Answer:

a) 8 + x

b) x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

width = 6 in

length = 8 in

a)  extend length by x inches ⇒ length = 8 + x

b)  area of a rectangle = width x length

Given enlarged rectangle area = 78:

⇒ 6(8 + x) = 78

⇒ 48 + 6x = 78

⇒ 6x = 30

⇒ x = 5

Answer:

The answer to your question is -27/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide         3/5  ÷  - 4/9

Process

1.- Just multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.                                      

                    3 x - 9 = -27

2.- Multiply the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction.

                    5 x 4 = 20

3.- Join both results

                               -27/20

Please help i've been stuck on these for a bit now!

Answer:

Q6. D

Q8. A

Step-by-step explanation:

Q6. In 40 trials, he flipped '2 heads and 1 tail' 16 times.

For 2 heads, probability= 16/40= 4/10

For 120 trials, number of times= 4/10 × 120= 48

Q8.

125x + 200 \geqslant 1200 \\ 125x \geqslant 1200 - 200 \\ 125x \geqslant 1000 \\ x \geqslant 1000 \div 125 \\ x \geqslant 8

Answer is A because the inequality shows that x is equal or greater than 8 so the dot at 8 has to be coloured.

Note that we do not change the inequality sign unless we are dividing the whole thing by -1.
