Answer:

umm... This how I learned from the chapter simple equation. Hopefully helps

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 3) = 25  we have to find the value of 'x'

so transpose 5 x to the other side = (x - 3) = 25 divided by 5 becuz it was multiplication on the other side so it is equal to = (x - 3) = 5

Now we transpose -3 which is equal to = x = 5 + 3 = 8

so, <u>x = 8</u>

<u />

<u>hopefully it helps!!!!!!!</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

first use distributive property

like this 5(x-3)=25

5x-15=25

then 5x=25+15

5x=40

5x/5=40/5

x=8

A private shipping company will accept a box for domestic shipment only if the sum of its length and girth (distance around) doe
Gnesinka [82]
Let 4x = the girth (each side = x) Let y = the length 
4x + y = 114 maximum y = 114 - 4x 
volume = x^2 * y v = x^2 * (114 - 4x) v = 114x^2 - 4x^3 . . . . . . v is maximum (or minimum) when it's derivative = 0 v ' = 228x - 12x^2 
228x - 12x^2 = 0 12x * (19 - x) = 0 
x = 0 <=== this is obviously a minimum volume or x = 19 inches <=== for maximum volume 
4x + y = 1144*19 + y = 114y = 38 <=== 
The largest volume is 19 x 19 x 38

The total surface area of this cuboid is 112cm squared find the value of x
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The height of cuboid is 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area of cuboid  = 2lb+2bh+2hl

Length of cuboid = 10 cm

Width of cuboid = 2 cm

Let the height be x

Total surface area of cuboid  = 2(10)(2)+2(2)(x)+2(x)(10)

Total surface area of this cuboid is 112 cm squared

 2(10)(2)+2(2)(x)+2(x)(10)=112

40+4x+20x=112

40+24x=112

24x=112-40

24x=72

x=\frac{72}{24}

x=3

Hence the height of cuboid is 3 cm

Claire built two similar wooden chests in the shape of rectangular prisms. She needed 6 pints of paint to cover the outside of t
Evgesh-ka [11]
The scale factor would be used in solving for the volume inside the larger chest. By definition, a scale factor is considered to be the ratio of similar sides of similar figures. By using this method:

Scale factor^² = 6/4 = 3/2 
Scale factor = √3 / √2 

The solution would yield to a final answer of 83.7 percent larger volume compared to the smaller chest.
