eight more than twice a number is less than twenty (what is the expression)
2x+8 <20
Answer:
a. 2x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Four more than twice a number
Let x = unknown number
Four more than twice of x
Twice of x can be written as 2x
Four more than 2x
Four more can be written as + 4
We get 2x + 4
Answer: multiply
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
24mm
Step-by-step explanation:
since it's a similar triangle, we solve;
EH/EG=DH/DG
EH=56mm;
EG=44.8mm;
DH=35mm;
DG=X+4.
Fix them,
56/44.8=35/x+4
cross multiply
56(x+4)=35×44.8
56x+224=1,568
collect the like term
56x=1,344
divide via by 56
56x/56=1344/56
x=24mm
Check/ verify
EH/EG=DH/DG
56/44.8=35/24+4
56/44.8=35/28
CROSS MULTIPLY OVER THE EQUAL SIGN.
56×28=35×44.8
1,568=1,568
THAT'S CORRECT.
