1/5(x-4)=-2 how do you solve this equation

Multiple both sides by 5/1 and get

-1/1 • (x-4) = -10/1

divide the numbers and get

-1 • (x-4) = -10

remove the parentheses

- x-4 = 10

move the constant to the right

-x = -10-4

calculate

-x = -14

change the signs

x= 14

Hello!

the answer is:

the lateral area is equal to

why?

to find the lateral area of the square pyramid, first we need to find the perimeter of the base, and then, find the lateral area using the following formulas:

where,

s, is the base length

slant height, is the height of a the side of the pyramid

we are given:

now, calculating the perimeter of the base, we have:

then, calculating the lateral area:

hence, we have that the lateral area is equal to

have a nice day!
