Problem: 4x - (x - 4) = - 20

I desperately need a good grade because this is my first grade.

Correct answer is brainiest!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = - 20

Distribute the minus sign

4x - x +4 = -20

Combine like terms

3x+4 = -20

Subtract 4 from each side

3x+4-4 = -20-4

3x = -24

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -24/3

x = -8

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = -20

~Simplify

4x - x + 4

~Subtract 4 to both sides

3x = -24

~Divide 3 to both sides

x = -8

Best of Luck!

Answers

Answer:

1st sequence is F

2nd sequence is B

3rd sequence is G

4th sequence is A

5th sequence is D

6th sequence is E

7th sequence is C

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 1600*0.25= 400- the first term of the sequence

1600*0.25^2= 100- the second term

so it is 4th sequence

B) y=800* (1/2)^x

The first term is 800*1/2=400

The second term is 800*(1/2)^2= 800*1/4=200

the 2nd sequence

C) y= 2/5*5^x

The first term is y=0.4*5=2

The second term is y= 0.4*5^2=10

7th sequence

D) y=1/5* 5^x

The first term is y=1/5*5=1

The second term is y= 1/5 *5*5=5

The 5th sequence

E) y=2000*(1/2)^x

The first term of 2000*1/2=1000

The only sequence with such the first term is 6th sequence

F) y=1/3*3^x

y= 1/3*3=1 - the first term

y= 1/3*3*3=3

1st sequence

G) y= 2*2^x

y=2*2= 4 - the first term

A. The data set has a mode that is not in the data set

C. The data set has the same median and mode
D. The data set has an interquartile range of 9

Answers

Answer:

A. The data set has a median that is not in the data set

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of the data set is the middle  most number  because there is an even amount of number its 8+10/2 or 9 and that is not in the  data set. There is no mode because no number is repeated. The IQR is 12+14/2-4+6/2  or 8 so that means the correct answer is  a.

[tex]x + 2 \sqrt{x} - 3 = 0[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + 2[tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] - 3 = 0 ( subtract x - 3 from both sides )

2[tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] = 3 - x ( square both sides )

4x = (3 - x)² ← expand using FOIL

4x = 9 - 6x + x² ( subtract 4x from both sides )

0 = x² - 10x + 9 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 1)(x - 9) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are solutions.

x = 1 : 1 + 2[tex]\sqrt{1}[/tex] - 3 = 1 + 2 - 3 = 0 → x = 1 is a solution

x = 9 : 9 + 2[tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] - 3 = 9 + 6 - 3 = 12 ≠ 0

x = 9 is an extraneous solution while x = 1 is a solution

Now that there are no variables this should now be pretty simple to solve.

Two sides of an isosceles triangle have lengths of 4 and 8. What is the length of the third side?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with a simple fact: two sides of an isosceles triangle must be equal. Let's suppose the missing side is 4

That would mean that 4 + 4 equals 8. You must pick a side that exceeds 8, but you loose the property of 2 sides need to be equal.

So the answer has to be 8. The final size of the sides is 4 8 and 8. 4 and 8 exceed the third side (8).

8 and 8 certainly exceed 4.

The sum of two numbers is 50. If the larger number is divided by the
smaller number we get 7/11. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

Set two equations:

Number #1 = xNumber #2 = y

[tex]\left \{ {{x+y=50} \atop {\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{11} }} \right.[/tex]

Rearrange one of the equations to find the value of a variable:

[tex]x+y=50\\x=50-y[/tex]

Substitute in that value into the other equation:

[tex]\frac{50-y}{y}=\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Cross-multiply & solve for y:

[tex]7y=11(50-y) \\7y=550-11y\\7y+11y=550\\18y=550\\y=\frac{550}{18}=\frac{275}{9}[/tex]

Substitute in the value to the original equation to find x:

[tex]\frac{x}{\frac{275}{9}}=\frac{7}{11} \\\frac{9x}{275}=\frac{7}{11} \\9(11)x=275(7)\\99x=1925\\x=\frac{1925}{99} =\frac{175}{9}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer will be:

x = [tex]\frac{175}{9}[/tex]y = [tex]\frac{275}{9}[/tex]

