"Solve and check $8-(6-8x)=4x+4$ "...

Solve for x:
 $8-(6-8x)=4x+4$
Remove the Parenthesis.
$8-6-8x=4x+4$
Simplify.
$2-8x=4x+4$
Add -4 to both sides.
$(2-8x)+(-4)=(4x+4)+(-4)$
Simplify.
$-2-8x=4x$
Add 8x to both sides.
$(-2-8x)+8x=(4x)+8x$
Simplify.
$-2=12x$
Divide both sides by 12.
$(-2)/12=(12x)/12$
Simplify.
$-0.166666667=x$

The answer is: x=-0.166666667

Hope this helps.

Answer:

Option e

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of test for this sticky is a two tailed test: (either up or down) from the severe storm class rating.

Thus, the null hypothesis would be that u is equal to 16.4 feet while the alternative hypothesis would be that u is not equal to 16.4 feet; and the p value area is on both sides of the mean since it is a two tailed test.

A circle has a radius of 3.5. What is the circumference? Use 3.14 for Pi.

VikaD [51]

Answer:21.98

Step-by-step explanation:

It is because the formula for the circumference of a circle is 2 x 3.14 x r so I do the 2 x 3.14 and I get the 6.28 and then 6.28 x 3.5(radius) is 21.98.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

m = -1
m = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(3,\:5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-2,\:10\right)\\\\m=\frac{10-5}{-2-3}\\\\m=\frac{5}{-5}\\\\simplify\\\\m=-1$

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(5,\:-7\right),\:\\\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-2,\:-7\right)\\\\m=\frac{-7-\left(-7\right)}{-2-5}\\\\m=\frac{-7+7}{-7} \\\\m = \frac{0}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\m =0$
