Answer:

w=4

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a prism is SA= 2lw+2lh+2hw

We are trying to find out the width if the SA is 240 square inches, length is 12 inches, and the height is 5 inches. Let's plug these numbers into the equation.

240=(2*12*w)+(2*12*5)+(2*5*w)

24w+120+10w

240= 34w+120

-120 -120

120= 34w

120/34 = 34w/34

w is approximately equal to 3.5 which can be rounded to 4

w=4

Hope this is right! It was confusing at first but I understood it!

The sum of two numbers is -10.5.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-5 and -5.5;

-12.5 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two negative addends, can be added together to give -10.5.

For example:

(-5) + (-5.5) = -5 - 5.5 = -10.5

Also, it is possible for one of the addends to be negative while the other is positive, and their sum will give us -10.5.

For example:

The sum of -12.5 and 2 will give us -10.5.

We are adding a positive and a negative number here. As usual, we will subtract the smaller number from the bigger number, while the result will carry the sign of the bigger number, which in this case is negative sign.

Thus:

(-12.5) + (2) = -10.5

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using elimination.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The cost of hardbook is $9 and cost of paperback is $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price for hardback book and y be the price for paperback book.

Mr. Yamamoto purchased 42 new hardcover books and 64 new paperback books, which cost a total of $698.

We can write the equation as:

$42x + 64y = 698$

He also purchased 42 new hardcover books and 58 new paperback books, which cost a total of $668.

We can write the equation as:

$42x + 58y = 668$

We have to use the elimination method to solve the two equations.

We eliminate x by subtracting the two equations.

$42x + 64y-(42x + 58y) = 698 - 668\\\Rightarrow 6y = 30\\\Rightarrow y = 5\\42x + 64(5) = 698\\\\\Rightarrow x = \displaystyle\frac{698 - 64(5)}{42}\\\\\Rightarrow x = 9$

Thus, the cost of hardbook is $9 and cost of paperback is $5.
