Answer:

$x = - 10 \\ x = 7$

$2x + 6 = x - 4 \\ 2x + 6 - x = - 4 \\ x + 6 = - 4 \\ x = - 4 - 6 \\ x = - 10 \\ \\ \\ 20x - 8 = 2(9x + 3) \\ 20x - 8 = 18x + 6 \\ 20x - 8 - 18x = 6 \\ 2x - 8 = 6 \\ 2x = 6 + 8 \\ 2x = 14 \\ x = \frac{14}{2} x = 7$

Answer:

a) -10 b) 7

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2(x+ 3) = x - 4

2x + 6 = x - 4

2x - x = -6 - 4

x = -10

b) 4(5x - 2) = 2(9x + 3)

20x - 8 = 18x + 6

20x - 18x = 6 + 8

2x = 14

x = 14/2

x = 7

a mailing tube in the shape of cylinder has a height of 24 inches and a radius of 3 inches. what is the volume, in cubic inches,

TiliK225 [7]

ANSWER

The volume of the mailing tube is 678.6 square inches to the nearest tenth.

EXPLANATION

The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula;

$V=\pi \: {r}^{2} h$

Since the mailing tube is in the form of a cylinder, we use this formula to find its volume.

We substitute h=24 and r=3 to obtain,

$V=\pi \times {3}^{2} \times 24$

$V=216\pi {in}^{2}$

$V=678.6{in}^{2}$
