Answer:

2x-8 = 20-6x

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property tells us to multiply the term outside parentheses by everything inside:

2(x-4) = 5(4-2x)+4x

2(x)+2(-4) = 5(4)+5(-2x)+4x

2x-8 = 20-10x+4x

Combining like terms on the right gives us

2x-8 = 20-6x

we have

2(x-4)=5(4-2x)+4x

2x-4*2=5*4-5*2x+4x

2x-8=20-10x+4x

2x+10x-4x=20+8

8x=28------------> equation to solve

x=28/8


the answer is

8x=28

What is the perimeter of triangle ABC? Round each step to the nearest tenth. Please help me
Ad libitum [116K]

I would use the pythagorean theorem to find the lengths of each side. a² + b² = c².

Side AB is one we're looking for. If you make other right triangle with that same side you can see that one length is 4 and the other is 3. So, 4² + 3² = c² → 25 = c² → 5 = c. Side AB is length 5.

Side AC is another. Do the same with that side and you get that one length is 4 and the other is 3. (This is the same one as above) so side AC is length 5.

Side BC is the last one. One of the lengths is 1 and the other is 1 → 1² + 1² = c² → 2 = c² → 1.414213562 = c so side BC is approximately length 1.41.

Add each length up and you get a perimeter of roughly 11.4

Which expression is equivalent to (x^1/4y^16)^1/2 ?
jekas [21]

expression is equivalent to  (x^{\frac{1}{4}} y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}}

We apply exponential property

Multiply the outside exponent 1/2 with exponents inside the parenthesis

(x^{\frac{1}{4}} y^{16})^{\frac{1}{2}}

(x^{\frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{2}} y^{16*\frac{1}{2}})

1/4 times 1/2 is 1/8  

16 times 1/2 is 8

so expression becomes

(x^{\frac{1}{8}} y^{8})

So the answer is

(x^{\frac{1}{8}} y^{8})
