So first let's set up the equation. 
x/4 = 14/16
Now to find the value of x, we cross-multiply. So
x · 16 = 14 · 4
Now we get
16x = 56
To find x we need to get x by itself on one side. To do this we divide 16 on both sides of the equation
16x/16 = 56/16
Simplify and we get
x = 7/2 or 3.5
Hope I helped!

The height of a rectangular prism is 3 feet. The length and width can be expressed as x-1 and x+4. If the volume of the prism is
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume  = 198 ft

length * width * height = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4) * 3 = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4)  = 198/3

(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 66

x*x + x*4 -1*x - 1*4 = 66   {Use FOIL method to multiply}

x² + 4x - x - 4 = 66

x² + 3x - 4 =66

x² + 3x - 4 - 66 = 0

x² + 3x - 70 = 0

Now factorize.

x² + 10x - 7x - 7*10 = 0

x(x +10) - 7(x + 10 ) = 0

(x + 10)(x - 7) = 0

x - 7 = 0 {x + 10 is ignored because measurement cannot be in negative}

x = 7

length = x - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6ft

Width = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 ft

Your thoughts are correct; Ned loses 14 points overall.

The reason the correctly answered questions do not factor into the answer is because that is not what the question is asking. Correct answers are not even mentioned :)
