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

Answer:

  2x² +5x -12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...

  (x -p)(x -q) = 0

Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...

  (x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0

Multiplying by 2 gives us ...

  (x +4)(2x -3) = 0

Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...

  2x² +5x -12 = 0

Georgia [21]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "C. f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35." The equation that represents Marisa’s library fine as a function of a book that is n days overdue is f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35

Here are the following choices:
A. f(n) = 0.15n
<span>B. f(n) = 0.50n
</span><span>C. f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35
</span>D. f(n) = 0.50n + 0.15

What is the area of a square with a side of 8x^7 y^3
sukhopar [10]
Area of a square with side s is \sf{s^2}

In your question, the side or s is: \sf{8x^7y^3}

And so the area of a square with that side length would be:

\sf{(8x^7y^3)^2}

And using this formula: \sf{(a^b)^c =a^{b\times c}}

We get that the area is:

\sf{(8x^7y^3)^2 = 8^2 x^{7\times 2} y^{3\times 2}}

And simplifying that we get the final answer as:

\huge{\boxed{\bf{Area=64x^{14}y^{6}}}}
