Eight less than four times the number c is twenty. What is the value of c?

Answer:

c=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says that 8 less than 4 times c is less than twenty, so we can first show 8 less than 20.

4c -( I did this because it said 4 times the number c)

Then, we show 8 less than that.

4c-8

It says it is twenty, and that means it equals twenty.

4c-8=20

Now we solve!

4c-8=20

   +8  +8

*we add 8 to both sides*

4c=28

*we divide both sides by 4 since we want to isolate c*

c=28/4

c=7

I hope this helped!

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

because 8 less than 4

= 4 - 8

= -4

and if -4 x c = 20 then...

c= 20÷ - 4

= -5

so c= -5

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

16 hours and 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Rita's family is moving to Grand Junction to Dallas, which is 980 miles. The moving van averages 60 miles each hour. About how many hours does the van take to reach Dallas?

To find the time taken by van to reach Dallas, we will divide total distance by speed.

\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}

\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{980\text{ Miles}}{60\frac{\text{ Miles}}{\text{Hour}}}

\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{980\text{ Miles}}{60}\times \frac{\text{ Hour}}{\text{Miles}}

\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{98}{6}\text{ Hour}

\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=16.3333\text{ Hour}

Let us convert 0.3333 hours into minutes by multiplying 0.3333 by 60.

0.3333\times 60=19.998\approx 20

Therefore, it will take 16 hours and 20 minutes for the van to reach Dallas.

Can somebody please help me?

 <span>for the first part, realize that the hour and minute hands are moving at different rates; in one hour, the minute hands moves all the way around the face of the clock, and thus moves a total of 360 degrees or 2 pi radians; the hour hand moves only 1/12 away around the clock, so covers only 30 degrees or Pi/6 radians. 

Now, the LINEAR distance traveled by the tip of each hand is also determined by the length of the hand. In the case of the minute hand, it sweeps out a circle of radius 10 cm, so traces out a circle of radius 10 cm. Since the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r, the minute hand (remember it made one complete cycle) covers a distance of 2*pi*10cm=20 Pi cm 

The hour hand covers only 1/12 a circle, but that circle is only 6 cm in radius, so the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand is: 

1/12 *[2 *pi*r]=1/12*[12*pi]=pi 

so the difference is 19pi 

for the last part, you should draw a diagram of the two hands, the minute hand is 10 cm in length, the hour hand is 6 cm in length, and they are 30 degrees apart...from that drawing, see if you can figure out the remaining leg of the triangle you can form from them 

good luck</span><span>

Find the slope of the line that passes through (4, 6) and (2, 3).
Verizon [17]
The slope is 3/2

To find the slope, you have to use the slope formula

y2-y1/x2-x1

6-3/4-2

3/2

So the slope is 3/2

Ella Buys a book and a pen for $14. The cost of the book is two dollars more than twice the cost of the pen. Write a system of l
Vilka [71]

Answer: The book costs $10 and the pen costs $4✔️

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B the cost of the book and let P the cost of the pen.

Then we know:

The book and the pen cost $14:

B + P = $14 } Equation 1  

We also know:  

The cost of the book is two dollars more than twice the cost of the pen.

B = 2P + $2 } Equation 2  

Now we can substitute the value of B from the equation 2 in the equation 1:

2P + $2 + P = $14

3P = $14 - $2 = $12

P = $12/3 = $4 , cost of the pen

Since we know the value of B from the equation 2, we can calculate B:

B = 2P + $2 = 2x$4 + $2 = $8 + $2 = $10 , cost of the book

Answer: The book costs $10 and the pen costs $4✔️

<h3>Verify </h3>

We can substitute these values in equations 1 and 2 and check the results:

B + P = $14 } Equation 1

$10 + $4 = $14 ✔️check!

B = 2P + $2 } Equation 2  

$10 = 2x$4 + $2 = $8 + $2 = $10 ✔️check!
