Answer:

x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

16x + 8 > 12x + 20 <== subtract 12x from both sides

- 12x - 12x

4x + 8 > 20 <== subtract 8 from both sides

- 8 - 8

4x > 12 <== divide both sides by 4

/4 /4

x > 3

This means that x is any value that is greater (bigger) than 3.

Hope this helps!

A single die is rolled twice. Find the probability of rolling an

Nady [450]

Answer: 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

A die has 6 numbers which are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Odd numbers in a die = 1, 3 and 6

Numbers greater than 4 = 5 and 6

Probability of rolling an odd number = 3/6 = 1/2

Probability of rolling a number greater than 4 = 2/6 = 1/3

We then multiply both values gotten. This will be:

= 1/2 × 1/3

= 1/6

Therefore, the probability of rolling an odd number the first time and a number greater than 4 the second time is 1/6.

Yes, EF is parallel to CD. Translation is the simple slide of a shape, therefore it doesn't have an effect on parallel lines.

I need to find the area of the shaded region, but I need detailed steps

olasank [31]

The shaded region is a parallelogram.

The formula for the area of any parallelogram is $A=bh$ .

The base of the parallelogram is 2 meters long (given).

The height of the parallelogram is 9 meters (do not be fooled by the unnecessary information of 14 meters)
The height is 9 meters because the height has to be perpendicular to the base. Thus, the side length must be 9 meters.

Multiply them together.

$2 \times 9 = 18$

The area of the parallelogram is 18 square meters.
