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

Mathematics

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

Which value can be added to the set below without changing its mean?
shusha [124]

Answer:

15..

Step-by-step explanation:

4, 10, 14, 18, 22, 22

Mean = (4 + 10 + 14 + 18 + 22 + 22)/6

= 90/6

= 15.

Number to be added, 'y'

For the mean to be the same

(90 + y) / 7 = 15

90 + y = 15 × 7

90 + y = 105

y = 105 - 90

= 15

Shalnov [3]

Answer:x^2+2x+3

So you can pull out 2x^2 from all of the polynomials...

And this equation isn’t able to be simplified anymore. Hope this helps!

-5(x - 1) greater than -40
sergey [27]

Answer:

x < 9  

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing this entirely with symbols, we get:

-5(x - 1) > -40

We must solve for x.  

Carrying out the multiplication, we get:

-5x + 5 > -40, or

-5x > -45

Dividing both sides by -5 isolates x:

x < 9  

Note that when working with an inequality such as this one, dividing both sides by a negative number requires changing the direction of the inequality symbol.
