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.

To find the number

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

Select the correct answer.

For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

$V = A_ {b} * h$

Where:

$A_ {b}:$ It is the area of the base of the prism

h: It is the height

$A_ {b} = w * l$

Where:

w: is the width

l: is the length

According to the data of the statement we have:

$w = 16 \ in\\l = 4h\\V = 4,096 \ in ^ 3$

Substituting the data we have:

$A_ {b} = 16 * 4h = 64h\\64h * h = 4,096\\64h ^ 2 = 4,096\\h ^ 2 = \frac {4096} {64}\\h ^ 2 = 64\\h = \pm \sqrt {64}\\$

We choose the positive value: $h = 8$

So the height is $8 \ in$

Answer:

$8 \ in$

The bar graph in the following graphic represents fictional net exports in billions of dollars for five countries. Net exports a

harina [27]

Answer:

$80 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we have the following:

$United\ States = -110$

$Denmark = -30$

$China = 120$

$Germany = 40$

$Spain = 30$

Required

Determine the difference in US and Denmark exports

The difference is calculated as thus:

$Difference = Denmark - United\ States$

This gives:

$Difference = -30 - (-110)$

$Difference = -30 +110$

$Difference = 80$

Hence, the difference is $80 billion
