David's age: x
Joshua: x + 5
Simon: (x+5) + 4 or x + 9

Simon's age + David's age = 15
(x+9) + (x) = 15
2x = 15 - 9
2x/2 = 6/2
x = 3

The ages of the boys:

David: x = 3 years old
Joshua: 3+5 = 8 years old
Simon: 3+9 = 12 years old

Which best explains why the equation 3x + 8 = 3x - 5 has no solutions?
Bas_tet [7]
The best answer for the question is C - The equation is not true for any value of x.

The reason for this is if we subtract 3x from both sides, there are no variables left. since there are no variables left, we know since first grade that 8 does not equal to -5....with that being true, there is no value we can assign to x to make this a true statement.

10x = 50

x = 50/10

x = 5 inches

Then you do the same with the lenght.

Which statement about the net is true?
Schach [20]
The net cannot be folded to form a pyramid because the faces that are not a base are not all triangles

If you fold this net up, you will get a triangular prism, NOT A PYRAMID.

A pyramid can have ANY polygon as its base, as long as all the other rest of the shapes are triangles.

Depending on the base, the number of triangles in a net of a pyramid must match the number of sides its particular base has.

For example, if you have a square pyramid turned into a net:
The base is a square (4 sides)
There should be 4 triangles on each side.

Because a pyramid is where all the triangles must meet up at a point.

Hope this helps!
