Hello!
I was looking for this answer as well, but I took the quiz and got it correct. The answer is 5 units.
good luck!
Use this rule: <em>(x^a)^b = x^ab</em>
3(x + 2)^3/5 + 2 = 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
3(x + 2)^3/5 = 27 - 3
Simplify 27 - 3 to 24
3(x + 2)^3/5 = 24
Divide both sides by 3
(x + 2)^3/5 = 24/3
Simplify 24/3 to 8
(x + 2)^3/5 = 8
Take the cube root of both sides
x + 2 = 3/5√8
Invert and multiply
x + 2 = 8^5/3
Calculate
x + 2 = 2^5
Simplify 2^5 to 32
x + 2 = 32
Subtract 2 from both sides
x = 32 - 2
Simplify 32 - 3 to 30
<u>x = 30</u>
13: 72.25
14: 52
For 14, you need to split the figure into a triangle and rectangle.
