158, because to solve this question we first need to know the formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism which is A=<span>2<span>(<span><span><span>wl</span>+<span>hl</span></span>+<span>hw</span></span><span>) then you just need to input the numbers like so A=2(5*3+8*3+8*5) then when you simplify this down you get A=2(79) then distribute like so so A=158
Enjoy!=)</span></span></span>
Answer: there is only one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms by performing the opposite operation of subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation
The 4x's will cross out on the right
4x - 4x = 0x = 0
On the left:
2x - 4x = -2x
Now the equation looks like:
-2x + 3 = 2
Continue to combine like terms by subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
3 - 3 = 0
On the right:
2 - 3 = -1
Equation:
-2x = -1
Isolate x by performing the opposite operation of dividing -2 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
-2x ÷ -2 = 1
On the right:
-1 ÷ -2 = 1/2
x= 1/2
Answer:
108 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle is given as ½*base*height
The base of the given triangle = h + 6
height = h
Algebraic expression for its area = 
Evaluate the area if h is given as 12 inches.
Plug in the value of h into the algebraic expression:



Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A. is wrong because having a different height for each seedling and not trying to keep it equal is simply worse than making sure the heights are identical.
B. Completely wrong because it would likely result in 1 plot having more melon seedlings than the other.
C. Correct because it makes sure the seedlings are the same height at the beginning of the experiment, allowing less randomness in the experiment.
D. Putting the taller of a each pair for 1 plot makes it the experiment rigged in favor of the plot with taller seedlings
E. Same issue as D.
