Mathematics

First distribute 3 to (x-4). that gives you 3x-12. Now your equation is x-2=3x-12. Now you subtract x from 3x. now you're equation is -2=2x-12. then add 12 to the left. You're final answer is 10.

X-2=3x-4. Solve for x by first subtracting x from the left side (you want to keep x positive if you can). You then have -2=2x-4. Subtract four to help get x by itself and you have -6=2x. Divide by 2 and your answer is -3=x.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

B, Work with the math instructors to create a list of students currently taking a math class. Randomly select

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's think of each scenario at a time.

(A) We select 100 students enrolled in college randomly that should be fine because we are taking only students that can take classes. this rules out faculty members and any other persons but also there may be students that will never take any math course as part of their study plan, this is ruled out on that basis.

(B)if we take 100 students from the list of math instructor, that will ensure that we have taken students that are taking math class now, and math is part of their study plan, seems fine.

(C) visiting cafeteria randomly on multiple days will give us random persons that may not even be enrolled in university. this can be ruled out on that basis.

(D)Ten class at random and surveying each student in every class will make sampling size large or small depending on students enrolled in each of the class this will not give us reliable results.

We can conclude that (B) is the beast method for obtaining reliable results.

What is the value of (3/10)3
Elenna [48]

Answer:

\frac{9}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, one is asked to multiply a fraction by a whole number, first model the question.

\frac{3}{10}(3)

In a situation like this, one multiplies the whole number by the numerator (number) over the fraction.

\frac{3*3}{10}

Simplify,

\frac{9}{10}

A common error that people make is that they will multiply both the numerator and denominator by the whole number, this is the same as multiplying the answer by (1), thus it is incorrect.

Graph quadrilateral ABCD and find the most precise name (square, rectangle,
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Kite

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph quadrilateral with points:

A(-1,-2)

B(5,1)

C(-3,1)

D(-1,4)

Thus, we graph the the given points and join the corners. The quadrilateral formed has the following features:

Measure of segment AB= Measure of segment BD = 6.708 units

Measure of segment AC= Measure of segment CD = 3.605 units

Thus, adjacent pair of sides of the quadrilateral are congruent.

Major diagonal BC cuts the minor diagonal AD at point E such that:

Measure of segment AE= Measure of segment ED = 3 units

m∠AEB = m∠DEB = 90°

Thus, major diagonal is a perpendicular bisector of the minor diagonal.

The above stated features fulfills the criterion of a kite.

Hence, the given quadrilateral ABCD is a kite.
