Solve for x. x-8=-20

Mathematics
1 answer:
NeX [460]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

x - 8 = -20

Simply add +8 to both sides of the equation.

It becomes :

x - 8 +8 = -20 + 8

Note that, -8 + 8 will cancel out, and results to zero.

Therefore the equation becomes :

x = -20 + 8

x = -12.

Hope this helped!

A poll asks shoppers at the mall how many cups of water they typically drink in a day. The results of the poll are listed below.

First you find the median, the middle term (if there are an even number of terms it is the average of the middle two terms.)  Since you have 21 terms, odd, you just use the middle term, in this case 8.  The first quartile works the same way, but just on the left half between the start and the median...so the first quartile is 6.

A moose population is growing exponentially following the pattern in the table shown below. Assuming that the pattern continues,
Alika [10]

The population of the moose after 12 years is 7692

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the exponential growth function is y=a(b)^{x} , where

  • a is the initial value
  • b is the growth factor

The table:

→  x  :  y

→  0  :  40

→  1   :  62

→  2  :  96

→  3  :  149

→  4  :  231

To find the value of a , b in the equation use the data in the table

∵ At x = 0 , y = 40

- Substitute them in the form of the equation above

∵ 40=a(b)^{0}

- Remember any number to the power of zero is 1 (except 0)

∴ 40 = a(1)

∴ a = 40

- Substitute the value of a in the equation

∴ y=40(b)^{x}

∵ At x = 1 , y = 62

- Substitute them in the form of the equation above

∵ 62=40(b)^{1}

∴ 62 = 40 b

- Divide both sides by 40

∴ 1.55 ≅ b

∴ The growth factor is about 1.55

- Substitute its value in the equation

∴ The equation of the population is y=40(1.55)^{x}

To find the population of moose after 12 years substitute x by 12 in the equation

∵ y=40(1.55)^{12}

∴ y ≅ 7692

The population of the moose after 12 years is 7692

HELP MEE IM DIEING please i need help I'm very stupid and idk these things and if u could explain to me how I can add fractions
Dafna1 [17]
Fraction adding: Okay, so if you have two fractions with the same denominator like 2/3 and 1/3 then they are easily added. Just add the numerators together and then keep the denominator. Like this: 2/3 + 1/3 = 3/3 or 1 whole. Here is something for fractions with unlike denominators.

Divide $210 in the ratio 2:5
RideAnS [48]
Let us say Karen received X amount of money. Then Natasha has received (X+210).
The ratio that the money divided was 2:5.
X/(X+210) = 2/5
5X = 2(X+210)
3X = 420
X = 140
Total money shared
= X+(X+210)
= 140+140+210
= 490

So the total money shared was $490.
