For me personally, the easiest way to do this is by isolating the x² term, and finding the square root of both sides. The hardest way (well actually, the longest way) would be to use the quadratic formula. It just complicates things unnecessarily.

Mademuasel [1]
You'll do the (whole)(outside)= (whole)(outside) so, set it up like this: (5+3)3= (x+4)4now work it out with PEMDAS: 15+9=4x+16combine like terms: 24= 4x+16subtract the 16 from each side: 8=4xlastly, divide by 4 on each side to get x=2

got this from someone who answered this for me

Find the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3" and a height of 12"
Natalija [7]

Here's the formula you need to use:

The volume of any cylinder is = (pi) x (radius)² x (height) .

Take that formula.
Write your "3 inches" in place of "radius".
Write your "12 inches" in place of "height".
Write "3.14" in place of "pi".
Do the arithmetic, and bada-bing, you'll have the volume.

A deck is in the shape of a right triangle. The area of the deck is 44 m². The length of one side of the deck next to the right
Andrews [41]
11m
The area of a triangle is bh/2. If we know the height (8m), we can plug it into a=bh/2 for a=8h/2 or a=4h or a/4=h
Since we know the area (44m^2), we can put that in for 44/4=h or h=11 metres.

Pradip and Pam have each a plate of apple slices in orange slices the ratio of apple slices to the total number of slices on pra
Zolol [24]

Answer:

pradis has more orange slices

reason:The ratio of apple slices to the total number of slices on Praxis plate is 4 to 11. This means for every 11 slices in Praxis plate, 4 of them are apple slices and 7 of them are orange slices. This also shows the total number of slices in Praxis plate is a multiple of 11.

First possibility of total number of slices in Praxis plate is 11. Another possibility of total number of slices in Praxis plate is 11 x 2 = 22. Since, it is given that total number of slices are not more than 20, so 22 slices are not possible in Praxis plate. So, the only possibility is 11 slices. From here we can conclude that: Number of slices  in Pam Plate:

The ratio of the total number of slices to orange slices on Pam plate is 13 to 6. This means for every 13 slices in Pam's plate there are 6 orange slices and 7 apple slices. This also show the total number of slices in Pam's plate is a multiple of 13.

The first possibility of total number of slices in Pam's plate is 13. The next possibility is 13 x 2 = 26 slices. But since the number of slices cannot be above 20, the only possibility is that there are 13 slices in Pam's plate. From here we can conclude that:
