1 Expand.

8x-6-8=4+2x8x−6−8=4+2x

2 Simplify 8x-6-88x−6−8 to 8x-148x−14.

8x-14=4+2x8x−14=4+2x

3 Add 1414 to both sides.

8x=4+2x+148x=4+2x+14

4 Simplify 4+2x+144+2x+14 to 2x+182x+18.

8x=2x+188x=2x+18

5 Subtract 2x2x from both sides.

8x-2x=188x−2x=18

6 Simplify 8x-2x8x−2x to 6x6x.

6x=186x=18

7 Divide both sides by 66.

x=\frac{18}{6}x=

8 Simplify \frac{18}{6}

to 33.

x=3x=3

Done Hope this helps let me know if u have any questions thank you

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Expand.

8x-6-8=4+2x8x−6−8=4+2x

2 Simplify 8x-6-88x−6−8 to 8x-148x−14.

8x-14=4+2x8x−14=4+2x

3 Add 1414 to both sides.

8x=4+2x+148x=4+2x+14

4 Simplify 4+2x+144+2x+14 to 2x+182x+18.

8x=2x+188x=2x+18

5 Subtract 2x2x from both sides.

8x-2x=188x−2x=18

6 Simplify 8x-2x8x−2x to 6x6x.

6x=186x=18

7 Divide both sides by 6.

x= 18/6

8 Simplify 18/6 to 3

x=3

I need help with this <br><br> 10 points <br><br> Pls pls pls someone come help me

Vikki [24]

Answer:

angle b is 62 degrees. This is because if we solve for x, by putting the 2 equations equal to each other(because they are vertical angles), than we figure out that x=6. Now plug that into angle b's equation, and you get 62 degrees.

Which is an equation of the line with a slope of 2/3 passing through the point (4,-1)?

Bond [772]

Answer:

y=2/3x-11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the y intercept, you can input your values into the equation:

b=y1−m⋅x1

When you do that, you get:

b=−1−(2/3)⋅(4)=−11/3

When you convert that equation into y=mx+b form, you get:

y=2/3x-11/3

Imagine a pond. In it sits one lilypad, which reproduces once a day. Each of its offspring also reproduces once a day, doubling

sergeinik [125]

Answer: On the 29th day

Step-by-step explanation:

According to this problem, no lilypad dies and the lilypads always reproduce, so we can apply the following reasoning.

On the first day there is only 1 lilypad in the pond. On the second day, the lilypad from the first reproduces, so there are 2 lilypads. On day 3, the 2 lilypads from the second day reproduce, so there are 2×2=4 lilypads. Similarly, on day 4 there are 8 lilypads. Following this pattern, on day 30 there are 2×N lilypads, where N is the number of lilypads on day 29.

The pond is full on the 30th day, when there are 2×N lilypads, so it is half-full when it has N lilypads, that is, on the 29th day. Actually, there are $2^{30}$ lilypads on the 30th, and $2^{29}$ lilypads on the 29th. This can be deduced multiplying succesively by 2.

HI PLEASE HELP BELOW IM REALL IN NEED OF HELP

aalyn [17]

The answer is 3, because the other two sides are 3 and the angle is 60, so the other angles will have to be 60. That means it is an equilateral triangle.
