To find the area of a triangle, multiply the height (6) by the base (4) and divide by 2.
- 6 • 4 = 24, 24 / 2 = 12.
The area of this triangle is 12.
Hello there I hope you are having a great day :)
Your Question, -4(2x + 4) > 8x + 64 Solve for X
1) Expand -8x-16>8x+64
2) Add 16 to both sides -8x-16+16>8x+64+16
3) Simplify -8x>8x+80
4) Subtract 8x from both sides -8x-8x>8x+80-8x
5) Simplify -16x>80
6) Multiply both sides -1 (Reverse the inequality) (-16x) (-1) >80 (-1)
7) Simplify 16x<-80
8) divide both sides by 16 16x/16 < -80/16
9) Simplify x < -5
This should be your answer x < -5
Hopefully that helps you :)
Let's call n the number of days Marika's been training for the race, and 
the distance she runs on the nth day in meters. After the first day, when n = 1, she runs 100 meters, so
On the second day, she runs an additional 4 meters, on the third day, another 4, and so on. Here's what that looks like mathematically:
It would be easier to write this continued addition as multiplication, in which case those same equations would look like
Notice that, in every case, the number 4 is being multiplied by is 1 less than n. We could even write for our first term that 
. In general, we can say that
Which is expressed by option B.
(Bonus: What piece of information from this question did we not need to use here?)
When calculating consecutive integers, the smaller number is x and the larger number is (x + 1).
So the equation you can use is x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
This is because the sum of the consecutive integers are equal to 5 more than 3 times the larger integer.
Now simplify:
x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3x + 3
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Now isolate the variable:
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
1 = x + 8
Subtract 8 from both side:
-7 = x
x = -7
So the smaller number is -7 and the larger number is -6.
Now check your answer:
-7 + (-7 + 1) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 - 6 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-6)
-13 = 5 + (-18)
-13 = 5 - 18
-13 = -13
This works!
So the integers are -7 and -6.
