If 1 dish of craft paint covers an area of 720 square centimeters, how many dishes of paint are required to paint the top surface and the lateral faces of the table shown in the diagram? ignore the bottom of the tabletop and the legs.

(540 + 540 + 900 + 900) + (2160) = (Surface area of Lateral faces) + (Top) = 5040 sq cm.

5040 / 720 = dishes of craft paint = 7 dishes

i think 1: 2

step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
