Answer:

$4x-8\geq 12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the mystery number

Multiply the mystery number by 4

Subtract 8

4x-8

The result is greater than or equal to 12

$4x-8\geq 12$ ----> inequality that models the number puzzle

Solve for x

$4x\geq 12+8$

$4x\geq 20$

$x\geq 5$

What is 16 divided by X^2 equals 8 divided by X + 6?

zaharov [31]

Solve: $\frac{16}{x^{2}} = \frac{8}{x + 6}$

$\frac{16}{x^{2}} = \frac{8}{x + 6}$

$\text{Cross multiply: } 16(x + 6) = 8x^{2}$
$\text{Simplify: } 2(x + 6) = x^{2}$
$\text{Expand: } 2x + 12 = x^{2}$

$\text{Solve for x: } x^{2} - 2x - 12 = 0$

$\text{Use the quadratic equation: } x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a}$
$x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4 + 48}}{2}$
$x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{52}}{2}$
$x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{13 \cdot 4}}{2}$

$x = \frac{2 \pm 2\sqrt{13}}{2}$
$\therefore x = 1 \pm \sqrt{13}$

What is the answer?

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

1:200

5.6 cm^2 : y (as actual area)

y = 200 mutifly 5.6 cm^2

y= 1120 cm^2

We know 1m =100cm

so, 1m^2 =100cm x 100 cm = 1000cm^2

y= 1120 m^2/ 100x100

= 0.112 m^2
