Solve for x: -6(x + 4) + 9 > -5(x + 6)

Mathematics

Answer:

x < 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first expand the parentheses on both sides. Remember that when expanding parentheses, the result will be the sum of the products of the "outside number" with each of the "inside number".

On the left, the parenthetical expression is: -6(x + 4). Here, the outside term is -6 and the inside terms are x and 4. So:

-6(x + 4) = -6 * x + (-6) * 4 = -6x - 24

On the right, the parenthetical expression is: -5(x + 6). Here, the outside term is -5 and the inside terms are x and 6. So:

-5(x + 6) = -5 * x + (-5) * 6 = -5x - 30

Now put these back in:

-6(x + 4) + 9 > -5(x + 6)

-6x - 24 + 9 > -5x - 30

-6x - 15 > -5x - 30

x < 15

Thus the answer is x < 15.

Hope this helps!

Hey there! I’m happy to help!

The surface area is basically the area of the surface of the shape. So, if you have a cube, it’s the area of all of the surface of the cube, not anything inside.

We see that we have a net of this square pyramid. If we fold it up, the square and four triangles will make up the surface of the 3D shape we see. So, we need to find the area of all of these shapes.

SQUARE
To find the area of a square, you multiply one of the sides by itself (all the sides are the same)

10(10)=100

TRIANGLES
To find the area of a triangle, you take the base and multiply the height and then divide it by two.

10(12)=120
120/2=60
Since we have four triangles, we multiply it by four.
60(4)=240

Finally, we add this all up.

240+100=340

Therefore, the answer is 340 square inches.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

For each parallelogram find the length of the base or height the first parallelogram has the area of 60 meters square the base i
Lynna [10]

Answer:

  5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the area of a parallelogram is the product of its base length and height:

  area = base × height

Fill in the given values, and solve for height:

  60 m² = (12 m) × height

  (60 m²)/(12 m) = height = (60/12) m

  height = 5 m

The height is 5 meters.
