2x - 3(x + 4) = -5
2x - 3x - 12 = -5
-x - 12 = -5
-x = -5 + 12
-x = 7
x = -7

The answer is: x = -7.

Hello!

Question 1
We first have to convert everything to yards since the concrete is charged by the cubic yards

15 feet = 5 yards
15 feet = 5 yards
3 inches = 0.08333

Multiply these to find the volume

5 * 5 * 0.08333 = 2.08325

Multiply this by the cost

2.08325 * 46 = 95.83

The answer is C) $95.83

Question 2

You have to find the volume of the first pyramid

The equation we use is $V = \frac{lwh}{3}$

V is volume
l is length
w is width
h is height

Put in the values we know

$V = \frac{16 * 16 * 28}{3}$

Multiply

$V = \frac{7168}{3}$

Divide

V = 2389.3333

Now we use this to find the side length of the second pyramid

$2389.333 = \frac{lw * 112}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 3

<span>7167.999 = lw * 112
</span>
Divide both sides by 112

63.9999 = lw

Since it is a square pyramid we know that sides are equal

63.999 = l^2

Take the square root of both sides

8 = l

The answer is B) 8in

Hope this helps!

Answer: x = 131

Reasoning: Alternate interior angle theorem

The angles shown are inside the parallel lines, so they are interior angles. They are also considered alternate angles because they are on alternating sides of the transversal cut. Alternate interior angles are congruent when we have parallel lines like this.
