7x - 8 = 8 + 3x
7x - 3x = 8 + 8
4x = 16
x = 16/4
x = 4

Hi there! To solve this problem, first, we need to combine like terms. When you do, you should get 7x - 8 = 8 + 3x. Now, subtract 3x from both sides to get the whole number on the right by itself. When you do, you get 4x - 8 = 8. Now, add 8 to both sides to get 4x on its side alone and you get 4x = 16. Now, divide each side by 4 to isolate the “x”. 16/4 is 4. There. x = 4.

Why is the inequality x≤6 equivalent to the inequality x−5≤6−5

Monica [59]

Two inequalities are equivalent if they have the same set of solutions.

x - 5 ≤ 6 - 5

x - 5 ≤ 1 |add 5 to both sides

x ≤ 6

Please help I need to know the rule in correspondence to the pattern?

trasher [3.6K]

You can see that an odd number of steps is simply multiplying the number of steps by a number that moves up one each time. For instance, 1*1, 3*2, 5*3, etc. It's a bit harder with the even numbers. Their pattern is multiplying half the number of steps by 1.5, but the ones place value moves up a number each time, for example, 2*1.5, 4*2.5, 6*3.5. This means that 10 steps is 10 * 5.5, or 55 blocks and that 100 is 5,050 steps.

AD is a diameter of a circle and AB is a chord. If AD=34cm, AB=30cm, the distance of AB from the centre of the circle is :

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The distance is 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The chord and the diameter form one leg and the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The other leg, BD, has length ...

BD² +AB² = AD²

BD² = AD² -AB² = 34² -30² = 256

BD = √256 = 16

The segment from the center of the circle to the midpoint of the chord is the midline of triangle ABD, so is half the length of BD.

distance from AB to the center = 16/2 = 8 . . . cm

Use the Counting Principle to find the probability. Choosing the 7 winning lottery numbers when the numbers are chosen at random

frozen [14]

Answer: 120

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since the order of the numbers doesn't matter we can use the formula:

$\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\quad \text{where n is the quantity of items and r is the quantity chosen}\\\\\text{In this problem, there are 10 numbers (n = 10) and 7 to be chosen (r = 7)}\\\\_{10}C_{7}=\dfrac{10!}{7!(10-7)!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10!}{7!3!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{7!\times 3\times 2\times 1}\\\\.\qquad=10\times 3\times 4\\\\.\qquad=120$
