10 = 3x – 8<br><br> what is this
Margaret [11]

Answer:

<u><em>Answer is below</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>10=3x-8</em></u>

<u><em>always remember to flip the equation</em></u>

<u><em>3x-8=10</em></u>

<u><em>Add 8 to both sides</em></u>

<u><em>3x-8(+8)=10(+8)</em></u>

<u><em>3x=18</em></u>

<u><em>Divide both sides by 3</em></u>

<u><em>3x/3=18/3</em></u>

<u><em>x=6</em></u>

Point b is the midpoint of ac-. if ab= 4x+2 and ac=10x-6, find the length of ac
Natasha2012 [34]

let's bear in mind that B is the midpoint and thus it cuts a segment into two equal halves.

\bf \underset{\leftarrow \qquad \textit{\large 10x-6}\qquad \to }{\boxed{A}\stackrel{4x+2}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}} B\stackrel{\underline{4x+2}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{C}}} \\\\\\ AC=AB+BC\implies 10x-6=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies 10x-6=8x+4 \\\\\\ 2x-6=4\implies 2x=10\implies x=\cfrac{10}{2}\implies x= 5 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ AC=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies AC=[4(5)+2]+[4(5)+2] \\\\\\ AC=22+22\implies AC=44

At leslie's school the ratio of boys and girls is 11 to 12 at marks school the ratio of boys girls is 41 to 48 if both schools h
Softa [21]

Answer: B. There are more boys at Mark's school than at Leslie's school because the ratio 41 to 48 is greater than the ratio 11 to 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the options:

A There are more boys at Mark's school than at Leslie's school because the ratio 11 to 12 is greater than the ratio 41 to 48.

B. There are more boys at Mark's school than at Leslie's school because the ratio 41 to 48 is greater than the ratio 11 to 12.

C. There are more boys at Leslie's school than at Mark's school because the ratio 41 to 48 is greater than the ratio 11 to 12.

At leslie's school the ratio of boys and girls is 11 to 12. This implies that the fraction of boys in the school to total students will be:

= 11/(11 + 12) = 11/23 = 0.4783

At Marks school the ratio of boys to girls is 41 to 48. Thus implies that the fraction of boys in the school to total students will be:

= 41 / (41 + 48) = 41/85= 0.4824

Based on the calculation, we can deduce that there are more boys at Mark's school than at Leslie's school because the ratio 41 to 48 is greater than the ratio 11 to 12.
