Three times a number =   3x

Increased by 8 =               + 8

So far we have:  3x + 8

no more than =    <=  

the number decreased by 4 =  x -4

Put it all together and we have:

3x + 8 <= x - 4

Solve for x

3x + 8 <= x - 4

3x - x <= -4 - 8

2x <= -12

2x / 2 <= -12 / 2

x <= -6

-6 is the number / answer.

Given that the chip has a dimension of 8 mm by 8 mm which can be written as 0.8 cm by 0.8 cm, is drawn to scale and the dimensions of the plot is 4 cm by 4 cm, the scale of the drawing will be:
0.8 cm is represented by 4 cm
thus;
4 cm rep 0.8 cm

Fofino [41]
<span>Using the information we have 3x+4=40 Do the same to each side of the equation to eliminate for x. 3x+4=40 Minus 4 from each side 3x=40-4 3x=36 Divide 3 from each side x=36/3 x=12 AC=3x+4 insert the value of x 3(12)+4=40 AC=40 AD=20</span>

Complete the square for 3x^2-12x=9
larisa [96]

Answer:

The solutions are -0.65 and 4.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 12x = 9

Divide both sides by 3

x^2 - 4x = 3

To make a square with "x^2 - 4x", you need to have a "+ 4" after it so it can be simplified as (x-2)^2.  So add 4 to both sides.

x^2 - 4x + 4 = 7

(x-2)^2 = 7

x - 2 = (square root) of 7

x = 2 (+/-) (square root) of 7.

x = {-0.65, 4.65}

The solutions are -0.65 and 4.65.

hope this helps:)sorry if it doesnt
