Solve for x: 2x - 2 > 4x + 6

Mathematics
1 answer:
laiz [17]3 years ago
7 0

Isolate the x. Subtract 4x from both sides, and add 2 to both sides

2x (-4x) - 2 (+2) > 4x (-4x) + 6 (+2)

2x - 4x > 6 + 2

Simplify. Combine like terms

-2x > 8

Isolate the x. Divide -2 from both sides. Note that you are <em>dividing a negative number</em>. When doing so, flip the sign.

-2x/-2 > 8/-2

x > 8/-2

x < -4

x < -4, or (1) is your answer

hope this helps

A dog weighs 64 pounds, he eats 3/4 cup of food twice a day. his food contains 429 kcal/cup and 6.5grams protein per 100 kcal of
NeX [460]

Answer:

the dogs daily energy intake is 643.5 kcal

and, the dogs daily protein intake is 41.8275 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Food taken per day = 2 × \frac{\textup{3}}{\textup{4}}  cup = 1.5 cup

Amount of calories in a cup = 429 kcal/cup

Amount of protein = 6.5 grams per 100 kcal of energy

now,

The total amount of calories taken per day

= Number of cups of food × Amount of calories in a cup

= 1.5 × 429

= 643.5 kcal

also,

100 kcal of energy = 6.5 grams protein

thus,

1 kcal of energy = 0.065 grams protein

therefore,

643.5 kcal of energy = 0.065 × 643.5 grams protein

or

643.5 kcal of energy = 41.8275 grams of proteins

Hence,

the dogs daily energy intake is 643.5 kcal

and, the dogs daily protein intake is 41.8275 grams

A train leaves at 14.54 and arrives at its destination at 15.47. If the train travelled 66 km, what was it's average speed in km
JulijaS [17]

Answer: average speed of the train = 4,483.0 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance / Time

Distance = 66 km

Time = 15.47  cancelling 15, we have 60 sec added to 47 sec

         <u> - 14.54</u>

=         14.   107    60 + 47

         <u> - 14.  54</u>

<u>                     53secs</u>

53secs to hours becomes =

60 secs = 1 min

60 min= i hour

therefore 53seconds =53/3600=0.0147222hours

Speed= 66/ 0.0147222= 4,483.025

Rounding to 1 dp becomes= 4,483.0 km/h

CAN SOMEONE HELP PLZ AND EXPLAIN BEC IF DONT DO GOOD I CANT GO TO MY DADS HOUSE THIS WEEK END
Galina-37 [17]
Hello!

6.
Since the area is that of a square, you know that all side lengths are the same. 

Area is base times height (A = bh), but since base and height are the same for a square, you get the formula A = a².

A = a^{2}
144 = a^{2}
\sqrt{144} = a
12 = a

The length of the side of a square with an area of 144 in² is 12 in.

7.
Rational number.

8.
This is a right triangle; use the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing lengths of right triangles. Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Plug in your leg lengths:

a² + b² = c²
8² + x² = 21²
64 + x² = 441
x² = 377
x = 19.4
