Match the reasons with the statements.

To Prove: x = 1

Given: 2 (x + 3) = 8

Step 1: 2(x + 3) = 8

Distributive postulate ( distribute 2 over x+3)

Step 2: 2x+6=8

Subtraction property of equality ( subtract 6 both sides )

Step 3: 2x = 8-6 = 2

Division property of equality ( divide both sides by 2)

Step 4: x=1

Now we make table which shows matching of two column

2(x + 3) = 8 ---------- Given

2x+6=8 ----------- Distributive Postulate

2x = 2 ---------- Subtraction property of equality

x=1 ---------- Division property of equality

1) 2(x+3)=8 would be the Given.

2)2x+6=8 would be the distributive postulate.

3)2x=2 would be the subtraction property of Equality.

4) x=1 would be the division property of Equality

(96 + 8)(5)

= 520

143 + 520 - 42

= 663

663 - 42

A mixture of pulverized fuel ash and Portland cement to be used for grouting should have a compression strength of more than 130

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is: u >= 1300 KN/m^2

And the alternative hypothesis is:

u < 1300 KN/m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis describes hat there is no difference or assiciation between variables of a specific population or that it is a particular average value while the alternative hypothesis states otherwise.

In this case study, the null hypothesis is: u >= 1300 KN/m^2

And the alternative hypothesis is:

u < 1300 KN/m^2.

Passing through (-2,-6) and parallel to the line whose equation is y=-3x+4

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

y = -3x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same gradient.

Therefore using the point (-2,-6) you can make your own equation.

-6 will be y, -2 will be x

All you have to do is find the y-intercept which is C in y=mx+c

-6 = -3(-2) + c

-6 = 6 + c

-12 = c

Therefore;

y = -3x - 12
