<span>A composite number, we remember, is a whole number (no decimals or fractions) that can evenly divide (again, into no fractions or decimals) into two numbers other than itself and 1 (sort of the opposite of a prime number).
So, 8 needs to be one of the two numbers. Pick another number--any whole number--and multiply it by 8. The result will be your composite number.
Two examples: 8 times 6 equals 48. This works as 48 divided by 8 equals 6, both of which are whole numbers other than 48. Another is 72, the product of 8 times 9.</span>
Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known.
It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown".
But in some cases, x can be equal to 1 like example when working with exponents.
Step-by-step explanation:
A-length
b-width
perimeter of rectangular floor: 2a+2b=204
<span>The length is two times the width: a=2b
</span>2a + 2b = 204
2*2b + 2b = 204
6b = 204|:6
b = 34
a=2b=2*34=68
a=68->length
b=34->width
Answer: Choice C
Closed filled in circle at -3; shading to the right.
========================================================
Explanation:
Follow the steps shown below to isolate x. Note that the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.
Here's another way to isolate x
The inequality sign flip happens much earlier when we go from the format of 
to 
(in step 3)
The graph of this will have a closed filled in circle at -3, then shading to the right to describe all values -3 or larger.
This is why we go for choice C.
