43.54 divided by 3.5= unit rate

<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>

Answer:
39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cylinder:
The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by:

How much paint will Ellis need to paint all the surfaces of the 10 fenceposts?
This is the combined volume of these 10 fenceposts.
They are each 5 feet tall and have a diameter of 1 foot.
Radius is half the diameter, so
. Also 
10 fenceposts:
Each has the same volume, so:

39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.
