Sum of ratios: 3 + 7 + 2 = 12

Measure of smallest; sum of angles in triangle = 180

Smallest: (2/12)* 180 = 30

30°

Which of the following equations has a solution x = 4? Select all that apply.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

$-2(3x - 4) = -16$ and $20- 15x = 6 - 2(4x + 7)$

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$-2(3x - 4) = -16$

$\frac{1}{2}(10x + 2) = 6$

$20- 15x = 6 - 2(4x + 7)$

$\frac{1}{3}(9x - 12) + 6=-10$

Required

Equations with $x = 4$ as a solution

$-2(3x - 4) = -16$

Divide both sides by -2

$3x - 4 = 8$

Add 4 to both sides

$3x - 4 +4= 8+4$

$3x =12$

Divide both sides by 3

$x = 4$

$\frac{1}{2}(10x + 2) = 6$

Multiply both sides by 2

$10x + 2 = 12$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$10x + 2 -2= 12-2$

$10x = 10$

Divide both sides by 1

$x = 1$

$20- 15x = 6 - 2(4x + 7)$

Open bracket

$20 - 15x = 6 - 8x - 14$

Collect like terms

$8x - 15x = 6 - 14 - 20$

$-7x = -28$

Divide both sides by -7

$x = 4$

$\frac{1}{3}(9x - 12) + 6=-10$

Subtract 6 from both sides

$\frac{1}{3}(9x - 12) + 6-6=-10-6$

$\frac{1}{3}(9x - 12) =-16$

Multiply both sides by 3

$9x - 12 = -48$

Add 12 to both sides

$9x - 12 +12= -48+12$

$9x = -36$

Divide both sides by 4

$x =-4$

<em></em> $-2(3x - 4) = -16$ <em> and </em> $20- 15x = 6 - 2(4x + 7)$ <em> have </em> $x = 4$ <em> has a solution</em>

1) A librarian noticed that 60% of seventh graders checked out fantasy books. About how many of 240 seventh graders would checko

katovenus [111]

We have been given that a librarian noticed that 60% of seventh graders checked out fantasy books. We are asked to find the number of seventh graders from 240 seventh graders, who would checkout fantasy books.

To solve our given problem, we need to find 60% of 240.

$\text{Seventh graders, who would checkout fantasy books}=240\times \frac{60}{100}$

$\text{Seventh graders, who would checkout fantasy books}=240\times 0.60$

$\text{Seventh graders, who would checkout fantasy books}=144$

Therefore, 144 seventh graders would checkout fantasy books.

A tortoise traveled 1/6 kilometer in 7/8 hour. What was its average speed in kilometers per hour?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

4/21 kilometers per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the tortoise traveled 1/6 kilometers in 7/8 hour we can divide 1/6 by 7 because 7/8 divided by 7 is 1/8 and get 1/42.Once we've done this we can then multiply 1/6 by 8 since 1/8 x 8= 8/8 or 1 hour and get 8/48 which simplifies to 4/21.
