Answer:

<u />

  • <u>36 cubes</u>
  • <u>There are several forms to figure it out: see two different ways explained below.</u>

Explanation:

The first way to figure out <em>how many more cubes Jill will need to add to complete the structure </em>until forming a <em>rectangular prism</em>  is to add the cubes from column to colum,

The first column is complete: it has four rows each with 4 cubes.

The second column (the one next to the right of the first column) has three rows. Then Jill has to add one more row. This is 4 cubes.

The third column has two rows. Then, Jill will need to add two rows with 4 cubes each, for a total of 8 cubes. So far, the count is 4 + 8 = 12 cubes.

The fourth and fifth columns have just one row. Then, Jill will need 3 rows for each column, making it 2 × 3 × 4 = 24 cubes.

The total final count is 12 + 24 = 36 cubes. ← answer

There are different ways to figure out the number of cubes needed to complete the rectangular prism. This is another one:

How many cubes shall the complete pyramid have? : 4 × 4 × 5 = 80 (length × width × height).

How many cubes does the shown incomplete structure have?: 4×4 + 3×4 + 2×4 + 4 + 4 = 16 + 12 + 8 + 4 + 4 = 44.

Difference: 80 - 44 = 36 cubes. ← answer

-4c - 11 = 4c +21<br><br> Please help! I have literally no idea
MissTica
<span> -4c - 11 = 4c +21                                        add 4c to both sides
</span>
<span> -4c - 11 + 4c = 4c + 21 + 4c                        simplify

- 11 = 8c + 21</span>                                <span>               subtract 21 from both sides

- 11 - 21 = 8c + 21 - 21                                </span><span>simplify

- 32 = 8c                                                      divide both sides by 8

c = - 4


That's it






</span>

I hope you got the idea
