The required solution of the inequality is x < - 6.

Given that,
To solve the equation −2x − 4 > 8.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality can be described as the consideration of the equation including the symbol of ( ≤, ≥, <, >) instead of the equal sign in an equation.

Here,
The given equation
−2x − 4 > 8
adding 4 on both sides
-2x > 12
multiply by -1
when multiplying the negative -1 it will change the behavior of the inequality, so.
2x < - 12
Divide by 2 into both sides
x < - 6

Thus, the required solution of the inequality is x < - 6.

Answer:

$x=\frac{2}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{4}-x=\frac{x}{8}$

With the equation's current format, we will have trouble solving with all these fractions. Especially the fraction $\frac{x}{8}$ is very difficult to deal with, so my first step would be:

$(\frac{8}{1})(\frac{1}{4}-x)=\frac{x}{8}(\frac{8}{1})$

If we multiply both sides by this number, we will be able to get rid of the messy fraction on the right side as well as remove the fraction on the left side. Like so:
<em>I put the $8$ I multiplied onto each side in fraction form simply for clarity. You do not need to do this.</em>

$(\frac{8}{1})(\frac{1}{4}-x)=\frac{x}{8}(\frac{8}{1})\\\frac{8}{4}-8x=\frac{8x}{8}\\2-8x=x$

After this point, let's put our variable, $x$ , onto one side of this equation and any other integers on the other by adding and subtracting them from both sides.

$2-8x=x\\-9x=-2$

Now we divide so that $x$ is isolated, and we are done.

$x=\frac{-2}{-9}=\frac{2}{9}$

Find the area of a circle using 3.14 as pie <br> d=8cm

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A = 50.24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area formula of a circle:

A = π r²

diameter- r+r

which means that your diameter(8) divided by 2 = 4

r of circle= 4

A= 3.14(4²)

A = 3.14(16)

A = 50.24 cm
