Answer:

$\LARGE{ \underline{\underline{ \sf{\pink{ Required\: answer:}}}}}$

6x + 2 ( x - 4) = 8 + 4 ( x + 2)

6x + 2x - 8 = 8 + 4x + 8

Arranging like terms 

6x + 2x - 4x = 8 +8 - 8

8x - 4x = 8

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

. The sum of -8 and a number is at least 9 what is the equation look like

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

-8 + x ≥ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at your sentence:

The sum of -8 and a number is at least 9 what is the equation look like

Sum is the result of adding

At least 9 means that the number is 9 or greater.

So what you have here is an inequality expression:

Sum of -8 and a number

-8 + x

x here is the "number" since we do not know the value we will use "x" to represent that number.

At least 9

At least means that it is equal or greater, so we use this expression ≥

and so we use put that all together

-8 + x ≥ 9

What is the sum of the geometric sequence-1,6,36 if there are 6 terms

Reptile [31]

Answer:

The sum is $9,331$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$1,6,36,...$

we have

$a1=1$

$a2=6$

$a3=36$

Find the common ratio r

$a2/a1=6/1=6$

$a3/a2=36/6=6$

The common ratio is r=6

The formula to calculate the sum in a geometric sequence is equal to

$S=a1\frac{(1-r^{n})}{(1-r)}$

where

n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

a1 is the first term

we have

$n=6$

$a1=1$

$r=6$

substitute

$S=(1)\frac{(1-(6)^{6})}{(1-6)}$

$S=\frac{(1-(6)^{6})}{(-5)}$

$S=9,331$

On a game show, a contestant randomly chooses a chip from a bag that contains numbers and stripes. The theoretical probability o

Lapatulllka [165]

*I'm going to assume you meant stripes.

Answer:

So in total there are 15 chips in the bag.

9 of them are stripes and 6 are numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are 9 stripes in the bag.

The probability of getting a stripe is 3/5

This means that for every 5 chips that the contestant pulls out, 3 of them should be stripes. This also means 2 of them are numbers.

So we know that 9 of the chips in the bag are stripes. To find the total number of stripes we should divide 9 by 3/5:

$\frac{9}{\frac{3}{5}} = 9 * \frac{5}{3}$

So we get:

$\frac{45}{3} = 15$
