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!

I need help with Part A and B
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Part A) 700 Snack Bags

Part B) [$]1225.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretzels and cheese puffs make up 30% (0.30) of the sales which means 210 is 30% of the total bags they sold. You could set up a ratio like this where 1 represents 100%:

210/.30 = x/1

If solved out, you find there are 700 bags total and you can check it by finding that 210 is 30% of 700.

Which measurement could create more than one triangle? A.? A triangle with sides measuring 5 inches, 7 inches, 9 inches B. A tri
rewona [7]

Answer: B. A triangle with sides measuring 50 mm 35 mm and a non-included angle measuring 25° .

Step-by-step explanation:

A. A triangle with sides measuring 5 inches, 7 inches, 9 inches

Only one triangle can be possible because all the triangles with equal sides must be equal by SSS congruence rule.

B. A triangle with sides measuring 50 mm ,35 mm and a non-included angle measuring 25°.

More than one triangle can be possible because there is no congruence rule for two equal sides and one non-equal angle ( no SSA rule exist).

C. A triangle with sides measuring 5 cm, 10 cm, and 15 cm .

This triangle is not possible because it doesn't satisfy triangle's inequality as 5+10=15  [Triangles inequality : a+b> c, where a, b, c are sides of triangle]

D. A triangle with sides measuring 8 cm and 12 cm in an included angle measuring 85°.

Only one triangle can be possible because all the triangles have two equal sides and their included angle is equal by SAS congruence rule.

Hence, the required measurement to create more than one triangle:

A triangle with sides measuring 50 mm 35 mm and a non-included angle measuring 25° .

So, correct option is B.
