years.

Reduced by means subtracted.

Subtract twice my age from 400 to get 244:

400

Answer:

69 is her age

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation:

400 - 2x = 262

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 400 from both sides

400 (-400) - 2x = 262 (-400)

-2x = -138

Next, divide -2 from both sides

(-2x)/-2 = (-138)/-2

x = -138/-2

x = 69

I need help wit one & two please help

23 is less than 25 which means it's closer to 20, so you would round it down to 20. 1.75 is over 0.50, 1/2, so you would round it up to 2. If you multiply 2 and 20 you would get 40.

Number two gets the same explanation just with different numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry: is the line that makes the parabola split in exactly half and lines up with the vertex. For that parabola x=1 is the line of symetry.

The vertex is where the minimum of the graph is, on this graph you can eyeball it to be (1,-9)

The x-intercept is where y is 0 so that's where the lines intersex with the x-axis. (-2,0) and (4,0)

The y-intercept of the function is where x is 0 and where the parabola intersects with the y-axis. On this graph it would be (0,-8)

Hope that helps :)

A box is 12 centimeters wide ,12 centimeters long, and 15 centimeters tall. What is the total surface area of 4 such boxes?
Grace [21]
First you want to find the surface area of one box
SA=2(l*w)+2(h*l)+2(h*w)
SA=2(12*12)+2(15*12)+2(15*12)
SA=2(144)+2(180)+2(180)
SA=288+360+360
SA=1008 cm² is for one box
Multiply by 4 to get for 4 boxes
4*1008=4032 cm²
