Find the value of x when 6-4x = 6x-8x-2.
mestny [16]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6−4x=6x−8x−2

6+−4x=6x+−8x+−2

−4x+6=(6x+−8x)+(−2)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+6=−2x+−2

−4x+6=−2x−2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−4x+6+2x=−2x−2+2x

−2x+6=−2

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−2x+6−6=−2−6

−2x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=−8−2

x=4

In a bag of candy, Marsha found that there were 7 red, 8 blue, 5 yellow, and 9 greens pieces of candy. Marsha put all of the pie
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the total candies

7 + 8 + 5 + 9 = 29

2) a probability can be expressed with a fraction whose denominator is the total candies, while the numerator represents the candies that we want to find

- red = 7/29

- blue = 8/29

- yellow = 5/29

- green = 9/29

3) compound probability

(red + blue)/29 = 15/29

(yellow + green)/29 = 14/29

(blue + yellow + green)/29 = 22/29

uppose we want to build a rectangular storage container with open top whose volume is $$ cubic meters. Assume that the cost of m
Ainat [17]

Answer:

a = length of the base = 2.172 m

b = width of the base = 1.357 m

c = height = 4.072 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we want to build a rectangular storage container with open top whose volume is 12 cubic meters. Assume that the cost of materials for the base is 12 dollars per square meter, and the cost of materials for the sides is 8 dollars per square meter. The height of the box is three times the width of the base. What’s the least amount of money we can spend to build such a container?

lets call a = length of the base

b = width of the base

c = height

V = a.b.c = 12

Area without the top:

Area = ab + 2bc + 2ac

Cost  = 12ab + 8.2bc + 8.2ac

Cost = 12ab + 16bc + 16ac

height = 3.width

c = 3b

Cost = 12ab + 16b.3b + 16a.3b = 12ab + 48b² + 48ab = 48b² + 60ab

abc = 12 → ab.3b = 12 → 3ab² = 12 → ab² = 4 → a = 4/b²

Cost = 48b² + 60ab = 48b² + 60b.4/b² = 48b² + 240/b

C(b) = 48b² + 240/b

C'(b) = 96b - 240/b²

Minimum cost: C'(b) = 0

96b - 240/b² = 0

(96b³ - 240)/b² = 0

96b³ - 240 = 0

96b³ = 240

b³ = 240/96

b³ = 2.5

b = 1.357m

c = 3b = 3*1.357 = 4.072m

a = 4/b² = 2.172m

A=(1/2)bh Solve the formula for h. Please show the steps of how you got the answer!
Flauer [41]
A = 1/2bh...for h
multiply both sides by 2
2A = bh
now divide both sides by b
(2a)/b = h
