Answer:

John and Mike are correct, Henry is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to find x = 4 for all the equations to find out who is correct.

John:

4x + 4 + 7x = 48

Combine like terms.

11x + 4 = 48

Subtract 4 from both sides.

11x = 44

Divide both sides by 11.

x = 4

John is correct.

Mike:

2x + 3 = 11

Subtract 3 from both sides.

2x = 8

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 4

Mike is correct.

Henry:

8x + 7 = 71

Subtract 7 from both sides.

8x = 64

Divide both sides by 8.

x = 8

Henry is incorrect.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

To change a mixed number to an improper fraction

Multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add the numerator. This value is the numerator of the improper fraction while the denominator remains unchanged, that is

(2 × 13) + 12 = 26 + 12 = 38 ← numerator

2 $\frac{12}{13}$ = $\frac{38}{13}$

(b)

To change an improper fraction to a mixed number

divide the numerator by the denominator, noting the remainder, which forms the numerator of the fraction in the mixed number.

$\frac{47}{19}$ = 2 remainder 9, hence

$\frac{47}{19}$ = 2 $\frac{9}{19}$

Answer:

2) ∠ACE ≅ ∠BCE

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the complete question attached in Figure below, geometry shows that ∠ACB is bisected into two angles ∠ACE and ∠BCE and we know that bisection means to divide an angle into two equal angles. According to this the resultant angles ∠ACE and ∠BCE must be equal and congruent.

A n =−1+3(n−1) an=−1+3(n−1) what is the 55 term in the sequence

Sindrei [870]

ANSWER

$a_{55}=161$

EXPLANATION

The general term for the sequence is

$a_n=-1+3(n-1)$

To find the 55th term, we have to substitute
$n = 55$
in to the general term and simplify.

This implies that,

$a_{55}=-1+3(55-1)$

$a_{55}=-1+3(54)$

$a_{55}=-1+162$

$a_{55}=161$

Therefore the 55th term is 161.
