Your answer would be either A...or D.
Step-by-step explanation:
look at the picture !
she has to paint actually 6 rectangles :
the 3 tops of the 3 stairs.
and the 3 vertical front boards (the front of each step of the stairs).
what is the area of these rectangles ? summing up all 6 - that is the surface area to be painted.
each top rectangle is clearly
82×19 (19 cm deep) = 1558 cm²
each front board is
82×12 (12 cm high) = 984 cm²
so, in total we have
3×1558 + 3×984 = 4674 + 2952 = 7626 cm²
as surface area to be painted.
Your answer would be
A. Adding 7x to both sides of the equation
And in doing so, you'd start your first step to having "like terms" on "like sides"
by having all "x's" on the right side of your equivalent sign "="
The answer is 0.00125139043
2y is 2y, so it is equal to 17383.
IF you were looking for just y, than the answer is 17383/2 = y = 8691.5
