2x + 4 = 12
We're simply just trying to isolate x.
So, we must get x onto it's own side of the equal sign :)
Our first step is to subtract 4 from both sides.
2x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4
Simplify.
2x = 8
Then, we divide both sides by 2.
2x ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2
Simplify.
x = 4
----------
To check your work, simply plug in the value of x into x in the original equation.
In this problem, x = 4, so plug in 4 for x.
2x + 4 = 12
2(4) + 4 = 12
Simplify.
8 + 4 = 12
12 = 12
Therefore, x = 4

Answer:
132
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a parallelogram is b*h
(6+5)(12)=132
16 m³
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Here we are going to find the volume of square pyramid.
Volume of square pyramid = 
× 
× 
Here base = 4 m
Height = 3 m
Step 2:
Volume = (1/3) × (4 × 4) × 3
= 16 m³
36.89 total divided by the 8.6 gallons he bought = 4.2 so the price per gallon would be $4.20
Answer: Height = 20 inches
Width = 14 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The aquarium is rectangular. The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular box is expressed as
Volume = LWH
Where L,W and H represents the length, width and height of the box.
The aquarium holding African cichlids is 6 inches higher than it is wide. It means that
H = W + 6
Its length is 33 inches, and its volume is 9240 cubic inches. It means that
9240 = 33W(W + 6)
9240/33 = W(W + 6)
280 = W² + 6W
W² + 6W + (6/2)² = 280 + (6/2)²
(W + 3)² = 280 + 9 = 289
Taking square root of both sides, it becomes
W + 3 = √289 = 17
W = 17 - 3
W = 14
H = W + 6 = 14 + 6
H = 20
