Answer:  -4.5, but only if the phrase "five twice the sum . . ." means 5*2*(the sum of . . .).  "five twice" is confusing, so please check the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

5*2*(X + 3) = 3*(2X - 1)

10X + 15 = 6X -3

4X = -18

X  = -18/4

X = - 4.5

Help!!!! I really need help with this I don’t understand it!!!

Answer:

  y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways to get there, but the short of it is that a horizontal line has the equation ...

  y = constant

The constant value must be chosen to match the y-value of points on the line. Here, that is 5. The equation of the line is ...

  y = 5

_____

<em>Another way</em>

You can write the equation in slope-intercept form if you know the slope and the y-intercept. The line crosses the y-axis at y = 5, so that is the value of the y-intercept.

The "rise" between the two points is 5 -5 = 0. The "run" between the two points is 5-0 = 5, so the slope is ...

  m = rise/run = 0/5 = 0

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

  y = 0x +5

Simplifying, we get ...

  y = 5

7. What is the volume of the prism? 8 cm 5.8 cm A. 29 cm B. 87 cm3 15.2 cm C. 512.3 cm3 D. 705.3 cm
bija089 [108]

The volume of the rectangular prism is

V=L\times W\times H

Where:

L is its length

W is its width

H is its height

From the given figure

L = 15.2 cm

W = 8 cm

H = 5.8 cm

Substitute them in the rule above

\begin{gathered} V=15.2\times8\times5.8 \\ V=705.28\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}

Round it to the nearest tenth

V=705.3\operatorname{cm}^3
