Answer:

<h2><em><u>x = 7</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

5(x – 3) = x + 13

  • Expand 5(x - 3): 5x - 15

5x - 15 = x + 13

  • Add 15 To Both Sides

5x - 15 + 15 = x + 13 + 15

  • Simplify

5x = x + 28

  • Subtract x From Both Sides

5x - x = x + 28 - x

  • Simplify

4x = 28

  • Divide Both Sides By 4

4x / 4 = 28 / 4

<h2><u><em>x = 7</em></u></h2>

What is the total surface area of the rectangular<br> prism represented by this net?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Total surface area of the rectangular  prism is 150.88 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area of base = area of top

area of base = 5 x 3.1 = 15.5 cm^2

Area of small lateral surface having dimensions 3.1 cm x 7.4 cm is

=3.1 x 7.4 = 22.94 cm^2

Area of big lateral surface having dimensions 5 cm x 7.4 cm is

=5 x 7.4 = 37 cm^2

Total area of prism = 2 x 15.5 + 2 x 22.94 + 2 x 37 = 150.88 cm^2

total surface area of the rectangular  prism is 150.88 cm^2

Solve the systems of equations. <br>​
rewona [7]

Answer:

x = -1 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 3x+3y=−6;−x+y=0

Steps:

I will solve your system by substitution.

−x+y=0;3x+3y=−6

Step: Solve−x+y=0for y:

−x+y+x=0+x(Add x to both sides)

y=x

Step: Substitutexforyin3x+3y=−6:

3x+3y=−6

3x+3x=−6

6x=−6(Simplify both sides of the equation)

6x

6

=

−6

6

(Divide both sides by 6)

x=−1

Step: Substitute−1forxiny=x:

y=x

y=−1

Answer:

x=−1 and y=−1

telo118 [61]

Answer:

2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

16/72 is the same thing as 2/9, just simplified. If you make 16 to 72 in a fraction you get 16/72. You divide them with their GCF which is 8. 16 divided by 8 is 2 and 72 divided by 8 is 9. Therefore the answer is 2/9.
