Cross multiply.

4(x - 8) = 5(2)

4x - 32 = 10

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x = 21/2

x = 10.5

Roger is playing a board game and rolls two number cubes. Let A = {the sum of the number cubes is even}, and let B = {the sum of
____ [38]
The answer is A ∪ B = {2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12}

A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}
B = {5, 10}

A ∪ B. The union of two sets is everything in both sets. So we will combine the outcomes in set A and set B. Since in set B 10 is an even number, we will just add number 5 in <span>A ∪ B.
</span>
A ∪ B = {2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12}
