Answer:

2x+12 = 20

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number = 2x

increased by 12 = +12

Format:

2x + 12 = 20

Solve

Subtract 12 from both sides

2x + 12 - 12 = 20 - 12

2x = 8

divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 8/2

x = 4

Drupady [299]

Answer:

1. An Experimental

2. Dependent

3. Independent

Considering the description of how the research was carried out, it can be concluded that This study is an example of AN EXPERIMENTAL study. This because the researcher is trying to study the effectiveness of a new drug for lowering cholesterol

The difference in cholesterol level is the DEPENDENT variable. This is because the difference in cholesterol level is what the researcher wants to determine.

The treatment with a drug or placebo is the INDEPENDENT variable. This is because this is what the researcher manipulates to determine the difference in cholesterol level which is the dependent variable in this experimental study.

If we are given the value of α. How can we find the value of β?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

β = 140   - α

we know that the "missing" angle is 40° since 40 + 140 = 180

we also know that the total sum of angles in a triangle is 180

so  β = 180 - 40 - α

or β = 140   - α

Solve the equation.<br> 8 -(x + 5) = 5x - 3
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

8 -(x+5) = 5x - 3

-(x+5)  --->   -1 (x +5) = -x - 5

8 - x - 5 = 5x -3            8 - 5 = 3

-x + 3 = 5x - 3

+x         +x

3 = 6x - 3

+3       +3

6 = 6x

/6   /6

<u>x = 1</u>
