3x-4=8 what does X equal to?

Answers

Answer 1

Hey there,

Solve the equation:

Answer :

x = 4 ✅

Explanations :

3x - 4 = 8

>> Add 4 to both sides :

3x - 4 + 4 = 8 + 4

3x = 12

>> Divide both sides by 3 :

3x/3 = 12/3

Therefore, your answer is x = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

3x - 4 = 8

To determine the value of "x", we need to isolate the "x" variable and it's coefficient. This can be done by adding 4 to both sides of the equation.

⇒ 3x - 4 + 4 = 8 + 4⇒ 3x = 12

The next step in determining the "x" variable is to isolate the coefficient from the "x" variable. This can be done by dividing 3 both sides of the equation.

⇒ 3x/3 = 12/3⇒ x = 4

Therefore, the solution (x) is 4.

what is an area of a trapezoid

Answers

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

Required area= Area of rectangle +2×(Area of Triangle)

=(10×8)+2×(1/2×8×8)

=80+64=144 in²

Answer:

144 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the area of a trapezoid divided into a parallelogram (in this case a rectangle) and two triangles, you calculate the area of each part and add it together.

the area of a triangle = (base • height) / 2

the area of a parallelogram = (base • height)

so:

1. Calculate area of first triangle. 8 • 8 = 64, 64/2 is 32

2. Calculate the area of the second triangle. Since in this situation you have two equal triangles, you multiply the answer to the first part by 2 and get 64 in² again.

3. Calculate the area of the rectangle. 8 • 10 = 80 in²

4. Add the two numbers together. 80 + 64 = 144 in²

Hey there!

Question no.9:

Farmer Brown had 25 cows and chickens. They had a total of 72 legs. How many cows and how many chickens did Farmer Brown have?

Solution:

Let the number of cows be "x" and the number of chickens be "y".

According to question,

x + y = 25 4x + 2y = 72 -->(ii)

=> 4(x + y) = 25 × 4

=> 4x + 4y = 100 -->(i)

By Elimination method,

Equation (i) - (ii)

(4x + 4y) - (4x + 2y) = 100 - 72

=> 4x + 4y - 4x - 2y = 28

=> 2y = 28

=> y = 28/2

=> y = 14

Putting the value of "y" in Equation (ii)

4x + 2y = 72

=> 4x + 2 × 14 = 72

=> 4x + 28 = 72

=> 4x = 72 - 28

=> 4x = 44

=> x = 44/4

=> x = 11

Therefore,

Total number of cows = 11

Total number of chickens = 14

Note: In the second equation of this question I've taken 4 and 2.

The reason behind it is simple. Since, I've assumed the number of cows is "x" and a cow has four legs that why infront of "x" I've put 4.

And a chicken has 2 legs and I've assumed it as "y" therefore infront of "y" I've put 2.

======================================

Question no.10:

Farmer Brown had 28 cows and chickens. They had a total of 96 legs. How many cows and how many chickens did Farmer Brown have?

Solution:

Let the number of cows be "x" and the number of chickens be "y".

According to question,

x + y = 28 4x + 2y = 96 -->(ii)

=> 4(x + y) = 28 × 4

=> 4x + 4y = 112 -->(i)

By Elimination method,

Equation (i) - (ii)

(4x + 4y) - (4x + 2y) = 112 - 96

=> 4x + 4y - 4x - 2y = 16

=> 2y = 16

=> y = 16/2

=> y = 8

Putting the value of "y" in Equation (ii)

4x + 2y = 96

=> 4x + 2 × 8 = 96

=> 4x + 16 = 96

=> 4x = 96 - 16

=> 4x = 80

=> x = 80/4

=> x = 20

Therefore,

Total number of cows = 20

Total number of chickens = 8

Note: In the second equation of this question I've taken 4 and 2.

The reason behind it is simple. Since, I've assumed the number of cows is "x" and a cow has four legs that why infront of "x" I've put 4.

