Answer: 8

Orignal Equation : 5x + 16 = 56

Step 1 - Subtract 16 from each side to get 5x alone.

5x + 16 - 16 = 56 - 16

5x = 40

Step 2 - Get x alone

5x/5 = 40/5

x = 8

The mother's age is 8 times her son's age. After 6 years, the age of the mother will be 9/2 times her son's age. The present age
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

son = 6 mother = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother = m

son = s

m = 8s

m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)

so

2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)

16s + 12 = 9s + 54

16s - 9s = 54 - 12

7s = 42

s = 42/7 = 6 years old

so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old

You are wrapping a gift box that is 16 inches long, 7 inches wide, and 9 inches tall. Find the amount of wrapping paper you need
Svetach [21]

Answer:

638 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you need to cover just the surface area of the box with no overlaps, and the shape is a rectangular prism, then you need to find the surface area of a rectangular prism.

SA = PH + 2LW

where

P = perimeter of base = 2(L + W),

H = height of prism

L = length of base

W = width of base

SA = 2(16 + 7)(9) + 2(16)(7)

SA = 638

Find the y-intercept and the x-intercept of the line 2x-4y=10
kompoz [17]
Finding y intercept and x intercept is easy:

X intercept will be of the form (x,0) and y intercept will be of the form (0,y)

● If you put x=0 in the equation, you will get y-intercept.

● If you put y=0 in the equation, you will get x-intercept.
______________________________

Given equation: 2x - 4y = 10

◆ Put x = 0
2×0 - 4y = 10
=> -4y = 10
=> y = 10/(-4)
=> y = -5/2

Thus y intercept is (0, -5/2)

◆Put y = 0
2x - 4×0 = 10
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 10/2
=> x = 5

Thus the x intercept is (5,0)
