Answer:
C. Four less than the product of two and a number is less than the product of four and the same number increased by eight.
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Converting expressions to word form
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
2x - 4 < 4x + 8
<u>Step 2: Translate</u>
"2x" is the product of two and a number <em>x</em>
" - 4" is four less
"<" is less than
"4x" is the product of four and a number <em>x</em>
" + 8" is increased by 8
<u>Step 3: Combine</u>
The difference between the product of two and a number <em>x</em> and 4 is less than the sum of the product of four and a number <em>x</em> and 8.
<u>Step 4: Reword</u>
Four less than the product of two and a number is less than the product of four and the same number increased by eight.
Answer:
-2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope of a line by using
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
= (6-4)/(41-46)
= 2/-5
= -2/5
Answer:
move the decimal point two points to the right
Well, you only listed three pieces so far. But I can already see a
pattern emerging from those three.
Of course, the next piece might return to 1-1/2 inches. I mean,
the pattern can't just keep on going and increasing forever or
Cody would eventually wind up with pieces that are a mile long.
It must eventually return to 1-1/2 inches and start over from there.
From the first piece to the second one, and from the second one
to the third one, the increase is 5/16 inch both times. So if the
pattern is more than three pieces long before it starts over from
1-1/2, then the next piece is
(2-1/8 + 5/16) = (2-2/16 + 5/16) = 2-7/16 inches .
