8(x - 6) = 4x
Distribute.
8x - 48 = 4x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
8x -8x - 48 =4x -8x
Now you have...
-48 = -4x
Divide -4 by both sides.
-48/-4 = -4x/-4
12 = x
The number is 12.

Answer:  12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given statement: 8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.

then, the required equation :

8(x-6)=4x

Divide both sides by 4 , we gte

\dfrac{8(x-6)}{4}=\dfrac{4x}{4}

Simplify

2(x-6)=x

Multiply 2 inside the parenthesis.

2x-12=x

Subtract x and add 12 on both sides , we gte

2x-x-12+12=x-x+12

Simplify

x=12

Hence, the number is <u>12</u>.

7. Quadrilateral MNPQ has vertices M(4,0), N(0,6), P(-4,0) and Q(0, -6). Determine whether
kirill [66]

Answer:

SQUARE

Step-by-step explanation:

If Quadrilateral MNPQ has vertices M(4,0), N(0,6), P(-4,0) and Q(0, -6).

Find the following MN,  NP, PQ and MQ

Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points

MN = √(6-0)²+(0-4)²

MN = √6²+4²

MN = √36+16

MN = √52

MN = 2√13

NP = √(0-6)²+(-4-0)²

NP = √6²+4²

NP = √36+16

NP = √52

NP = 2√13

PQ = √(-6-0)²+(0-(-4))²

PQ = √6²+4²

PQ = √36+16

PQ = √52

PQ = 2√13

MQ = √(-6-0)²+(0-4)²

MQ = √6²+4²

MQ = √36+16

MQ= √52

MQ = 2√13

Since the length of all the sides are equal, hence the shape is a SQUARE
