Answer:

6x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\displaystyle \large{6:2 = 8:x}

The equation can be rewritten as:

\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{6}{2}=\dfrac{8}{x}}

Multiply both sides by 2x.

\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{6}{2}\cdot 2x=\dfrac{8}{x}\cdot 2x}

Simplify the equation in simplest form.

\displaystyle \large{6x=8\cdot 2}\\\\\displaystyle \large{6x=16}

Therefore, the answer to this question is 6x = 16.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding my answer or explanation!

Billy plans to paint baskets. The paint costs $14.50. The baskets cost $7.25. Write an equation that gives the total cost as a f
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Let 'x' represent the number of baskets and let 'y' be the total cost.

Since the paint costs 14.50 and each basket cost 7.25, then we have the following function:

y=7.25x+14.50

To find the cost of 4 baskets, we can make x = 4 and solve for y:

\begin{gathered} x=4 \\ \Rightarrow y=7.25(4)+14.50=29+14.50=43.50 \\ y=43.50 \end{gathered}

therefore, the cost of painting 4 baskets is $43.50

The product of two consecutive even integers is 224. what are the integers?
algol [13]

Answer:

16, -16, 14, and -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way of solving this question is by setting up an equation. Let's use "n" to represent any random possible integer.

n (n + 2)  = 224

Simplifying:

x^2 + 2n - 224 = 0

(n + 16)(n - 14) = 0

n = -16, 16 or n = -14, 14

<u>Check:</u>

16 * 14 = 224

-16 * -14 = 224

Thus, answers of 16, -16, 14, and -14 all work correctly.
