What is the solution to 2x + 8 > 10 ?

1 answer:

6 0

2x + 8 > 10
You first move + 8 to the other side, so you subtract 8
(When you see addition, you perform subtraction)
2x + 8 - 8 > 10 - 8
+ 8 and - 8 cancels out
2x > 2
Now, to isolate x, you should divide both sides by 2
(When you see multiplication, you perform division)
$\frac{2x}{2}$ > $\frac{2}{2}$
2 and 2 cancels out and we are left with
x > 1
So your final answer will be x > 1

Answer:

4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 42 = 18x - 12 (alternate angles)

or, 18x - 6x = 42+12

or, 12x = 54

or, x = 54/12

x= 4.5

A football player is running the length of a 100 yard long football field. For the first part of the field, he runs at a rate of

notka56 [123]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}$ th part of the field is covered in the second sprint.

Step-by-step explanation:

A football player is running the length of a 100 yard long football field.

Let player sprints x yards with the speed = 2 yards per second.

So time taken to cover x yards player will take time = $\frac{x}{2}$ seconds

Now rest distance (100 - x) yards when covered with the speed of 4 yards per second, so time taken to cover this distance = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

= $\frac{100-x}{4}$ seconds

Now total time taken by the player can be represented by the equation

$\frac{x}{2}+\frac{100-x}{4}=40$

Now we can solve this equation for the value of x.

$\frac{2x+100-x}{4}=40$

x + 100 = 40×4

x + 100 = 160

x = 160 - 100 = 60 yards

And length of the second part will be = 100 - 60 = 40 yards

Now the fraction of the field covered by the player in second sprint will be

= $\frac{40}{100}$

= $\frac{2}{5}$ or 40%

Therefore, $\frac{2}{5}$ th part of the field was covered in second sprint.

Answer:

The polygon has 9 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A regular polygon has equal length sides and equal interior angles

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Remember that

The interior angle plus the exterior angle must be equal to 180 degrees (form a linear pair)

Let

x ----> the measure of each interior angle in the regular polygon

$x+40^o=180^o$

solve for x

$x=180^o-40^o=140^o$

step 2

Find the number of sides of the regular polygon

we know that

The measure of each interior angle in a regular polygon is given by the formula

$x=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}$

where

n is the number of sides of the polygon

substitute the given values

$140^o=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}$

solve for n

$140n=180n-360\\180n-140n=360\\40n=360\\n=9\ sides$

therefore

The polygon has 9 sides

Researchers have concluded that a dry basin began to fill with water in 1880. the water level rose an average of 1.6 millimeters

docker41 [41]

Answer:

the domain is [0,129]
112 mm
1942

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The function is good for years 1880 to 2009, 0 to 129 years after 1880. Values of x can be anything in the domain [0, 129].

2. 1950 -1880 = 70. The year 1950 corresponds to x=70, so the function tells us the water level rose ...

f(70) = 1.6·70 = 112 . . . . . mm

3. We want to find x when f(x) = 100. That will be the solution to ...

100 = 1.6x

100/1.6 = x = 62.5

Then 62.5 years after 1880 is year 1942.5. The water level was 100 mm higher than in 1880 in the year 1942.
