Answer:
152 
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the total surface area of a cuboid is the sum of the surface area of all six of its faces.
We also know that each opposing side has the same surface area. Thus the total surface area is equal to:
()
First, figure out what you do and don't know....
You do know that 3 times the sum of a number and 4 is 18 more than the number....you don't know the number so you make it the variable x
now take 3 times the sum of a number and 4 and make that an expression 3x+4 this expression is the same or equal to the sum of x and 18 x+18
3x+4=x+18
2x+4=18
2x=14
x=7
hope this helped :)
Answer:
x = 1 or x = -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
2 x^2 + x - 3 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:
(x - 1) (2 x + 3) = 0
Split into two equations:
x - 1 = 0 or 2 x + 3 = 0
Add 1 to both sides:
x = 1 or 2 x + 3 = 0
Subtract 3 from both sides:
x = 1 or 2 x = -3
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: x = 1 or x = -3/2
