7 0

Answer: There is one solution to the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the number of solutions to the following equation :

$12x+6=5x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Since the given equation is linear in one variable x, so it will have only one solution.

The solution of equation (i) is given by

$12x+6=5x\\\\\Rightarrow 12x-5x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{6}{7}.$

Thus, there is one solution to the given equation.

Find the lateral area of the regular prism with height h , if the base of the prism is: Equilateral triangle with the side 4 cm

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

the lateral area of the regular prism is 30 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

the base of the regular prism, b 4cm

height of the prism, h = 2.5 cm

The lateral area of the regular prism is calculated as the product of the base perimeter and height of the prism.

L.A = P x h

where;

P is the perimeter of the base = 3 x 4cm (equilateral triangle has equal sides)

P = 12 cm

L.A = 12 cm x 2.5 cm

L.A = 30 cm²

Therefore, the lateral area of the regular prism is 30 cm².
