Alright, let's cross-multiply both sides.
(x-2) will multiply with (x+12)
(x+4) will multiply with (x+2)
FOIL each, making them:
x^2+10x-24 = x^2+6x+8
Bring all x-values to one side:
x^2+10x-24=x^2+6x+8
-x^2 -6x       -x^2 -6x
4x-24=8
    +24 +24
4x=32
/4
x=8

= (√10)^2 - (2√8)^2

= 10 - 2×2×8=10-32

= -22

Mariulka [41]
The volume of a cone:
V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h
r - the radius
h - the height

r=6 \\
h=10 \\ \\
V=\frac{1}{3} \pi \times 6^2 \times 10=\frac{1}{3} \pi \times 36 \times 10=\frac{360}{3} \pi=120\pi

The answer is B. 120π in³.

gulaghasi [49]
Space in the box = volume
volume = length x width x height
box 1 volume = 15 x 20 x 10 = 3000
box 2 volume = 15 x 20 x 14 = 4200
how much space is left = box 2 - box 1 = 1200 inches

Solve this equation: 12−3(3x−5)=12(2x+1)
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

x = -3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute the -3 and 12 within the parenthesis

12 - 9x + 15 = 24x + 12

Now, combine like terms

3 - 9x = 24x + 12

Subtract 24x from both sides of the equation

3 - 33x = 12

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation

- 33x = 9

Divide both sides by -33

x = -9/33

-9/33 can be simplified to -3/11, so the answer is

x = -3/11

I Hope That This Helps! :)
