5x+2=4x+5

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x+2=4x+5

Step 1: Subtract 4x from both sides.

5x+2−4x=4x+5−4x

x+2=5

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.

x+2−2=5−2

x=3

Answer: x=3

How many triangles can be made from the following three lengths: 3.1 centimeters, 9.8 centimeters, and 5.2 centimeters?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

none

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three sides

Adding the two smallest sides together must be bigger than the third side

3.1+5.2 > 9.8

8.3> 9.8

This is false, so we cannot make a triangle

Julian has partially filled the prism below with 16 unit cubes.

Gre4nikov [31]

He needs 20 more unit cubes to completely fill the prism

<h3>How to determine the number of unit cubes?</h3>

The dimension of the prism is given as;

4 by 3 by 3

The volume is calculated as:

Volume = 4 * 3 * 3

Volume = 36

He has already filled 16 units.

So, the units remaining is

Remaining = 36 - 16

Evaluate

Remaining = 20

Hence, he needs 20 more unit cubes to completely fill the prism
