Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Calvin: incorrect, sign error

Greg: incorrect, has no relationship to the given expression

Ruben: incorrect, sign error

Equivalent expresssion: 7 92(4x -11)

Explanation:

The two terms on the right, -8x and +22, have even coefficients, so a factor of 2 can be factored out. If we do that, then these two terms become ...

... 2(-8x/2 +22/2) = 2(-4x +11)

We could, instead, factor out -2 so the x-coefficient inside parentheses is positive:

... -2(-8x/-2 +22/-2) = -2(4x -11)

Note that the signs of the two terms inside parentheses are different no matter which way we do it.

Equivalent expressions

Calvin could have written: 7 -2(4x -11)

Ruben could have written: 7 +2(-4x +11)

Greg could have written: 8(2 -x) -1. He would have rearranged the expression to 16 -8x -1 before doing so.

the volume of a rectangular pyramid with a length of 7 feet, a width of 6 feet, and a height of 4.5 feet.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Volume = 63 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a cube or a rectangular prism, the formula is

(L x W x H)/3. In other words, it is the length of the prism, times the width of the prism, times the height of the prism, whole divided by three, since it has a "triangular shape."

Let's substitute in values for these letters, L, W, and H. You said the length was 7, the width was 6, and the height was 4.5. Therefore, it will result in

(7 x 6 x 4.5)/3. That results in 189/3, which is 63.

Hope this helped!!!
