6x - 2(x + 4) = 12    use distributive property

6x + (-2)(x) + (-2)(4) = 12

6x - 2x - 8 = 12      add 8 to both sides

4x = 20     divide both sides by 4

x = 5

To solve for x, we will begin by using the distributive property

6x - 2(x + 4) = 12

6x - 2x - 8 = 12

(always remember to sort your negatives!)

Add like terms 

4x - 8 = 12

Add 8 to both sides

4x = 20

Divide both sides by 4

x = 5

A regular hexagon is inscribed in a circle with a diameter of 8 inches.
love history [14]

Answer:

b) 41.6 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular hexagon is inscribed in a circle with a diameter of 8 inches.

Step 1

We find the radius

Radius = Diameter/2

= 8 inches/2 = 4 inches

a. What is the perimeter of the hexagon?

b. What is the area of the hexagon?

An hexagon has 6 sides

The number of angles in an hexagon is calculated as:

[(Number of sides - 2) x 180]

= (6 - 2) x 180 = 720 ÷ 6 = 120°

The hexagon into 6 equilateral triangles with 4 for each of its sides.

The area of one of the triangles:

Height = 2√3

- one triangle's area = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(4)(2√3) = 4√3

The area of the hexagon by multiplying the one triangle's area by 6:

6 x 4√3 = 24√3 square inches

= 41.569219382 square inches

Approximately = 41.6 square inches

Exercise 7.3.5 The following is a Markov (migration) matrix for three locations        1 5 1 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 1 5 2 5 2 5 2
fredd [130]

Answer:

Both get the same results that is,

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

\bf M=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]

and initial population,

\bf P=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\300\\70\end{array}\right]

a) - After two times, we will find in each position.

P_2=[P].[M]^2=[P].[M].[M]

M^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]\times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]

     =\frac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right]

\therefore\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;P_2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\300\\70\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]

b) - With in migration process, 500 people are numbered. There will be after a long time,

After\;inifinite\;period=[M]^n.[P]

Then,\;we\;get\;the\;same\;result\;if\;we\;measure [M]^n=\frac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right]

                                   =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]
