Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

7(2x - 5) = 21

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 7:                   2x - 5 = 3
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                2x = 8
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                         x = 4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                  7(2(4) - 5) = 21
  2. Multiply:                             7(8 - 5) = 21
  3. Subtract:                            7(3) = 21
  4. Multiply:                             21 = 21

Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.

How can you find the surface area of a composite solid made up of prisms ? (Help)
sammy [17]
Oh, this is easy. For any prism, you find the surface area by finding the are of all the sides. I will post all surface area formulas here, for reference
Cube:



Surface area = 6 × a2




Right circular cylinder:



Surface area = 2 × pi × r2   +  2 × pi × r × h

pi = 3.14
h is the height
r is the radius


Rectangular prism:



Surface area = 2 × l × w  +  2 × l × h  +  2 × w × h 




l is the length
w is the width
h is the height


Sphere:



Surface area = 4 × pi × r2 

pi = 3.14
r is the radius


Right circular cone:



Surface area = pi × r2  +  pi × r ×( √(h2 + r2)) 

pi = 3.14
r is the radius
h is the height
l is the slant height 


Right square pyramid:



Surface area = s2 + 2 × s × l

s is the length of the base
h is the height
l is the slant height

Help me i beg u plzzzz
Ainat [17]
We can say at month 0 she was 43 inches tall.

And at month 18 she was 52 inches tall.

We can say that x is the number of months and y is her height.

Rise/run
y2-y1/x2-x1
52-43/18-0
9/18
1/2

So the slope is 1/2 (which is what you are looking for.) and if you were to write an equation it would be y=1/2x+43
