(X x 6) = (X x 8) -4

Ps. Make sure yoi dont times the (X x 8) by -4 the -4 is by itself.

I personally found it easier thinking if there is a difference of 4 between 6 x X and 8x X then it must be 2x2 as the difference between 6 and 8 is 2. therefore 4 divided by 2 = 2 and 2 x 2 = 4

Therefore x = 2

Answer:

The inequation 6x ≥ 8x - 4 can be used to find the solution.

The solution is x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, 'at least' represents greater or equal than (which is the inequation simbol ≥)

If x represents the number then six times a number is the multiplication of x by 6, and four less than eight times the number can be written as: 8x -4

6x ≥ 8x - 4

Solving the inequation;

Substracting 6x each side:

0 ≥ 8x - 6x -4

Suming 4 each side

4 ≥ 2x

Dividing by 2 each side

2 ≥ x

2 greater or equal than x is the same as:

x ≤ 2

Find the GCF from the two numbers and rewrite the sum using nthe distributive property
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The greatest common factor is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest common factor is 6. If you use the distributive property then the answer would be 6(4) + 6(6) or 6(4+6). Then you distribute the 6 to each digit and should get 24+36.

An integer is three more than another integer. Twice the larger integer is two less
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The integers are 4 and 7 or -2 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make a system of equations with the description of the two integers.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2x + 2 = y^2

The simplest and the fastest way to solve this system in this case is substitution. You can substitute x for y + 3 in the second equation.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2(y + 3) + 2 = y^2

Now simplify and solve the second one. For convenience, I will just disregard the first equation for now.

2y + 6 + 2 = y^2

y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0

You can factor this equation to solve for y.

(y - 4) (y + 2) = 0

y = 4, y = -2

Now we can substitute the value of y for x in the first equation.

x = 7, x = 1
