Answer:

x=42

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-8)=68

Distribute the 2

2x-16=68

Use the addition property of equality (add 16 to both sides)

2x=68+16

2x=84

Use the division property of equality (divide both sides by 2)

x=84/2

x=42

A can of soup has a radius of 6 inches and a height of 10 inches. How much soup can fill the can if it is filled to the top? Pla
denpristay [2]

A can of soup is a cylinder. We want to know how much soup can fill the can, which means that we are looking for the volume.

Formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = pi x r^2 x h

V = pi x 6^2 x 10

V = pi x 36 x 10

V = 360pi inches^3

Hope this helps! :)
