Answer:

$x=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$6(x+1)-5x=8+2(x-1)$

solve for x

$6x+6-5x=8+2x-2$

Group terms that contain the same variable and move the constants to the other side

$6x-5x-2x=8-2-6$

$-x=8-8$

$x=0$

6(x + 1) - 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)
6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2
x + 6 = 6 + 2x
0 = x
So, x = 0

Please help me solve this question

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagoreom theorem to determine the length of the hypotenuse:

a² + b² = c²

- assign side a to 30 and side b to 40

30² + 40² = c²

90 + 160 = c²

250 = c²

Now square root both sides to isolate side c:

√250 = √c²

50 = c

side c = 50

. The Empire State Building is a 102-story skyscraper. Its height is 1,250 ft. from the ground to the roof. The length and width

Aleks [24]

Answer: a) Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5, b) 0.006 ft³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Height of building = 1250 feet

Length of building = 424 ft

Width of building = 187 ft

Now, we know that The miniature version is just 1/ 2500 of the size of the original.

So, Height of miniature would be

$\dfrac{1250}{2500}=0.5\ ft$

Length of miniature would be

$\dfrac{424}{2500}=0.17\ ft$

Width of miniature would be

$\dfrac{187}{2500}=0.08\ ft$

a) What are the dimensions of the miniature Empire State Building?

Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5

b. Determine the volume of the miniature building. Explain how you determined the volume.

$Volume=0.5\times 0.08\times 0.17=0.006\ ft^3$

Hence, a) Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5, b) 0.006 ft³.

Which of the following demonstrates how the 20 is calculated using the combination pattern

UNO [17]

The combination expression that demonstrates how the 20 is calculated using the combination pattern is 6C3

<h3>Permutation and Combination</h3>

While combination has to do with selection, permutation has to do with arrangement.

According to the combination rule

nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!

The expression that gives the result of 20 is expressed below;

6C3 = 6!/(6-3)!3!

6C3 = 6!/3!3!

6C3 = 6!/6*6
6C3 = 720/36
6C3 =20

Hence the combination expression that demonstrates how the 20 is calculated using the combination pattern is 6C3
