Subtract six from both sides to get 4x = 32. divide both sides by 4 to get x = 8.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the equation:

4x + 6 = 38

4x = 38 - 6

4x = 32

x = 32 ÷ 4

x = 8

8x + 11 = 2(4x - 7) + 25<br> Step by step please!

Dimas [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 11=2(4x-7) + 25

8x + 11 = 8x - 14 + 25

8x + 11=8x- 14 + 14 +25 + 11

8x-8x + 11 -11 = 14 + 25 + 11

8x-8x =14 + 25 + 11

X = 50

a woman is 10 times as old as her daughter. In 8 years she will be 4 times as old as her daughter. How okd is her mother now?

Bond [772]

Answer:

48 yr. old

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume daughter is 4 and mom is 10 times her age, so mom is 40.

10 (woman) * 4 (daughter's age) = 40 yr. old mom

Present day...

40 (yr old mom) + 8 (yrs later) = 48 yr. old mom today

4 (yr old daughter) + 8 (yrs later) = 12 yr. old daughter today

So, if mom is 4 times as her daughter's age today...

48 (yr. old mom) / 12 (yr. old daughter) = 4

A rectangle is 20 meters long and 20 meters wide. If the length is increased by 10% and the width is decreased by 10%, what is t

Solnce55 [7]

Consider that the initial length and width of the rectangle are given as,

$\begin{gathered} l=20 \\ b=20 \end{gathered}$

After the length is increased by 10%, the new length (L) of the rectangle is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} L=(1+\frac{10}{100})\cdot l \\ L=(\frac{110}{100})\cdot20 \\ L=22 \end{gathered}$

After the width is decreased by 10%, the new width (B) of the rectangle is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} B=(1-\frac{10}{100})\cdot b \\ B=(\frac{90}{100})\cdot20 \\ B=18 \end{gathered}$

Then the area (A) of the new rectangle is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} A=L\times B \\ A=22\times18 \\ A=396 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the new area of the rectangle is 396 square meters.

The weights of professional wrestlers are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 220 pounds and a standard deviation

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a random variable X is denoted by F(x), and is defined as

F(x) = P(X ≤ x). where x is the largest possible value of X that is less than or equal to x

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where:

x is the raw score = 205

μ is the population mean, = 220 pounds

σ is the population standard deviation = 7 pounds

205 -220/7

z = -15/7

z = -2.1428571429

Using the normal cdf function on your graphing calculator,the cumulative distribution is

normalcdf( -2.1428571429, 100)

= 0.01606229

In percent form = 0.01606229 × 100

= 1.6%
