Answer:

x = 0 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

|x – 4| = 4 <-- separate it into 2 equations since it's an absolute value and there would be 2 answers (one number as positive and one number as negative)

--------------------------------------------------------

x – 4 = 4 <-- postive

+ 4 = + 4

x = 8

---------------------------------------------------------

x – 4 = - 4 <-- negative

+ 4 = + 4

x = 0

How do you find the greatest common denominator, when comparing two numbers? Explain your thought process, in the example I prov

maksim [4K]

Answer:

20 is the greatest common denominator. You can find this by listing the factors of each number. The highest number that can fit into both individual numbers is the common denominator. Since 40 is just 20 doubled, and 20 is just 20 once, it fits into both numbers and is also the highest number that can fit.

Theoretically, if a month is chosen 300 times,

horsena [70]

Answer:

75 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well there are 12 months and 3 of them start with the letter J, so theoretically, 25% of the months chosen will start with the letter J because $\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}$ , which is 25%. 25% of 300 (or $\frac{300}{4}$ , for those who like fractions) is 75, so theoretically, we can expect a month that starts with the letter J 75 times.
