I)
Every 8.th voter gets a button:

so a sequence of the voters who receive a button is:

8, 16, 24, 32, ....   that is  8*1, 8*2, 8*3, 8*4, .... in general: 8k for some integer k  

ii)

Every 10.th voter gets a sticker, so the voters who receive stickers are the :

10, 20, 30, 40, .... voters    that is 10*1, 10*2, 10*3, 10*4... in general 10t

for some integer t


iii) what we are looking for is the first number which is 8k and 10t at the same time.

8k=2*2*2k, 
10t=2*5t

Thus this number must be divisible by 2*2*2*5*{some positive integer}

the smallest number is when the positive integer is 1, thus the number is 

2*2*2*5=8*5=40


Answer: g. the 40th

(4x-4)+(3x-2)+(2x+6)=180
Ahat [919]

Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x−4+3x−2+2x+6=180

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x−4+3x−2+2x+6=180

4x+−4+3x+−2+2x+6=180

(4x+3x+2x)+(−4+−2+6)=180(Combine Like Terms)

9x=180

9x=180

Step 2: Divide both sides by 9.

9x

9

=

180

9

x=20

Answer:

x=20
