The value 12 is a good counterexample. It is divisible by 4 (since 12/4 = 3 is a whole number with no remainders or decimal portions) but 12 is not divisible by 8 (note how 12/8 = 1 remainder 4 = 1.5)

To find other examples, add 8 to 12 to get 20. Then add on 8 more to get 28. This pattern continues on forever.

Teresa went skydiving. Teresa's height (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds) is graphed.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

choose B.  54 meters/second,  it is closest to  my calculation of 55 meters/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

To find average speed between 3 and 8 seconds, find the total distance traveled during that time.

650 meters at 3 seconds

to 375 meters at 8 seconds

then average speed =  ( 650 - 375 ) / (8  - 3) = 275 /5  = 55 meters /sec

HELP!!
Lesechka [4]

Answer: Choice C

x < -2 \text{ or } x \ge 4

==========================================

Reason:

The portion on the left represents x < -2 because of the open circle at -2 and shading pointing to the left. This represents all numbers smaller than -2.

The portion on the right represents all values that are 4 or larger; hence x \ge 4. Note the use of a closed circle at 4 to include this value.

We connect those two inequalities with the keyword "or" because x can only pick one of those options, but not both at the same time.

Twice the difference of a number and 6 is equal to three times te sum of the number and 4. Find the number.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer: -24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x , therefore ; The difference between the number and 6 implies x - 6

Also , twice their difference implies 2 ( x - 6 )

The sum of the number and 4 implies : x + 4

three times their sum implies : 3 ( x + 4 )

Combining all together , we have

2 ( x - 6 ) = 3 ( x + 4 )

Expanding , we have

2x - 12 = 3x + 12

collecting the like terms , we have

2x - 3x = 12 + 12

-x = 24

multiply through by -, we have

x = -24

Check :

2 ( x - 6 ) will give

2 ( -24 - 6 )

= 2 (-30)

= -60

3 ( x+4) will give

3 ( -24 + 4 )

= 3 ( -20)

= -60

Therefore:

2( x- 6 ) = 3 ( x + 4 )
