First, you must distribute 2(3x-1).
To do that, you will multiply 2•3x, and 2•-1 because you are taking the number outside of the parentheses and multiplying (distributing) it to all the numbers inside

After distributing, the left side of your inequality will be 6x-2

Now you have
6x - 2 \geqslant 4x - 6

To find the value of x, you must subtract an x value from both sides of the equation, as well as a constant from each side.

so you have
6x - 2 \geqslant 4x - 6 \\ - 6x \geqslant + 6
And that will make the equation
- 4 \geqslant - 2x
Now, divide the variable side, ***BUT, because you are dividing by a negative number in an inequality, the inequality will switch sides.

Then, the value of x is greater than or equal to 2

A cube-shaped box has a volume of 1/8 of a cubic meter. What is the perimeter of each of its
belka [17]

Given:

The volume of a cube-shaped box is \dfrac{1}{8} cubic meter.

To find:

The perimeter of each of its faces.

Solution:

Let "a" be the side length of the cube shaped box. Then the volume of the box is:

V=(side)^3

V=a^3

It is given that the volume of a cube-shaped box is \dfrac{1}{8}  cubic meter.

a^3=\dfrac{1}{8}

Taking cube root on both sides, we get

a=\dfrac{1}{2}

Now, the perimeter of each face of a cube is:

P=4a

Where, a is the side length of the cube.

Putting a=\dfrac{1}{2}, we get

P=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}

P=2

Therefore, the perimeter of each face of a cube-shaped box is 2 meters.

A beekeeper has 65,000 female bees and 700 male bees in one colony. A disease kills % of the female bees and % of the male bees.
Paha777 [63]

Complete Question

A beekeeper has 65,000 female bees and 700 male bees in one colony. A disease kills 25% of the female bees and 14% of the male bees. After the disease hits the colony, the beekeeper decides to sell LaTeX: \frac{1}{2} 1 /2 of the remaining female bees to a friend.

How many total bees are left in the beekeeper’s colony after the disease and sale?

Answer:

24977 bees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question:

Number of female bees = 65,000

Number of male bees = 700

A disease kills 25% of the female bees and 14% of the male bees.

Number of female bees killed = 25% × 65,000

= 16,250 bees

Amount of female bees left = 65,000 - 16,250

= 48750 bees

Number of male bees killed = 14% × 700

= 98

Amount of male bees left = 700 - 98

= 602 bees

After the disease hits the colony, the beekeeper decides to sell LaTeX: \frac{1}{2} 1 /2 of the remaining female bees to a friend.

Hence:

1/2 × 48750 bees

= 24375 bees

Total bees are left in the beekeeper’s colony after the disease and sale is calculated as:

24375 female bees + 602 male bees

= 24977 bees
