A + s = 279
s = 2a
a + 2a = 279
3a = 279
a = 279/3
a = 93 <=== adult
s = 2a
s = 2(93)
s = 186 ....students
7. You are finding the area of the box. Not the cube, just a surface. Length times width of the surface. Eliminate other numbers and multiply
24.5×19.5
then
26×24.5
8. You are doing the same thing almost. Word problems are scary, but look for the numbers.
4inch ×8inch × 12inch
Find the volume
Multiply the volume by 3, that'd one answer
Devide the ORIGINAL volume by 2. don't divide the volume you multiplied by 3.
Answer:
The slope is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
(-4,6) (3,-8)
(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
((-8) - (6)) / ((3) - (-4))
(-8 - 6) / (3 + 4)
-14/7 = -2
Suzie needs enough trim to cover the perimeter of the triangle. So she need enough to cover each side of 18. Thus 18 x 3 = 54 and 54 is your answer.
Rearrange x/4-(-5)=0
Simplify x/4
-5 = -5/1 = -5*4/4
x- (-5*4)/4 = x+20/4
x+ 20/4 = 0
x+20/4 * 4 = 0*4
The equation now takes the shape: x+20=0
subtract 20 from both sides of the equation: x=-20
Answer: x=-20
