Twice the sum of a number and 4 is less than 12

To find the number you can set up a small equation (x being the number) and solve for x.
It can be written as 2 ( x + 4) < 12
Solve for x to find the number.
2 ( x + 4) < 12
Distribute the 2
2x+8<12
Subtract 8 on both sides
2x<4
Divide by 2 on both sides
x<2

Therefore the number is any number less than 2

~I hope this helps!~

A linear function models the height of a burning candle. Candle A comes out of the mold at 211 mm and is expected to be at 187

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

(11.4 - 22.8) / (26 - 7)

-11.4 / 19 this is the rate at which it burns - the slope

h = (-11.4/19)t + b

22.8 = (-11.4/19)7 + b

22.8 = (-79.8/19) + b

22.8 = -4.2 + b

27 = b

h = (-11.4/19)t + 27

Substitute 15 for t to determine the height of the candle.

What is the equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3

andreyandreev [35.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3 is $y+6=\frac{1}{3}(x+2)$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that line passes through (-2, -6) and has slope of 1/3

We have to find the equation of the line

The point slope form is given as

$y-b=m(x-a)$

where m is the slope of the line and a, b are the x, y coordinates of the given point through which the line passes.

Here in this question, m = 1/3 and a = -2 and b = -6

By substituting in point slope form we get,

$y - (-6) = \frac{1}{3}(x - (-2))\\\\y + 6 = \frac{1}{3}(x + 2)$

Hence the equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3 is $y+6=\frac{1}{3}(x+2)$

Find the quotient. 12a^3p^4 ÷ -2a^2p

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

-(6ap³)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the quotients of

$\frac{12a^{3}p^{4}}{-2a^{2}p}$

We take the common 2a² p from the numerator

= $\frac{(6ap^{3}(2a^{2}p))}{(-2a^{2}p)}$

= -(6ap³)

Therefore, the quotient after division will be -(6ap³)

If you separate the triangles, you'll notice that both are literally the same triangle because all angles are the same.
