Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the Number

To find the number, we have to translate the problem above to an algebraic equation. The algebraic equation refers to the statement of the equality of two algebraic expressions.

Equation:

Let "x" be the number.

4 is divided by a number - 4/x

3 divided by the number decreased by 2 - 3/x-2

"4 is divided by a number is equal to 3 divided by the number decreased by 2"

4/x = 3/x-2

Solution:

Cross multiply.

4/x = 3/x-2

x(3) = 4(x-2)

3x = 4x - 8

(Combine similar terms.)

3x - 4x = - 8

- x = - 8

- x/- 1 = - 8/- 1

x = 8

Final Answer:

8

Checking:

4/x = 3/x-2

4/8 = 3/8-2

1/2 = 3/6

1/2 = 1/2 ✔

Regular quadrilateral pyramid with base edge b=55 mm and lateral edge l = 7cm. Find the sum of all edges
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

50cm or 500mm

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 base edges and 4 lateral edges, therefore, multiply the number for both edges by 4 and add.

Considering the fact that we were given two units of measurement, millimeters and centimeters, but we know that there are 10mm (millimeters) in a cm (centimeter) , we can just divide 55 by 10 to get 5.5.

¦

Therefore;

5.5 x 4 = 22

7 x 4 = 28

28 + 22 = 50cm

The diagram can be drawn in order to assist in answering the question.

Mark makes $60 for every six hour shift he works. How much will he make if he works an eight hour shift
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Mark will make $80 if he works an eight-hour shift.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every six hour shift he works, Mark makes $60

This implies that for every hour, he makes $10 ($60/6)

Therefore, for working an eight-hour shift, Mark will make $80 ($10 * 8) or ($60/6 * 8).

We can conclude that Mark's employer pays him $10 per hour.

This hourly rate can be used to work out how much Mark will earn if he works for a month or a year, as the case may be.
