The equation is 2 by 3 x -8 is equal to 4 by 8

2 X by 3 is equal to 4 + 6 all by 8

X equal to 4.2

hence the number is 4.2

Answer:

The correct answer is that the number is 12.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

While this question is written in a convoluted manner, it is asking you to decrease 2/3x by 8. This is the expression for that.

2/3x - 8

And it is saying that it is equal to 4/8, which can be simplified to 1/2.

2/3x - 8 = 1/2

Now we can solve for the x.

2/3x - 8 = 1/2

2/3x = 17/2

x = 12.75

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that
[<span>amount of fabric]=8*[area of lateral triangle side]
area of lateral triangle side=(1/2)*4*5----> 10 ft</span>²
so
[amount of fabric]=8*[10]----> 80 ft²

the answer is
80 ft²

A group of dental researchers are testing the effects of acidic drinks on dental crowns. They have five containers of crowns lab
mestny [16]

Answer:

\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

S = \{V,W,X,Y,Z\}

n(S) = 5

Required

The probability model

To do this, we simply calculate the probability of each container.

So, we have:

P(V) = \frac{n(V)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20

P(W) = \frac{n(W)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20

P(X) = \frac{n(X)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20

P(Y) = \frac{n(Y)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20

P(Z) = \frac{n(Z)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20

So, the probability model is:

\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}
