The answer is -3.

Explation:

12-6r=2r+36
+6r +6r
———————
12=8r+36
-36 -36

-24=8r
then divide each side by 8 so you then get r= -3 as you’re answer.

If f(x) = 8 – 10x and g(x) = 5x + 4, what is the value of (fg)(-2)?

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume you meant "what is the value of f(g(-2))?"

g(-2) = 5(-2) + 4 = -6

f(-6) = 8 - 10(-6) = 68

Kyra has a rock collection. When she puts her rocks into 2 equal plies, there are no rocks left over. When she puts her rocks in

Nat2105 [25]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to this description we need a number that can be divided by 2,3 and 4 since the amount of rocks can be described by a natural number. However if a number is divided by 4 it is divided by 2 as well since 2*2=4.

$\frac{x}{4} = \alpha \\ \frac{x}{2} = 2 \alpha$

If α is a natural number then 2*α is a natural number as well as the product of two natural numbers.

Which means that we need a number devided by 3 and 4.

The smallest number that fulfills this demand is 3*4=12.

Also any product of 12 with any natural number can be devided by 3, 4 and 2.

If the exercise asks for the numbers that are divided only by 2,3 and 4 these are:

${3}^{ \alpha } \times 12 \: and \: {4}^{ \alpha } \times 12 \: \\ where \: \alpha \: belongs \: to \: the \: set \: of \: all \: \\ natural \: numbers$
