(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

ICE Princess25 [194]

Shawndra is correct

 

She made two statements, and both are true:

 

1. It is not possible to draw a trapezoid that is a rectangle.

This is true because a trapezoid<span> is a quadrilateral that has exactly one pair of parallel sides, whereas a rectangle is a parallelogram (i.e. it has two pairs of parallel sides)</span>

 

2. It is possible to draw a square that is a rectangle.

This is true because a rectangle refers to any parallelogram with right angles. A square is also a parallelogram (has two pairs of opposite sides) with right angles. In fact, all squares are rectangles; only that they are a special kind of rectangle, where all the sides are equal in length.

Find f (0) and find x when f (x) =4
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
At x = 0, y-coordinate is at -4 so that means f(0) = -4

Now for f(x) = 4, we need to find any x-coordinates such that y-coordinates is 4.

There are two possible answer: x = -8 and x = 8

So x = -8, 8

Hope this helps.
