-4x - 6 = 10

To solve the equation, you will have to isolate the x. Because of the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

-4x - 6 = 10

Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First add 6 to both sides

-4x - 6 (+6) = 10 (+6)

-4x = 10 + 6

-4x = 16

Isolate the x, divide - 4 from both sides

-4x/-4 = 16/-4

x = 16/-4

x = -4

-4 is your answer

hope this helps

Answer:

For a trapezium of height H, parallel side 1 X, and parallel side 2 Y, the area is:

A = (1/2)*H*(X + Y)

with this we can complete the table.

a)

Here we know:

X = 7cm

Y = 11cm

H = 6cm

Then: A = (1/2)*6cm*(7cm + 11cm) = 54 cm^2

b)

Here we know:

X = 8 m

Y = 10 m

A = 126 m^2

Then:

126 m^2 = 0.5*H*(8m + 10m)

126 m^2 = H*9m

126 m^2/9m = H = 14m

Then the height of this trapezoid is 14m

c)

Here we know:

X = 5mm

H = 8mm

A = 72 mm^2

Then:

72 mm^2 = 0.5*8mm*(5mm + Y)

72 mm^2 = 4mm*(5mm + Y)

72mm^2/4mm = 5mm + Y

18 mm = 5mm + Y

18mm - 5mm = Y

13 mm = Y

Then the parallel side 2 is 13 mm long.

Farmer Jan is a vegetable farmer who divides his field between broccoli crops and spinach crops. Last year, he grew 6 tons of br
ankoles [38]

Answer:

There is no unique solution to this problem.

There are infinitely many solutions to this problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B denotes broccoli crop

Let S denotes spinach crop

Last year, he grew 6 tons of broccoli per acre and 9 tons of spinach per acre, for a total of 93 tons of vegetables.

Mathematically,

6B + 9S = 93        eq. 1

This year, he grew 2 tons of broccoli per acre and 3 tons of spinach per acre, for a total of 31 tons of vegetables.

Mathematically,

2B + 3S = 31

2B = 31 -  3S

B = (31 -  3S)/2      eq. 2

Substitute eq. 2 into eq. 1

6B + 9S = 93

6[(31 -  3S)/2] + 9S = 93

3(31 -  3S) + 9S = 93

93 - 9S + 9S = 93

- 9S + 9S = 93 - 93

0 = 0

Therefore, there is no unique solution to this problem.

Which means that there are infinitely many solutions to this problem.

Find the surface area of the figure.<br> PLEASE HELP!
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The total surface area is: 468 in^2  which agrees with answer a)

Step-by-step explanation:

The three lateral faces of the prism are rectangles, and the sums of their areas give:

12 * 10 + 9 * 10 + 15 * 10 = 360 in^2

The area of each triangular base (notice it is a right triangle) is given by:

9 * 12 / 2 = 54 in^2, so we add TWO of these to the three rectangular faces:

Total surface = 360 in^2 + 2 * 54 in^2 = 468 in^2
