X is equal to 11/30 because, using basic moves, you subtract the 2 4/5 from either side to get x by itself. So 3 1/6 - 2 4/5 = 11/30. Then you are left with x = 11/30.
Part A)
Using the Pythagorean theorem you can find the height:
17^2 = 8^2 + x^2
289 = 64 +x^2
x^2 = 289 - 64
x^2 = 225
x = √225
x = 15
The height is 15 cm.
Part B)
Area of the triangular side: 1/2 x 16 x 15 = 120 square cm.
There are two triangles so 120 x 2 = 240 square cm.
One side = 20 x 17 = 340
There are 2 sides so 340 x 2 = 680 square cm.
The bottom is 16 x 20 = 320 square cm.
Total cardboard needed: 240 + 680 + 320 = 1,240 square cm.
Answer:
P = 64
Step-by-step explanation:

So 3 times x+3 is -18 so
3(x+3)=-18
so distribute
3x-9=-18
add 9 to both sides
3x=-27
divide both sides by 3
x=-9
-7.8
The rest can be solved as rational. Negative numbers are not rational.
