Equation: SOLVE


Solution for 10=4(x-1)-(x-8) equation:

Simplifying
10 = 4(x + -1) + -1(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
10 = 4(-1 + x) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-1 * 4 + x * 4) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-4 + 4x) + -1(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 4x + -1(-8 + x)
10 = -4 + 4x + (-8 * -1 + x * -1)
10 = -4 + 4x + (8 + -1x)

Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 8 + 4x + -1x

Combine like terms: -4 + 8 = 4
10 = 4 + 4x + -1x

Combine like terms: 4x + -1x = 3x
10 = 4 + 3x

Solving
10 = 4 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
10 + -3x = 4 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
10 + -3x = 4 + 0
10 + -3x = 4

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + -3x = 4 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + -3x = 4 + -10
-3x = 4 + -10

Combine like terms: 4 + -10 = -6
-3x = -6

Divide each side by '-3'.
x = 2

Simplifying
x = 2

13. Jessica has taken 8 quizzes. The mean of her scores is 92. Her first 6 scores are shown.
Dovator [93]

Answer: Median= 91; 8th quiz score=86

Step-by-step explanation: The sum of the scores is 8×92=736. Subtract the 6 given scores and then a 100 for the seventh quiz to find the score she got on the 8th quiz, this is an 86. Now that you have all the scores, arrange them all in the least to greatest order and find the average of the middle two numbers (median), which is 91!

if the diameter of the concentric circles as shown in the given figure are in the ratio 1:2:3 then find the ratio of the areas o
Monica [59]

Answer:

1 : 4 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of diameters = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of diameters = 1 : 2 : 3 , so

ratio of areas = 1² : 2² : 3² = 1 : 4 : 9
