To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the following expression:

2[7-7x]=2x+4

2. To solve it, you must solve for the variable x, as following:

14-14x=2x+4  \\ x= \frac{10}{16}  \\ x= \frac{5}{8}

3. Checking for extraneous solutions:

x= \frac{5}{8}  \\ 2[7-7( \frac{5}{8}) ]=2 (\frac{5}{8}) +4  \\  \frac{21}{4} = \frac{21}{4}

\frac{5}{8} is a solution.

The answer is the option C: x=\frac{5}{8}

Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain

4. Read this sentence from the selection.

“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”

In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —

• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion


5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —

• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off


8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?

• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.

• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.

• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”

• She did not know any synonyms for the word.


9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?

• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words

• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good

• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis

• A person who likes dogs a lot and works at a veterinary clinic

A drama teacher has a budget of $120 to spend on materials to create costumes for a play. She can buy 1 square yard of white mat
Neporo4naja [7]

Inequalities are used to relate unequal expressions

The greatest whole number of square yards the teacher can buy is 4

The inequality is given as:

8x + 10y \le 120

When the <em>number of square yards </em>of the white fabrics is 10.

It means that: x = 10

So, we have:

8 \times 10 + 10y \le 120

80 + 10y \le 120

Collect like terms

10y \le 120 - 80

10y \le 40

Divide both sides by 10

y \le 4

The above inequality means that:

The greatest whole number of square yards the teacher can buy is 4

How long will it take for 2 g of a sample of iodine-131, which has a half-life of about 8 days, to decay to 0.04 g?
Zigmanuir [339]
We know that

<span>This problem can be represented through the following equation
</span>
A = A₀(1/2)^t/h
where
A----------->  is the amount of substance left after time t
A₀ ----------> is the original amount---------> 2 g
h------------->  is the half-life-----------> 8 days

for A=0.04 g
t=?
0.04 = 2(1/2)^t/8
0.02 = (1/2)^t/8
Take ln on both sides:
ln(0.02) = ln [(1/2)^t/8]
ln(0.02) = (t/8)(ln 1/2)
t = 8*ln(0.02)/ln(1/2)
t = 45.15 days

the answer is 45.15 days
