Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 12 to both sides:

2x + 9 = 5x - 12

2x + 21 = 5x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

21 = 3x

Divide each side by 3:

7 = x

So, x = 7

Question 7

$\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}$

Given - a cone with volume 769?3 ft³ , having a height of 15 ft

To calculate - radius of the cone

We know that ,

$\bold{Volume \: of \: cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi \: r {}^{2} h }\\$

substituting the values in the formula stated above ,

$\bold{769.3 = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times r {}^{2} \times 15} \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \frac{769.3 \times 3}{3.14 \times 15} } \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \cancel\frac{2307.9}{47.1}} \\ \\\bold{ \implies \: r {}^{2} = 49} \\ \\ \bold{\implies \: r = 7 \: ft}$

therefore ,

radius = 7 cm

Answer: H

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see this rectangular prism will have side lengths of 5, 3, 7.

So we can use the fact Surface Area = 2(lh+wh+lw) to get:

2(15 + 35 + 21) = 2(71) = 142

A farmer is dividing 128 eggs into 5 crates , how many eggs will go into each crate?

GaryK [48]

This is a division problem. You can use the standard algorithm of 128/ 5. Or you can create equal groups (draw five circles) and count out eggs until you distribute them all. I would start with 20 in each circle. That would be 20+ 20+ 20+ 20+ 20= 100 Then think 128-100= 28 Next count by 5's. 5+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 5= 25 Then think what is 28-25= 3 so 128/ 5= 25 with a reminder of 3 eggs left over.

Solve [(x+7) x 3-5] / 4 = 7 What is the first step in this equation

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The first step is to slove the numbers in the brackets

Step-by-step explanation:

[(x+7) x -2] / 4 = 7

-2(x+7) / 4 = 7

-2x-14 / 4 = 7

-2x-14 = 28

-2x = 42

x = -21
