Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 x = -2

You want the value of x. x is being multiplied by 1/4. To get x alone on the left side, you need to divide both sides by 1/4. Dividing by 1/4 is the same as multiplying by 4.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.

4 * 1/4 x = -2 * 4

4 * 1/4 = 1, so on the left side you get 1x which is just x.

x = 8

Answer: -8

At what corridnate point do y= 1/2 x + 4 and x + 4y = 4 intersect.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

(-4;2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. if y=1/2 x+4, then 2y=x+8; it is possible to re-write as x-2y+8=0;

2. if x+4y=4, it is possible to re-write it as x+4y-4=0;

3. if x-2y+8=0 and x+4y-4=0, then x-2y+8=x+4y-4; ⇒ -2y+8=4y-4; ⇒ 6y=12; ⇔ y=2.

4. if y=2, then it is possible to substitute its value into any equation given in the condition:

x+4y=4 (substitution y=2); ⇒ x+8=4; ⇒ x= -4.

5. finally x= -4; y=2. It means (-4;2)

PS. the suggested solution is not the only way to resolve this task.

You have some candies in your pocket. A friend gives you five more candies. When you count all your candies you have 14
defon

Answer:

9 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

You are required to find the number of candies in your pocket

Let

x = number of candies in your pocket

A friend gives you five more candies.

Total candies = 14

This can be represented by the equation:

Total candies = candies in your pocket + candies your friend gave you

14 = x + 5

14 - 5 = x

9 = x

x = 9 candies

x = number of candies in your pocket = 9

A rectangle is divided into 15 identical squares arranged in three rows. What is the perimeter of the rectangle, in centimeters,
lozanna [386]

Answer:

48 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are concerned with finding the perimeter of the rectangle.

Now, since the square has an area of 9 cm^2, it means that the squares has a side of 3 cm each since the area of a square is s^2

So now, there are 5 squares in a row, meaning in a straight stretch , left to right or right to left, there are 15 squares. So the total length here is 5 * 3 = 15 cm

Now, moving column-wise, from top to bottom, since we have 3 rows, what this means is that per column of the rows, there are 3 squares. So the total length here becomes 3 * 3 = 9 cm

So we have a rectangle 9cm by 15cm

The perimeter is thus 2(L + B) = 2(15 + 9) = 2(24) = 48 cm
