Answer:

-22/3 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x-4) /(x+4) = 10

Multiply each side by (x+4)

(4x-4) /(x+4) * (x+4) = 10 * (x+4)

(4x-4) = 10 * (x+4)

Distribute

4x-4 = 10x+40

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4-4x = 10-4x+40

-4 = 6x+40

subtract 40 from each side

-4 -40 = 6x+40-40

-44 = 6x

Divide each side by 6

-44/6 = -6x/6

-22/3 =x

last night, julie's pet hamster zoe kept julie awake for at least an hour running on her exercise wheel and scratching at the co

borishaifa [10]

Answer: $x+y\geq 1$ , $x>\frac{1}{4}$ , $x\geq 2y$ and $y\geq 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of hours Zoe spent running on her wheel and y represents the number of hours spent scratching her cage.

Julie was awoke for at least an hour running on her exercise wheel and scratching the of her cage.

⇒ $x+y\geq 1$

She ran on her wheel at least twice as long as she scratched at the corners of her cage.

⇒ $x\geq 2y$

Also, She spent more than 1/4 hour running on her wheel.

⇒ $x>\frac{1}{4}$

And, we know that number of hours can not be negative.

⇒ $y\geq 0$

Therefore, the complete system of inequality which shows the given situation is,

$x+y\geq 1$ , $x>\frac{1}{4}$ and $x\geq 2y$ , $y\geq 0$

Note: the feasible region ( covered by the given system) is shown in the below graph.

A paper drinking cup in the shape of a cone has a height

zhenek [66]

Answer:

I am pretty sure it is 53cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

If it were in a cylinder shape 10 x 8 is 80 but is is in the shape of a cone so the volume lessens so it can't be 80cm or 160cm. 27cm is a bit to low so that is why I am 90% sure it is 53cm.
