Which value for x makes the following equation true?

−2x−4=−6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

−2x − 4 = −6

−2x − 4 + 4 = −6 + 4

−2x = −2

−2x/-2 = −2/-2

x = 1

Answer 2

The equation is,

→ -2x - 4 = -6

Let's solve for the value of x,

→ -2x - 4 = -6

→ -2x = -6 + 4

→ x = (-2)/(-2)

→ x = 2/2

→ [ x = 1 ]

Thus, the value of x is 1.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2(x+6)-4-2x.

First, we do the parenthesis.

This gives us: 3x+2x+12-4-2x.

Then, we reorder so like terms are together.

This gives us: 3x+2x-2x+12-4.

Then, we combine like terms.

This gives us: 3x+8, which is C.

Answers

Answer:

A Supplementery

Step-by-step explanation:

they show on usa test prep

The best description for the given pair of angles is supplementary as shown in the figure. which is the correct answer would be an option (A).

What are supplementary angles?

Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180 degrees. In other words, if you have two angles and you add their measures together, the sum will be 180 degrees if the angles are supplementary.

For example, consider the following pair of angles:

Angle A measures 80 degrees.

Angle B measures 100 degrees.

The sum of the measures of these two angles is 80 + 100 = 180 degrees, so angle A and angle B are supplementary angles.

As per the given figure, we have two angles UVZ and WVZ

As indicated in the image, the best description for the given pair of angles is supplementary.

a rectangle is made by joining two squares adjacent to each other as shown below. if one squared has an area of 144 squared centimeters what is the area of the rectangle?​

Answers

Answer:

Hello! After reading your question I have deduced that the correct answer is 288² cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I came to this conclusion was as follows:

Firstly:

If said rectangle is two squares put side by side (adjacent), then a valid assumption is that both squares are the same size.

This is because all four sides of a square have to be equal.

Thus if the two squares are joined together on one side, then all the other sides of both the squares will be the same length.

Thus both of the squares are going to be the same size, so they will have the same area.

Secondly:

If the area of one square is 144² cm then the area of the other square should also be 144² cm.

Thus if you combine the areas of both the squares, that make up the rectangle, you are left with the area of the rectangle being 288² cm.

Answers

It would be 2:8- 1:4

Answer:3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 sports cars out of a total of 8 total cars, so there are 2 favorable outcomes, and 8−2=6 unfavorable outcomes.

The odds against choosing a sports car are 6:2.

Answers

14 brownies would have about 233.0 calories

The number of calories in 14 brownies is 233 calories.

The first step is to determine the average calorie in 1 brownie.

Average calorie = 50 calories / 3 = 16.667 calories

In order to determine the number of calories in 14 brownies, multiply the average calorie by 14 brownies.

Answer:

x = 8, x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt{4x - 31}[/tex] = x - 7 ( square both sides )

4x - 31 = (x - 7)² ← expand using FOIL

4x - 31 = x² - 14x + 49 ( sub 4x - 31 from both sides )

0 = x² - 18x + 80 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 8)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.

x = 8

left side = [tex]\sqrt{4(8)-31 }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{32-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{1}[/tex] = 1

right side = 8 - 7 = 1

Then x = 8 is a solution

x = 10

left side = [tex]\sqrt{4(10)-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{40-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] = 3

right side = 10 - 7 = 3

Then x = 10 is a solution

only figure 1 and figure 3 are similar.

What is similarity?

Two objects are similar if they have the same shape, or one has the same shape as the mirror image of the other.

In figure 1, two of the sides (16 and 9 ) are perfect square and third is not.

If we take the ratio of three side as

16:9:12

(4)²:(3)²:(2√3)²

Similarly, In figure 3 two of the sides (64 and 36 ) are perfect square and third is not.

If we take the ratio of three side as

64:36:48

(8)²:(6)²:(4√3)²

Comparing the ratios of both figure, the figure 3  has twice the measurement of figure 1 sides.

Hence, only figure 1 and 3 are similar.

Answers

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that a sample size of 13 is needed.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X. By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For this problem, using a calculator:

The mean is [tex]\mu = 37.9[/tex]The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 14.07[/tex]

The sample size needed is n when [tex]s = 4[/tex], as by the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard errors of the mean, hence [tex]2s = 8 \rightarrow s = 4[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

[tex]4 = \frac{14.07}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4\sqrt{n} = 14.07[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{14.07}{4}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{14.07}{4}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 12.37[/tex]

Rounding up, a sample size of 13 is needed.
