Answer:

-5 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

x = amount of money with Jim at the start of the week ($)

After eating out:

Spends 45 dollars, or 45 dollars is removed
x - 45

After mowing lawns:

Gains 55 dollars, or 55 dollars is added
x - 45 + 55 = x + 10

After buying gas:

x + 10 - 15 = x - 5

At the end of the week, he ended up with 5 dollars less than he started, so the change is -5 dollars

Cam's tent (shown below) is a triangular prism. Find the surface area, including the floor, of his tent.

SVEN [57.7K]

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a prism you must calculate:

1. The perimeter of the base

2. The area of the base

3. The height of the prism

We have a triangular prism:

Its base is an equilateral triangle of side length 2 m and height 1.7 m

The height of the prism is 3 m

∵ The surface are of the prism is:

S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3 × length of a side

∵ The length of the side = 2 m

∴ The perimeter of the base = 3 × 2 = 6 m

∵ The area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ × base × height

∵ The length of the base of the triangle = 2 m

∵ The height of the triangle = 1.7 m

∴ The area of the base = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 2 × 1.7 = 1.7 m²

∵ S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the base = 6 m

∵ The area of the base = 1.7 m²

∵ The height of the prism = 3 m

∴ S.A = 6 × 3 + 2 × 1.7

∴ S.A = 18 + 3.4

∴ S.A = 21.4 m²

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Write Algebraically: Thirty less than negative fifteen times a number is greater than 54 more than negative three times a number

Yuri [45]

Answer

-15x - 30 > -3x + 54

Explanation

Let's break this sentence down.

Thirty less than means [whatever goes before] minus 30.

Negative fifteen is -15.

Times a number means multiplying by a number. The number will be a variable. And in this case, the variable will be x.

Is greater than means more than.

Negative three is -3.

Times a number means multiplying by a number (in case you forgot or get confused, I wrote it again). That number will be a variable; x. This is the same number.

Now let's write down the equation.

Let's break both sides of the inequality, meaning the left side of 'greater than' and the right side.

The left side says this; "thirty less than negative fifteen times a number."

So let's write this.

So thirty less is minus 30. You are subtracting from "negative fifteen times a number."

Negative fifteen is -15... times a number is -15x.

So the left side of the inequality is -15x - 30.

The right side says this; "54 more than negative three times a number."

54 more than means adding 54 meaning + 54.

And you are adding 54 to "negative three times a number."

Negative three is -3, times a number is -3x.

So the right side of the inequality is -3x + 54.

So the full inequality is -15x - 30 > -3x + 54.
