Four times the greater of two consecutive integers is 18 more than three times the lesser integer. What are the integers?

1 answer:

5 0

This is how I would solve it:

1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14

To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>

Solve:<br> -8(x - 3) + 5x < 9(x + 12)<br> This is Algebra 1

Flauer [41]

Answer:

x>−7

Step-by-step explanation:

left side:

-8(x-3)+5x

distribute -8 into (x-3)

-8x+24+5x

combine like terms

-3x+24

right side:

9(x+12)

distribute 9 into (x+12)

9x+108

-3x+24<9x+108

Subtract 24 on both sides

-3x< 9x+108-24

combine like terms

-3x<9x+84

Subtract 9x on both sides

-3x-9x<+84

combine like terms again

-12x<84

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)

(-12x)(-1)>84(-1)

12x>-84

divide both sides with 12

$\frac{12x}{12}>\frac{-84}{12}$

x>−7

hope this helps

Find the area and the circumference of a circle with a diameter 8yrd.

nalin [4]

Answer:

Part 1) The area of the circle is $A=50.24\ yd^2$

Part 2) The circumference of the circle is $C=25.12\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

The area of a circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=8/2=4\ yd$ ---> the radius is half the diameter

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(4)^{2}$

$A=50.24\ yd^2$

step 2

The circumference of a circle is equal to

$C=\pi D$

we have

$D=8\ yd$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=(3.14)8$

$C=25.12\ yd$

What is the measure of ∠R ?

GarryVolchara [31]

You want to find R. From angle R, you know the side lengths for opposite and hypotenuse. According to SohCahToa, that is sine. Sin (x) = Opposite / Hypotenuse = 2.5 / 5 = 0.5
Sine(x)=.5. To get x by itself divide both by the inverse of sine.
