Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal the mystery number

Our equation will be:

x - 5 = 1 + 3x

Subtract x from both sides

-5 = 1 + 2x

Subtract 1 from both sides

-6  = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

-3 = x

What is the surface area of the prism in square inches?
Kay [80]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the triangular prism with height 10 inches.

The side lengths of the base of the triangle are 12 inches, 13 inches and 5 inches.

We need to determine the surface area of the prism.

<u>Surface area of the prism:</u>

The surface area of the prism can be determined using the formula,

SA=bh+(s_1+s_2+s_3)H

where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.

s₁, s₂, s₃ are the side lengths of the triangle and

H is the height of the prism.

Substituting b = 12, h = 5, s₁ = 12, s₂ = 5, s₃ = 13 and H = 10 in the above formula, we get;

SA=(12)(5)+(12+5+13)(10)

SA=60+(30)(10)

SA=60+300

SA=360 \ in^2

Thus, the surface area of the triangular prism is 360 square inches.

Hence, Option b is the correct answer.

The Yu family and the Sainz family went on vacation together and each family leased a car. The leasing company charged a flat re
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the leasing company charged a flat rental fee for the week, plus a charge for each mile driven.

Let flat rental fee be c and cost per mile driven = m and miles driven = x

Total cost =y

Then y = mx+C is the linear equation.

to find m and c, we use the fact that y =110.30 when x = 222

i.e. 110.30 = c+222x

and similarly 99.05 = c+147x

Subtract to eliminate c

11.25 = 75 x

0.15 =x

Substitute in I equation

110.30 = c+222(0.15)

c = 77

Hence y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x

ammar hikes 23/4 miles of nature trail in 1 hour and 15 min .How many miles of trail does ammar hike per hour? pleas help me to
telo118 [61]
23/4 miles is as much as 5 3/4 miles. We can also write it as a decimal, because 5 3/4 = 5,75 miles.

If Ammar hikes 5,75 miles in 1 1/4 hour, then we need to find out what distance does he hike in 1/4 hour (15 minutes). To do that we can just divide 5,75 by 5 (because dividing 1 1/4 by 5 will give us 1/4 we're looking for).

5,75 / 5 = 1,15

It means that in one hour Ammar hikes 5,75 - 1,15 = 4,6 miles.

We can also write it as a fraction:

4,6 = 4 6/10 = 4 3/5 = 23/5 miles

Just pick whichever form you like :)
