What is the answer for -2x = 34

Mathematics

Hello!

Answer:

\boxed{X=-17}

<u><em>*The answer must have a NEGATIVE sign!*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you divide by -2 from both sides of an equation.

\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{34}{-2}

Then, you divide by the numbers from left to right.

34/-2=-17

\boxed{X=-17}, which is our the correct answer.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

:D

-Charlie

Thank you!

To solve:

-2x = 34
----- -----
-2 -2

(-2x means -2 times x, so to undo this we need to divide by -2 on both sides)

x = -17

Then you do basic division (knowing that a positive divided by a negative results in a negative answer). And that's it!

Volume of the prism = 75 cubic feet

Solution:

The image given is a rectangular prism (or) a cuboid.

Area of base = l × b = 25 square feet

Height of the prism = 3 feet

Volume of the prism = l × b × h

                                  = (l × b) × h

                                  = 25 × 3

                                  = 75 cubic feet

Volume of the prism = 75 cubic feet

Hence, the volume of the prism is 75 cubic feet.
