Answer:

Let that number be 'x'

Now first part of the question tells us that 8 less than twice a number which is"x".

so twice a number would be 2x

then 8 less than would 2x-8

and the given result of the equation is 14

so the equation iis 2x-8=14

2x=14+8

2x=22

x=22/2

x=11 So the number is 11

Solve for r. Show your work!<br> 12 =R– (34 – 2)<br><br> Helpppp!!
amm1812

Answer:

r = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

12 = r - (34 - 2)

Solve for r

___________

To solve, we need to isolate r.

Distribute the negative sign with the numbers within the parenthesis :

12 = r - 34 + 2

Add like terms :

12 = r - 32

Add 32 to both sides :

44 = r

r = 44

Which of the following sets of inequalities​
Ludmilka [50]

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. The correct options are 2 and 3.

<h3>What are inequalities?</h3>

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed. It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

The inequality for the red portion is,

slope, m = (-2/-4) = 1/2

y-intercept is 2.

y ≤ (1/2)x + 2

The inequality for the blue portion is,
slope, m = (5-0)/(3-0.5) = 2

y-intercept is -1.

y > 2x - 1

Hence, the correct options are 2 and 3.

The perimeter of the triangle shown is 412 meters. Find the length of each side.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

x meters= 35

5x meters= 175

6x - 8 = 202

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5x + (6x - 8)= 412

12x - 8= 412

12x = 412 + 8

12x = 420

x= 35

5x = 35× 5

= 175

6x - 8= 6(35) - 8

= 210 - 8

= 202

Which description does NOT guarantee that a trapezoid is isosceles?
babunello [35]

A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if

(1) The base angles are congruent

(2) The diagonals are congruent

(3) The opposite angles are supplementary

So the description does not guarantee that a trapezoid is isoceles for "Congruent bases".
