First, let's break the worded equation up into two parts:

- "<span>4 times a number less than 6'

This is 4 * (6-x)

- "</span><span>8 more than twice that number"

This is 2x+8


Now combine these two expressions:

</span>4 * (6-x) =  2x+8

4 * (6-x) = 2 * (x+4) 

2 * (6-x) = x+4

12-2x = x+4

-3x = -8

x = 8/3


If you have any questions, please leave it in the comment section below.

Hope this helps!

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

7x4=−6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

74x=−6

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 4/7.

(47)*(74x)=(47)*(−6)

x=−247

A group of kids just finished trick-or-treating. The number of pieces of candy collected by each of the 5 kids
NemiM [27]

Answer:

s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

s =\sqrt{\frac{(31-35)^2 +(33-35)^2 +(36-35)^2 +(41-35)^2 +(34-35)^2}{5-1}} =3.808

And the answer for this case would be :

s= 3.81 after round the value

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set given:

31, 33, 36, 41, 34

If we want to find the standard deviation we need to find first the sample mean with this formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And replacing we got:

\bar X = \frac{31+33+36+41+34}{5}= \frac{175}{5}= 35

Now we can find the sampel deviation with this formula:

s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And replacing we got:

s =\sqrt{\frac{(31-35)^2 +(33-35)^2 +(36-35)^2 +(41-35)^2 +(34-35)^2}{5-1}} =3.808

And the answer for this case would be :

s= 3.81 after round the value

The architect drew a design for the new kitchen. What is the area of the kitchen drawing?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the kitchen = Area small rectangle + area large rectangle + area triangle

Area small rectangle = (8-4)*1.5

Area large rectangle = (8-4)* 3

Area triangle = (1/2)*base*height = (1/2)*4*3

Area of the kitchen = (8-4)*1.5 +  (8-4)* 3 + (1/2)*4*3 = 24 cm²

Can someone help me Thank you​
Mazyrski [523]

Okay. Let’s begin!

I order to solve this problem we must u do it and redo it. We have to find the diameter and the radius

Step one: 15 divided by 3.14 (PI) which is 4.77707006. That’s the diameter. Now divide that by two for the radius which is 2.38853503

Step two: find the area

Formula: PI(r)^2

Step three: solve for the area

3.14(2.38853503)^2

Step four: answer

Your answer is.....

17.9140127. Or if ur rounding:

18.

I hope this helped!
