Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8

Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label 
so that we can work with it.  We can call it anything.  I'd like to call it ' G '.

The number we're looking for is ' G '.

Half of it is  1/2 G

The sum of that and 6 is          1/2 G + 6

Ten times that is              10 (1/2 G + 6)

The question says that's 8.
                                        So       10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8

Divide each side by  10 :                1/2 G + 6  =  0.8

Subtract  6  from each side:            1/2 G  =  - 5.2

Multiply each side by  2 :                        G  =  - 10.4

That seems like a weird answer.  We should check it.

The number:                                         -10.4
Half the number:                                   - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6:      -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum:                                                  8

10(0.5x + 6) = 8
5x + 60 = 8
5x = 8 - 60
5x = -52
x = -52/5
x = -10.4

Exterior angle equation is 3p-15 interior angles are p and p+15
zmey [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  p = 30

  angles 30°, 45°; exterior: 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the remote interior angle:

  3p -15 = p + (p +15)

  p = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 15-2p

The interior angles are 30°, 45°; the exterior angle is 75°.

I need step by step explanation for this!!
Naily [24]

Hello! :)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{751}

Let the smallest digit, or the units' digit, be equal to x:

Tens' digit is four more, therefore:

x + 4 represents the tens' digit.

Hundreds' digit is 2 more than the tens' digit, so:

2 + (x + 4), or x + 6 represents the hundred's digit.

These all sum up to 13, so write an expression to represent this:

x + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 13

Combine like terms:

3x + 10 = 13

Subtract 10 from both sides:

3x = 3

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 1

Find the digits using the rules listed above:

Hundreds' digit: (1) + 6 = 7

Tenths' digit:  (1) + 4 = 5

Units' digit: 1 = 1

Therefore, the number is:

751.

The ratio of the change in dimension at right angles to the applied force to the initial dimension is known as.
Elan Coil [88]

The ratio of the change in dimension at right angles to the applied force to the initial dimension is known as Lateral strain.

Here,

We have to find, The ratio of the change in dimension at right angles to the applied force to the initial dimension .

What is Lateral strain?

Whenever the bar is subjected to the axial load ,there will be decrease in the dimensions of the bar in the perpendicular direction of loading. Therefore lateral strain is defined as ratio of decrease in the length of the bar in the perpendicular direction of applied load to that of the original length (gauge length).

⇒ e = dB/B or dD/D

where, e= lateral strain

Now,

The ratio of the change in dimension at right angles to the applied force to the initial dimension is known as Lateral strain.
