If you would like to know how many gallons of paint will Henry need to paint his living room, you can calculate this using the following steps:
the ceiling: 24 ft * 18 ft = 432 ft squared
walls: 2 * 24 ft * 9 ft + 2 * 18 ft * 9 ft = 2 * 24 * 9 + 2 * 18 * 9 = 432 + 324 = 756 ft squared
432 ft squared + 756 ft squared = 1188 ft squared
1 gallon of paint ... 450 ft squared
x gallons of paint = ? ... 1188 ft squared
1 * 1188 = 450 * x
1188 = 450 * x /450
x = 1188 / 450
x = 2.64 gallons of paint
The correct result would be 2.64 gallons of paint.
Binomial
A monomial is just one term. A binomial is two monomials added or subtracted together. A trinomial is three monomials added or subtracted together.
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We will represent the unknown number as x
10 - x = 8 + x
Add x to both sides
10 - x + x = 8 + x + x
10 = 8 + 2x
Subtract 8 from both sides
10 - 8 = 2x
2 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
1 = x
x = 1
