Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-15x - 40 = 23 - 8x  

Add 8x to both sides

-15x + 8x - 40 = 23

          -7x - 40 = 23

Add 40 to both sides

                - 7x = 23 + 40

                  -7x = 63

 Divide both sides by (-7)

            x = 63/-7

x = -9

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-15x - 40 = 23 - 8x

<em>add 8x to both sides to bring -8x to the left side</em>

-15x + 8x - 40 = 23

<em>add 40 to both sides to bring -40 to the right side</em>

-15x + 8x = 23 + 40

<em>add the common terms</em>

-7x = 63

<em>for x to be alone divide -7 to both sides</em>

x = -9

<em>I hope this helped!</em>

Find the volume of the square pyramid, given its slant height​
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

base length b = 32 cm

slant height L = 30 cm

 

height h = √(L²-(½b)²)

= √(30²-0.25·32²)

≅ 25.3771550809 cm

 

volume V = (⅓)b²h

= (⅓)32²·25.38

≅ 8662.07 cm³
