Answer:
x=±
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the pyramid is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height of the figure. For this item, for the figures to have the same volume,
V = B1H1 = B2H2
Then, we substitute the given values, and since we are not given the shape of the base and the volume of the entire figure, we can just solve it through the way below.
(20 in)(21 in) = (x in)(84 in)
The value of x in the problem is 5 inches.
19. What you know is that HK+KJ = HJ. If HJ = 25, the sum of the two equations will equal this length.
x-5+5x-12=25 First, combine your like terms. You will end up with 6x-17=25. Add the opposite of -17 to both sides. 6x = 42 Divide both sides by 6. x = 7. Substitute x=7 for your original expression of x-5, 7-5=2
20. (5x-6)/2 = x+6 Multiply each side by 2. 5x-6 = 2x +12 Add 6 to each side 5x = 2x + 18 then subtract 2x from both sides as well. 3x = 18 Finally divide each side by 3. x=6 To find the length of the remaining segment, substitute this value into (5x-6)/2. This results in each side equaling a distance of 12.
21. On the number line, the distance of FG is 16 units. If the distance of FP is 1/4 of FG, you would simply divide 16 by 4. The distance of FP is 4 and P lies at 8 on your number line.
23. The distance of SP is x+4 and ST=4x. Since P is the midpoint, you only have one half of the line as x+4, if you were to double it, you would find that 2x+8 = 4x. Balance and solve for x, subtract 2x from both sides. 8=2x Divide each side by 4, 8/4 = 4x/4 resulting in x=2. If ST equals 4x, substitute and solve, 4(2) = 8

Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