And a chicken has 2 legs and I've assumed it as "y" therefore infront of "y" I've put 2.

1. As you can tell from the function definition and plot, there's a discontinuity at x = -2. But in the limit from either side of x = -2, f(x) is approaching the value at the empty circle:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-2}f(x) = \lim_{x\to-2}(x-2) = -2-2 = \boxed{-4}[/tex]

Basically, since x is approaching -2, we are talking about values of x such x ≠ 2. Then we can compute the limit by taking the expression from the definition of f(x) using that x ≠ 2.

2. f(x) is continuous at x = -1, so the limit can be computed directly again:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1} f(x) = \lim_{x\to-1}(x-2) = -1-2=\boxed{-3}[/tex]

3. Using the same reasoning as in (1), the limit would be the value of f(x) at the empty circle in the graph. So

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-2}f(x) = \boxed{-1}[/tex]

4. Your answer is correct; the limit doesn't exist because there is a jump discontinuity. f(x) approaches two different values depending on which direction x is approaching 2.

5. It's a bit difficult to see, but it looks like x is approaching 2 from above/from the right, in which case

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to2^+}f(x) = \boxed{0}[/tex]

When x approaches 2 from above, we assume x > 2. And according to the plot, we have f(x) = 0 whenever x > 2.

6. It should be rather clear from the plot that

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to0}f(x) = \lim_{x\to0}(\sin(x)+3) = \sin(0) + 3 = \boxed{3}[/tex]

because sin(x) + 3 is continuous at x = 0. On the other hand, the limit at infinity doesn't exist because sin(x) oscillates between -1 and 1 forever, never landing on a single finite value.

For 7-8, divide through each term by the largest power of x in the expression:

7. Divide through by x². Every remaining rational term will converge to 0.

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{x^2+x-12}{2x^2-5x-3} = \lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{1+\frac1x-\frac{12}{x^2}}{2-\frac5x-\frac3{x^2}}=\boxed{\frac12}[/tex]

8. Divide through by x² again:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-\infty}\frac{x+3}{x^2+x-12} = \lim_{x\to-\infty}\frac{\frac1x+\frac3{x^2}}{1+\frac1x-\frac{12}{x^2}} = \frac01 = \boxed{0}[/tex]

9. Factorize the numerator and denominator. Then bearing in mind that "x is approaching 6" means x ≠ 6, we can cancel a factor of x - 6:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to6}\frac{2x^2-12x}{x^2-4x-12}=\lim_{x\to6}\frac{2x(x-6)}{(x+2)(x-6)} = \lim_{x\to6}\frac{2x}{x+2} = \frac{2\times6}{6+2}=\boxed{\frac32}[/tex]

10. Factorize the numerator and simplify:

[tex]\dfrac{-2x^2+2}{x+1} = -2 \times \dfrac{x^2-1}{x+1} = -2 \times \dfrac{(x+1)(x-1)}{x+1} = -2(x-1) = -2x+2[/tex]

where the last equality holds because x is approaching +∞, so we can assume x ≠ -1. Then the limit is

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{-2x^2+2}{x+1} = \lim_{x\to\infty} (-2x+2) = \boxed{-\infty}[/tex]

Answers

Using the z-distribution, as we have the population standard deviation, it is found that a sample of 96 people must be taken.

What is the margin of error for the z-distribution?

It is given by:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

z is the critical value.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is te population standard deviation.n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.99[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so the critical value is z = 2.575.

Additionally, we have that [tex]\sigma = 38, M = 10[/tex], hence we solve for n to find the minimum sample size needed.

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]10 = 2.575\frac{38}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]10\sqrt{n} = 38 \times 2.575[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 3.8 \times 2.575[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (3.8 \times 2.575)^2[/tex]

Now you divide Jake's 168 pgs by 24 and you get that it would take him 7 days to read the book. At 5 days Jake still has 48 pages to read. Now, Julio's 180 pages divided by his 30 pages / day which will be 6 days to complete his book. At 5 days he will have only 30 pages to read.
