Answer: 62

Step-by-step explanation: Set up your equation

  1. 21+x=2x-41 because the number (x) that 21 is added to is 41 <em>less than</em> (so subtraction) <em>twice </em>(so multiply the number x by 2) the number (x).
  2. Get the x's on one side by subtracting the single x
  3. 21=x-41
  4. Now add 41 to both sides to completely isolate x
  5. 62=x
  6. So, your answer is x=62. The number is 62.

Check your work. 62+21=83. 2(62)= 124. 124-41=83. Both equations equal 83, so the solution is correct.

Can someone help with an explanation? This is finding Surface Area.​
Y_Kistochka [10]
The answer should be 95in^2

Explanation:

You’re essentially just finding the area of all the shapes on the triangle and adding them together.

Area of a triangle = 1/2•b•h
Area of a square = l•w or just s2

The area of the triangles given what we have in the diagram can be found with
1/2•5•7 = 17.5

There are 4 triangles so you multiply 17.5 by 4 which gives 70

The base of the triangle (the square) = 25

70+25=95