You can check your answers by:

[tex]\frac{175}{9} +\frac{275}{9} =\frac{450}{9} =50[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{175}{9} }{\frac{275}{9} } =\frac{175}{9} *\frac{9}{275} =\frac{175}{275}=\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Answer:

x = 175/9

y = 275/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be 'x' and smaller number be 'y'

sum of two numbers is 50.

x +y = 50 --------(I)

      x = 50 - y   -------------(II)

The larger number is divided by the smaller number we get 7/11.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{11}\\\\[/tex]

Cross multiply,

11x = 7y

11x - 7y = 0 ------------(III)

Substitute x = 50 -y in equation (III)

11*(50-y) - 7y = 0  

11*50 - 11*y - 7y  = 0             {Distributive property}

550 - 11y - 7y = 0  

550 - 18 y = 0        {Combine like terms}

Subtract 550 from both sides

- 18y = -550

Divide both sides by (-18)

y = -550/-18

y = 275/9

substitute y = 275/9 in equation (III)

[tex]11x - 7*(\frac{275}{9})=0\\\\11x-\frac{1925}{9}=0\\\\11x =\frac{1925}{9}\\\\x=\frac{1925}{9*11}\\\\x=\frac{175}{9}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

3840

Step-by-step explanation:

if 120 divided by 750 is 16% then 16% of 24000 is 3840

Number of students out of surveyed students who live within 500 miles

= Total number of students surveyed - Number of students who live 500 miles away or more

= 750 - 120

= 630

Ratio of number of students surveyed to the number of students out of them living within 500 miles

= 750:630

= 25:21

Let the actual number of students living within 500 miles be x.

If the students are surveyed randomly then,

Ratio of number of students surveyed to the number of students out of them living within 500 miles = Ratio of actual number of students to the number of actual students living within 500 miles

=> 25:21 = 24000:x

=> 25/21 = 24000/x

=> x = (24000×21)/25

=> x = 504000/25

=> x = 20160

So, the number of actual students who live within 500 miles is 20160.

Is 2.73234(34 repeating) rational or irrational?

Answers

It's rational because of the repeating digits.

We have

x = 2.732343434…

Then

1,000x = 2,732.343434…

and

100,000x = 273,234.343434…

Subtracting these makes the fractional part go away, leaving you with

100,000x - 1,000x = 273,234.343434… - 2,732.343434…

100,000x - 1,000x = 273,234 - 2,732

99,000x = 270,502

x = 270,502/99,000 = 135,251/49,500

which is clearly a rational number.

A = 1056.25

The sod needed is 1,056.25 square foot .

What is area of a square?

The area of a square is the measure of the space or surface occupied by it. It is equal to the product of the length of its two sides. Since the area of a square is the product of its two sides, the unit of the area is given in square units.

Formula of area of square = [tex]side^{2}[/tex]

According to the question

A square park needs grass .

The park has a side length of 32.5 feet

i.e

Side of square =  32.5 feet

Now,

The sod needed = Area of park

By using formula of area of square

= [tex]side^{2}[/tex]

= [tex]32.5^{2}[/tex]

= 1,056.25 square foot

Hence, The sod needed is 1,056.25 square foot .

2. US, SV and UV are the midsegments of triangle QRT. If the length of US is 22 cm, what is the length of QT?
The last one says 33cm

Answers

Based on the triangle midsegment theorem, the length of QT is calculated as: B. 44 cm.

What is the Triangle Midsegment Theorem?

Using the image above as a reference, the triangle midsegment theorem states the length of the midsegment US, of triangle QRT is parallel to the third side, segment QT, and therefore has a length that is half of the length of segment QT.

Given that US is a midsegment in triangle QRT, and it is equal to 22 cm, therefore, we can find the length of the third side it is parallel to, side QT by  applying the triangle midsegment theorem as explained below:

The length of US = 1/2(the length of QT)

Substitute

22 = 1/2(QT)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(22) = QT

44 = QT

QT = 44 cm

Therefore, the answer is: B. 44 cm.
