Answer:

x=\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{We're given the following:}\\-4(3x-2)=6x+2\\\\\text{First, let's distribute the -4:}\\-12x+8=6x+2\\+12x\qquad+12x\\\\\text{That gives us:}\\8=18x+2\\-2\qquad-2\\6=18x\\\\\text{Now divide both sides by 18:}\\\frac{6}{18}=x\\\\\text{And simplify the fraction:}\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x − 2) = 6x + 2

Distribute

-12x +8 = 6x +2

Add 12x to each side

12x-12x+8 = 6x+2+12x

8 = 18x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

8-2 = 18x+2-2

6 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

6/18 = 18x/18

1/3 =x

What is the effect on the volume of a sphere if the radius is divided by 3?
Neko [114]

For this case we have by definition, that the volume of a sphere is given by:

V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * r ^ 3

Where:

r: It is the radius of the sphere

If the radius is divided by 3 we have:

\frac {r} {3}:

V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * (\frac {r} {3}) ^ 3\\V = \frac {4} {3} \pi * \frac {r ^ 3} {27}\\V = \frac {4} {81} \pi * r ^ 3

ANswer:

the volume decreases considerably because the denominator increases

Someone help me solve this expression please
Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we have to remember PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiply / Divide, Add or Subtract).

Here, the curly brackets act as parenthesis, so we solve that first.

• 3 + 7 = 10

Then, we multiply by 4.

• 10 • 4 = 40

Finally, we add 6 to 40.

• 40 + 6 = 46.

Our final answer: 46
