Answer:
x = 3.33... or 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x - 4) = 8
distribute the 3 into the parentheses
3 • 2x = 6x
3 • -4 = -12
6x - 12 = 8
add 12 to both sides
6x = 20
divide both sides by 6
x = 3.33... or 10/3
Answer: The weight of the box is 0.2 pounds and the weight of the chocolates before any chocolates were taken out is 2 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the weight of the box only.
The weight of the box of chocolates is 2.2 pounds. It means that the weight of the chocolate only is
(2.2 - x) pounds
After taking out 75% of the chocolates, the remaining chocolates and the box weigh 0.7 pounds. It means that
2.2 - 0.75(2.2 - x) = 0.7
2.2 - 1.65 + 0.75x = 0.7
0.75x = 0.7 + 1.65 - 2.2
0.75x = 0.15
x = 0.15/0.75
x = 0.2 pounds
The weight of the chocolates before any chocolates were taken out is
2.2 - x = 2.2 - 0.2 = 2 pounds
Depends on the measures of triangle EFG
We will count number of squares
first term is 4
so, 
second term is 7
so, 
third term is 10
so, 
We can see that this sequence is in arithematic sequence
we can use nth term formula

where
an is nth terms
a1 is first term
d is common difference
n is total number of terms

now, we can plug values
and we get



.................Answer
The common factors are -
-1
-2
-4
