Okay so basically all you do is first subtract 2 from 2 and from 17. positive minus a negative 2 cancels out. Once this is done, you simplify your answer to 5x<15. Then, you divide both sides by 5 to get the variable by itself. 5x divided by 5 cancels out to 1 and 15 divided by 5 equals 3. This means that you answer will be x<3 and being that you did not multiply or divide by any negatives, the inequality sign stays the same and doesn’t flip... I hope this helps

Number 1 so I can make sure I'm right
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

  228.36 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The total surface area is the area of two trapezoids and 4 rectangles. The rectangles all have the same width, so we can figure their area by finding their total length: the perimeter of the trapezoid.

<u>rectangle area</u>

The perimeter of the isosceles trapezoid is the sum of its edge lengths:

  P = 13 +8.06 +5 +8.06 = 34.12

The rectangles are 3 ft wide, so their total area is ...

  A = LW = (34.12 ft)(3 ft) = 102.36 ft^2

__

<u>trapezoid area</u>

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

  A = (1/2)(13 ft +5 ft)(7 ft) = 63 ft^2

__

<u>total area</u>

As we said, the total area is the sum of the rectangle area and that of two trapezoids:

  total area = rectangle area + 2 × trapezoid area

  A = 102.36 ft^2 + 2 × 63 ft^2

  A = 228.36 ft^2

The area of the trapezoidal prism in figure 1 is 228.36 square feet.

Describe and show two ways in which you can solve 2(5x – 9) = 17
KatRina [158]

Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(5x-9)=17

10x-18=17

+18

10x=35

÷10

x=3.5

or

2(5x-9)=17

÷2

5x-9=8.5

+9

5x=17.5

÷5

x=3.5
