Mathematics

Answer:

Option D.

<h3>Why is this the case, though?</h3>

These equations prove it true.

-4 * 2 - 8 = -16 > -20

-4 * 1 - 8 = -12 > -20

The only reason these two equations are correct, is because on the number line it shows: Any negative number further to the right than the last negative number is greater than that number.

Answer:

  • \boxed{\sf{D. \quad x < 3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

It is necessary to isolate the term of x from one side of an inequality to find its solution.

<h3>-4x-8>-20</h3>

<u>First, add by 8 from both sides.</u>

\sf{-4x-8+8 > -20+8}

<u>Solve.</u>

-20+8=-12

<u>Rewrite the problem down.</u>

\sf{-4x > -12}

<u>Multiply by -1 from both sides.</u>

(-4x)(-1)<(-12)(-1)

<u>Solve.</u>

<u>Multiply the numbers from left to right.</u>

(-12)(-1)=12

4x<12

<u>Divide by 4 from both sides.</u>

4x/4<12/4

<u>Solve.</u>


<u>Divide the numbers from left to right.</u>

12/4=3

<u>x<3</u>

  • <u>Therefore, the correct answer is D. x<3 (last option).</u>

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

I can only guess that you meant to write

12 + 3 = 3 + 12

which would be the commutative property of addition.

It is not 7 because 7 x 8 is 56, so that will be too big. 

  So, your answer is 6 with a remander of 4

Choose an equivalent expression for 123 • 129 • 124 • 122.<br> 124<br> 1218<br> 1235<br> 12216
mihalych1998 [28]

Question:

Choose an equivalent expression for 12^3 • 12^9 • 12^4 • 12^2

A. 12^4 B. 12^18 C. 12^35 D. 12^216

Answer:

12^{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

12^3 . 12^9 . 12^4 . 12^2

Required

Determine the equivalent

Applying law of indices, we have:

12^{3 + 9 + 4 + 2}

12^{18}

Hence:

12^3 . 12^9 . 12^4 . 12^2 = 12^{18
