12x=4(x-5)

distributive property to get rid of parenthesis     12x=4x-20

subtract x from one side to get the variable on one side       8x=-20

divide 8 by -20

x=-2.5

natita [175]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1, setting variables:

We already know the <em>exact</em> height of the prism: 6 feet. We can set the unknown width as variable <em>x</em>, and length as <em>x+2 </em>(<u>length is two feet more than width</u>).

Step 2, writing equations:

Great! We have everything now. Let us write the equation by<u> substituting our variables in</u>:

V=l*w*h\\V=6w(w+2)\\

Ok! Let us <u>expand</u> the equation:

<u />V=6w^2+12w<u />

\fbox{A}

<em>I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)</em>

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line that goes through (5,4) and (-2,-3)?
Snowcat [4.5K]

First, let us solve for the slope of the line which it intersects with:

m’ = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

m’ = (-3 – 4) / (-2 – 5)

m’ = 1

 

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal, therefore:

m = - 1 / m’

m = - 1 / 1

m = -1

 

<span>So the slope of the line is -1.</span>
