Answer:

METHOD 1:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7x+7=5x-21

12x+7=5x-21

12x-5x=-21-7

7x=-28

x=28/7

x=4

METHOD 2:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x

7(x+1)=-21

7x+7=-21

7x=-28

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7x+7=5x-21

12x+7=5x-21

12x-5x=-21-7

7x=-28

x=28/7

x=4

METHOD 2:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x

7(x+1)=-21

7x+7=-21

7x=-28

x=4

The box is 2.1 feet long,2.7 feet wide and 3.2 feet high. What is closest to the total surface area of the box?
galina1969 [7]
So the actually surface area can be split up by dif parts....meaning
2 side is 2.7*3.2*2 = 17.28
2 side is 3.2*2.1*2 = 13.44
2 sides is 2.1*2.7*2=  11.34

then u add up the areas = 42.06ft^2

then u look for what is the clossest...and that is 42gt^2
