Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 2/3 and 18. Since it a whole number, convert it to a fraction by putting it over a denominator of 1. When multiplying fractions, calculate numerator times numerator, then denominator times denominator. Multiply 2/3 x 18/1 to get 36/3.

Simplify the resulting fraction as needed by dividing it by the common denominator. The common denominator of 36 and 3 is 3. Diving 36 and 3 by 3 gives you a fraction of 12/1, which is the same as 12. Thus, two-thirds of 18 is 12.

$\frac{2}{3}*\frac{18}{1}$

$=\frac{36}{3}$

$=\frac{12}{1}$

$=12$

How many solutions does the equation - 8x + 5 = - 8x + 4 have

KiRa [710]

$- 8x + 5 = - 8x + 4 \\ - 8x = - 8x + 4 - 5 \\ - 8x = - 8x - 1 \\ 0 = - 1(false)$

we don't have solutions !!

The length of each side of a regular pentagon is increased by 8 inches, so the perimeter is now 65 inches. What is the original

evablogger [386]

Here as the Pentagon is regular so it's all sides will be of equal length . And if we assume It's each side be s , then it's perimeter is going to be (s+s+s+s+s) = 5s.And as here , each side is increased by 8 inches and then it's perimeter is 65 inches , so we got that it's side after increament is (s+8) inches and original length is s inches . And if it's each side is (s+8) inches , so it's perimeter will be 5(s+8) and as it's equal to 65 inches . So , 5(s+8) = 65

${:\implies \quad \sf 5(s+8)=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+5\times 8=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+40=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=65-40}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=25}$

${:\implies \quad \sf s=\dfrac{25}{5}=5}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{s=5\:\: Inches}}}$

As we assumed the original side to be s .

Hence, the original side's length 5 inches

Solve the inequality and graph the solution set on a number line. Express the solution set in both set-builder and interval not

shusha [124]

-8 < x -3 < 1
we have two inequations:
* -8<x-3 and -8+3<x-3+3 or -5 < x or x>-5
* x-3<1 or x-3+3<1+3 and we have x<4
For all cases we have -5<x<4
or interval notations: x∈(-5;4)
have fun
