The currently rented double-occupancy apartments are 38 apartments.

Step-by-step explanation:

An apartment has rented x apartments with two occupants and 16 apartments with one occupant and the total occupants were 92, these can be written in the equation as

2x+16=92

To find the number of double occupancy apartments that are rented, we need to solve the equation and find the value of x.

2x+16=92

Subtracting 16 from both sides of the equation,

\begin{aligned}&2 x=92-16\\&2 x=76\end{aligned}

Dividing both sides by 2, we get,

\begin{aligned}\frac{2 x}{2} &=\frac{76}{2} \\x &=38\end{aligned}

Thus, there are 38 double-occupancy apartments are currently rented.

D. X=3cm
Since the triangles are similar, just set up a proportion to solve for x.

4/8=x/6. Then just cross multiply and solve from there.

What's the total surface area of a covered box with a length of 4 ft, a width of 3 ft, and a height of 6 ft? Question 17 options
anygoal [31]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

A. 108 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of each face using the dimensions 4, 3 and 6. Remember, there are 6 total faces with 3 sets of congruent faces. The faces are rectangular, so the formula A = l × w will be used to solve for the area of each:

2(4 ·3) = 2(12) = 24 ft²

2(4· 6) = 2(24) = 48 ft²

2(3 · 6) = 2(18) = 36ft².

Add up the areas of the faces:

24 + 48 + 36 = 108 ft².
