A is the correct answer.

2x+4=4x-2
2x+4+2=4x-2+2
2x+6=4x
2x-2x+6=4x-2x
6/2=2x/2
3=x

The correct answer is A, as you add two to both sides, giving 2x +6=4x, then subtract 2x from both sides, giving 6=2x, and then divide both sides by 2, giving 3=x.

The diameter of a sphere is 8 centimeters. What is the volume of the sphere? Use 3.14 for pi. Enter your answer, as a decimal, i

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The volume of a sphere is given by the equation $V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ , where r is the radius.

We are given the diameter of the sphere, but recall that the diameter is twice the radius: $d=2r$ . So the radius is half of the diameter: $r= \frac{1}{2}d$ .

Half of 8 cm is 4 cm.

We substitute this for r in the equation and we use 3.14 for π.

$V= \frac{4}{3}(3.14)(4)^3= \frac{(4^4)(3.14)}{3}=267.9 \ cm^3$

A city lot measures 100 feet x 250 feet. The city zoning ordinance specifies that maximum lot coverage is 40% of the lot. What i

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

10,000 square feet is the maximum size for a building on this slot.

Step-by-step explanation:

A city lot measures 100 feet x 250 feet. The city zoning ordinance specifies that maximum lot coverage is 40%of the lot.

First we find the total area of city = 100 x 250

Area = 25,000 square feet

Maximum coverage area is 40% of city area

Maximum size of for building on this lot = 40% of 25,000

Now we calculate 40% of 25,000

Maximum size for building = 0.40 x 25000 = 10,000 square feet

Thus, 10,000 square feet is the maximum size for a building on this slot.
