4 times a number is 44 less than 6 times the number. Find the number.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]2 years ago

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 6x-44

1. Set x as the number we want to find.

2. Multiply by four (this makes one side of the equation)

3. "Is" tells us that 4x will be set equal to another expression.

4. The expression "6 times the number" tells us that we need to multiply 6 by x: 6x.

5. We now must account for the "44 less than 6 times the number", less than indicates subtraction. We are told that 44 fewer units than 6x will define this function.

6. 6x-44

7. Now set 4x=6x-44 (this goes back to step 3)

8. Use algebra to solve, first we want to isolate x, so subtract 6x on both sides.

9. -2x=-44  Now divide by -2 on both sides.

10. You reach an answer of x=22.

To find the perimeter, we must add together the length of each side.

The tick mark on the lines means they are equal, so that means we have two lines that are equal to 10

26 + 10 + 35 + 5 + 10 + (38 - 10) = 114"

Jordan fills several bags with oranges. This line plot shows the weight of each bag.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The heaviest bag weighs 4 pounds, and the lightest bag weighs 1 1/2.

4 can be converted to 8/2 and 1 1/2 can be converted to 3/2.

8/2-3/2=5/2.

5/2 converts to 2 and 1/2 or 2.5

HELP AGAIN PLEASE I TRIED IT ON MY OWN AND FAILED :(
Alex787 [66]

Answer:  ∠ J = 62° , ∠ K = 59° , ∠ L = 59°

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that it is an Isosceles Triangle, where L J ≅ K J

It follows that ∠ K ≅ ∠ L

         ⇒ 5x + 24 = 4x + 31

         ⇒   x + 24 =         31

         ⇒   x         =           7

Input the x-value into either equation to solve for  ∠ K &  ∠ L:

∠ K = 5x + 24

      = 5(7) + 24

      = 35 + 24

       = 59

∠ K ≅ ∠ L  ⇒   ∠ L = 59

Next, find the value of  ∠ J:

∠ J +  ∠ K +  ∠ L = 180    Triangle Sum Theorem

∠ J  +   59  +  59 = 180

∠ J          + 118     = 180

∠ J                       = 62

The two largest lizards in the united states are the gila monster and the chuckwalla. The average gila monster is 0.608 meter lo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Gila Monster is 1.54 times that of Chuckwalla.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average Length of Gila Monster = 0.608 m

Average Length of Chuckwalla = 0.395 m

We need to find the number of times the Gila monster is as the Chuckwalla.

Solution:

Now we know that;

To find the number of times the Gila monster is as the Chuckwalla we will divide the Average Length of Gila Monster by Average Length of Chuckwalla.

framing in equation form we get;

number of times the Gila monster is as the Chuckwalla = \frac{0.608}{0.395} = 1.5392

Rounding to nearest hundredth's we get;

number of times the Gila monster is as the Chuckwalla = 1.54

Hence Gila Monster is 1.54 times that of Chuckwalla.
