Answer:

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x - 3

Distribute the -2

-8 + 2x = 12x -3

Add 3 to both sides

-5 + 2x = 12x

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Y - (-4) = (5 - (-4))/(2 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y + 4 = (5 + 4)/(2 + 1) (x + 1)
y + 4 = 9/3 (x + 1)
y + 4 = 3(x + 1)
y + 4 = 3x + 3
y = 3x + 3 - 4
y = 3x - 1

Pls help!! Find the volume of the flower vase. Round to the nearest tenth.
Contact [7]

Answer:

Volume = 1596.2 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = volume of box - volume of cylinder

Volume = (LxWxH) - 1/3 (pi * r^2 *h)

Volume = (10 x 12 x 20) -1/3 (3.14 x 8^2 x 12)

Volume = 2400 - 803.8

Volume = 1596.2 cm^3
