Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by x.

Two less than three times a number is the same as six more than twice the number. This will be:

(3 × x) - 2 = (2 × x) + 6

3x - 2 = 2x + 6

Collect like terms.

3x - 2x = 6 + 2

x = 8.

The number is 8

Answer:

C

HOWEVER: "Less Than" is usually depicted as a dashed line at the border. and there MUST be an OR between these two equations to include all of the blue area. An "and" there would exclude the area between the edge lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y < 10

       y < -2x + 10

3x + 2y < 12

       2y < -3x + 12

         y < -1.5x + 6

Answer:

  64/49

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

  a^0 = 1

_____

Using these rules, we can simplify the given expression to ...

  \left(\dfrac{8\cdot 4\cdot 2}{8\cdot 7}\right)^2\times\left(\dfrac{8^0}{7^{-3}}\right)^3\times 7^{-9}\\\\=\dfrac{8^2}{7^2}\times(8^{0\cdot 3}\cdot 7^{3\cdot 3})\times 7^{-9}\\\\=\dfrac{64}{49}\times(8^07^{9-9})=\boxed{\dfrac{64}{49}}
