I love math and i believe tjat the answer to my belief is 2
You are given two equations, solve for one variable in one of the equations. Say you solved for x in the second equation. Then, plug in that value of x in the x of the first equation. Solve this (first) equation for y (as it should become apparent) and you'll get a number value. Plug in this numerical value of y into the y of the second equation. Solve for x in the second equation. And there you have it: (x, y)
In order to figure out what N is you have to isolate it by dividing by 50 on both sides as shown below:
We have an equation for the surface area of a rectangular prism:
A= 2 (w*l+ l*h+ h*w)
Plug l= 16 in, w= 12 in, and h= 5 in into the above equation, we have:
A= 2 (12 in*16 in+ 16 in* 5 in+ 5 in* 12 in)= 664 in^(2).
The final answer is 664 in^(2).
Hope this is helpful~
