4 fiction to 1 nonfiction
(4 x 7 = 28) fiction to (1 x 7 = 7) nonfiction
Therefore, the required ratio is 28 to 7
Try breaking these into sections.
Twice: 2 times
The sum of: add
A number: choose a variable, like x
---Thus "the sum of a number and 4" becomes "add x and 4" which, mathematically, is "x+4"
-----Continuing to put it all together, "Twice the sum of a number and four" becomes "2 times (x+4)" which, mathematically, is "2(x+4)"
Is: equals
-------"Twice the sum of a number and four is" becomes "2(x+4)="
23 less than: subtract 23. This one tends to trick people; "23 less than" will become "__ - 23", NOT "23 - __"
three times the number: 3 times x
---"23 less than three times the number" becomes "subtract 23 from 3 times x" which, mathematically, is "3x-23"
-------So the final phrase: 2(x+4)=3x-23"

Volume of a Cylinder Formula: 
- V is volume
- r is radius
- h is height
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
Radius <em>r</em> = 2 ft
Height <em>h</em> = 7 ft
<u>Step 2: Solve for V</u>
- Substitute in variables [Volume of a Cylinder Formula]:
- [Volume] Evaluate exponents:
- [Volume] Multiply:
Hey!
So you have a net of the figure. It's broken into several 2D shapes. What you an do it find the area of each shape and add it together.
Triangles:
A = (b*h)/2
A= (5 * 3) / 2
A = 15/2
same thing for the second one
15/2 * 2 = 15
Don't forget, there are 2 triangles so it's really 15 for both
Rectangles:
A=b*h
A= 7*5
A=35
A=7*5
A=35
A=3*7
A=21
35+35+21=91
Now add the sum of the area of the triangles and the sum of the area of the rectangles
91+15 = 106
106 is the surface area
Hope this helps!
