<u>Step by Step Explanation:</u>
16. x - 4 = 4
Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 4 to both sides:
x - 4 (+4) = 4 (+4)
x = 4 + 4
x = 8
17. a/4 = 4
Isolate the variable (a). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 4 to both sides:
(a/4)(4) = (4)(4)
a = (4)(4)
a = 16
18. y * 20 = 30
Isolate the variable (y). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Divide 20 from both sides.
(y *20)/20 = (30)/20
y = 30/20
y = 3/2 or 1.5
19. x/5 = 20
Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 5 to both sides
(x/5)(5) = (20)(5)
x = (20)(5)
x = 100

<span>In order to determine the total number of errors that were made by the bar code scanner, we first have to calculate how many total scans were made. Because there were six items scanned 1,000 times each, there were 6,000 total scans made. Next, we have to add up the total number of errors made by each item (36+14+21+39+11+2). As a result, there were a total of 123 errors made during the 6,000 scans.</span>
The perimeter of a triangle is:
P = a + b + c
We are given that:
b = a + 3
c = 2 a – 3
Therefore:
68 = a + a + 3 + 2 a – 3
68 = 4 a
a = 17
and,
b = a + 3 = 20
<span>c = 2a – 3 = 31</span>
Answer:
they are both true
Step-by-step explanation:
they are both true because of proportionalities
5/8
5x2=10
8x2=16
therefore 5/8=10/16
the second one is also true because they want you to multiply y by 2
4x2=8
therefore
5/8=5/4x2
