Answer:

(A) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets define the number as x.

"8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number" is translated into "8(x - 6) = 4x"

8(x - 6) = 4x

8x - 48 = 4x

4x = 48

x = 12

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.  12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.

<u>To find the number</u>

Let x be the number, then we can write,

8 * (x - 6) = 4x

8x - 48 = 4x

8x - 4x = 48

4x = 48

x = 48/4 = 12

Therefore the correct answer is option A.  12

Leokris [45]

Answer:

78.539816 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate a circle's area you have to multiple pi with the square of the circle's radius (the radius of a circle is half of its diameter): π·5ft²

5ft² = 5ft·5ft = 25ft

π = 3.14159...

I need help on question 18. i would appreciate it; please and thank you :)
MaRussiya [10]

Hello!

First, let's take a look at the two angles together. We can see that the two angles, when the measures are combined, add up to form a line, DEF. We can therefore see that the two angles DEG and GEF must add up to 180 degrees, as the measure of a line is 180 degrees.

Therefore, we can create our equation.

(7x - 3) + (12x - 7) = 180

Now, solve for x.

7x - 3 + 12x - 7 = 180

19x = 190

x = 10

Finally, substitute x into the angle measures to find the integer measurements.

Angle DEG: 7x - 3

7 * 10 - 3

70 - 3

67 degrees

Angle GEF: 12x - 7

12 * 10 - 7

120 - 7

113 degrees

Just to be sure, add up the angle measurements to make sure they equal 180. 67 + 113 = 180, which means we did our math correctly.

Hope this helps!
