Hey there! :)
Answer:
Choice C: x + 8 = 3x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this question by simplifying each answer choice:
a) 4x = 20
Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 20/4
x = 5. This is incorrect.
b) x/2 = 8
Multiply both sides by 2:
x = 16. This is incorrect.
c) x + 8 = 3x
Subtract x from both sides:
8 = 2x
Divide 2 from both sides:
x = 4. This is correct.
d) x = x+5 /2
Multiply both sides by 2:
2x = x + 5
Subtract x from both sides:
x = 5. This is incorrect.
Therefore, choice C is the correct answer.
Answer:
86
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
2x (or x2) =8
x=8/2
x=4
You have to take away the 2 in this case and divide the other side (8) by 2
First find the x and y values because where the lines will intersect, they share the point of the intersection so they will share the x and y coordinates.
Rearrange equations
To cancel y, we must do equation 1 minus equation 2. Similarly:
So the x coordinate is 3.
The y coordinate can be found with substitution of x into one of the equations:
So where the two lines intersect is at the point (3, 7), which is the solution to the equations.
It's easy, just plug the values requested in n & solve:
A(n)=4+(n-1)(8)
second, n=2 ==> A₂ = 4 +(2-1)(8) = 12
fourth, n=4 ===> A₄ = 4 +(4-1)(8) = 20
tenth, n=10 ==> A₁₀ = 4 + (10-1)(8) = 72
This an Arithmetic progression:
with 1st term a₁ =4 & d ( common difference) =8
