Answer:

<h2>x = -17</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-12(x+5)=144\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-12)}\\\\\dfrac{-12(x+5)}{-12}=\dfrac{144}{-12}\\\\x+5=-12\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\\\x+5-5=-12-5\\\\x=-17

144=-12(x+5)

144=-12x-60

204=-12x

204/-12=x

x=-17

2x+y-z=7<br> -z-2y+4z=-15<br> x+2y-5z=17
Artyom0805 [142]
Ok
2x + y - z = 7
-2y +3z = -15
x + 2y - 5z = 17
combine 2nd 3rd
x - 2z = 2
x = 2z + 2
double first statement
4x + 2y - 2z = 14
combine with second statement
4x + z = -1
substitute 2z + 2 for x
8z + 8 + z = -1
combine like terms
9z + 8 = -1
sub 8 from both sides
9z = -9
divide both sides by 9
z = -1
substitute -1 for z in second statement
-2y - 3 = -15
add 3 to both sides
-2y = -12
divide both sides by -2
y = 6
substitute -1 for z into the fifth statement
x = -2 + 2
x = 0

Find the height of a square pyramid that has a volume of 12 cubic feet and a base length of 3 feet. 1.5 feet 2 feet 3 feet 4 fee
zaharov [31]
So the pyramid looks like the one in the picture below.

notice, the bottom of the pyramid is a square, thus is called that, and each side is 3 units long, thus

\bf \textit{volume of a pyramid}\\\\&#10;V=\cfrac{1}{3}Bh~~&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;B=area~of\\&#10;\qquad its~base\\&#10;h=height\\&#10;----------\\&#10;V=12\\&#10;B=\stackrel{3\times 3}{9}&#10;\end{cases}\implies 12=\cfrac{(9)h}{3}\implies 12=3h&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{12}{3}=h\implies 4=h
