5(s + 6)= 3(s - 2)
multiply 5 and 3 by their parentheses

5s + 30= 3s - 6
subtract 3s from both sides

2s + 30= -6
subtract 30 from both sides

2s= -36
divide both sides by 2

s= -18


CHECK:
5(s + 6)= 3(s - 2)
5(-18 + 6)= 3(-18 - 2)
5(-12)= 3(-20)
-60= -60


ANSWER: The value of s that makes the statement true is -18.

Hope this helps! :)

Isabella drove 600 m and Mia drove 300 more meters than Isabella. If David drove 8.5 km, how much further did David drive in met
Y_Kistochka [10]
Isabella drove 600m.
Mia drove 300 more than Isabella=(600+300)m
=900m.
David drove=8.5km=8500m
Therefore, Distance David drove in meters combined of both distances of Mia and Isabella =[8500-(600+900)]m
=(8500-1500)
=7000 meters or 7 km.

The lateral surface area of cone A is equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B.
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

Lateral area of cone is given by: πrl

where r is the radius and l is the slant height

Here r=r and l=2h

Hence, lateral area of cone A= π×r×2h

                                            =  2πrh

Lateral area of cylinder is given by: 2πrh

where r is the radius and h is the height

Lateral area of cylinder B=2πrh

Clearly, both the lateral areas are equal

Hence, the statement that:The lateral surface area of cone A is equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B. is:

True
