B) 5(x-6)
you factor out 5 for each term
Lateral Area means Area of all four triangles
Now area of 1 triangle = 
= 
square meters
Now for four triangles we multiply by 4
So
Lateral area of pyramid =
m^2
that is Option D
Des Moines - 40F
Austin Carson City - 42F
Jackson - 73F
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do t one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.
Isolate the x. First, add 9 and subtract 4x from both sides:
6x (-4x) - 9 (+9) = 4x (-4x) - 15 (+9)
6x - 4x = -15 + 9
Combine like terms:
6x - 4x = -15 + 9
2x = -6
Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:
(2x)/2 = (-6)/2
x = -6/2
x = -3
x = -3 is your answer.

Important things to note:
- PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals Parenthesis, Exponents (& Roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
- If there is an equal sign and the same variable on both sides, you are trying to isolate that variable.
- Remember to follow the division rule. If you are dividing two negative numbers, your answer will be positive. If you are multiplying two negative numbers, your answer will be positive. If you are dividing or multiplying one positive and one negative number, your answer will be negative.

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + x=2
Subtract 2 from each side
x^2 + x-2=2-2
x^2 + x-2=0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to -2 and add to 1
2*-1 = -2
2+-1 =1
(x-1)(x+2)=0
Using the zero product property
x-1 = 0 x+2 = 0
x=1 x = -2
Product of the roots
1*-2 = -2
