when she should have used the radius
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of the beach ball, using the volume of a sphere is the right formula to use, which is ⁴/3πr³.
The formula she used is correct.
Since the diameter of the ball is assumed to be 12 inches, what is needed to find the volume is the radius.
Radius (r) = ½(diameter) = ½(12) = 6 in.
This is where Emily made a mistake.
She used the diameter of the beach ball instead of its radius (r) which is needed in the equation.
She should have gotten,
V = ⁴/3(3.14)(6)² = 904.32 cubic inches
4 shirts can be worn with one pair of pants twice and the shoes can be paired with each outfit. So I am going to say 8 outfits.
