Answer:

x = -9/22 or -0.409 to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiplying we get:

(3x + 1)(x - 5) = (3x + 2)(x + 2)

3x^2 - 14x - 5 = 3x^2 +8x + 4

3x^2 - 3x^2 - 14x - 8x = 4 + 5

-22x = 9

x = -9/22

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rectangle is the shape of each cut surface which is 10in by 8 in. Since the block was already painted with glitter, she needs to paint both sides of the cut surface only, 2*8in * 10in = 160in^2.

2. Each cut will have a surface area of 10in * 8in = 80in^2
