From the set {6, 16, 24}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the inequality true. 4 + x < 20 A. 16 B. 6 C. none of these D. 24

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: B. 6

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

Explanation:

In math, the term "substitution" basically means "replace". Keep in mind that x is a placeholder for a number. Think of it as a box we place a number inside.

We have the items {6, 16, 24} to use as replacements for x. We only do one number at a time

Let's try x = 6

4 + x < 20

4 + 6 < 20 ... replace x with 6

10 < 20 ... this is a true statement as 10 is less than 20

So x = 6 is a solution

Let's try x = 16

4+x < 20

4+16 < 20

20 < 20 ... this is false because we can't have a number smaller than itself

Lastly, let's try x = 24

4+x < 20

4+24 < 20

28 < 20 ... also false; 28 is not smaller than 20

We've shown that x = 16 and x = 24 are not solutions. Only x = 6 is a solution from the set {6,16,24}. This is why the answer is choice B.

-----------------

Alternative method:

4+x is the same as x+4. We can add two numbers in any order we want.

x+4 < 20 solves to x < 16 after subtracting 4 from both sides. So the set of solutions is anything smaller than 16. Looking at {6,16,24} we see that the only allowed answer is x = 6.

x = 16 is not a solution because x < 16 would turn into 16 < 16, but again we can't have a number smaller than itself.

Answers

Answer:

3 or 3/1

The work is below:

-1-5/0-2

-6/-2

3/1

m=3

When we calculate the slope using the formula, we find that the slope(m) equals to 3/1 or 3 which means that you rise up by 3 and run to the right 1.

The slope of the line through (0, 5) and (-2, -1) will be 3 or 3/1.

What is the slope?

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same). A measure of steepness is a slope. When building roads, one must determine how steep the road will be. These are some examples of slopes in real life.

[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

It is given the line is passed through the following points,

(x₁,y₁)=(0, 5)

(x₂,y₂)=(-2, -1)

The slope of the line is found as,

m=(y₂-y₁) / (x₂-x₁)

Substitute the given values,

m=-(1-5)/(0-2)

m=(-6)/(-2)

m=3/1

The slope(m) equals 3/1, or 3 when we compute the slope using the formula, meaning that you rise up by 3 and move to the right by 1.

Thus, the slope of the line through (0, 5) and (-2, -1) will be 3 or 3/1.

In this special triangle if the side length that sees 30° is represented by x and the side length that sees 90° is represented by 2x and the side length that sees 60° x√3

The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 4sqrt(2) units. How many square units are in the area of the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

8sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles is a triangle with 2 45 degree angles and one 90 degree angle.

if the hypotenuse side=4sqrt(2) than that means the other 2 sides have to be just 4 units.

the formula for a triangle is than (base×height)÷2

4×4sqrt(2)=16sqrt(2)

(16sqrt(2))/2=8sqrt(2)

Answer:

19.595 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Find length of other sides:

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides equal. It has two 45 degrees angles and one  90 degrees angle. We can use Pythagorean theorem.

[tex](4\sqrt{2} )^2 =a^2 +a^2[/tex]

[tex]32 =2a^2[/tex]

[tex]16=a^2[/tex]

[tex]4=a[/tex]

The 2 equal sides measure 4 units.

Find area:

base × height × 1/2

The height can be found by Pythagorean theorem.

height² = 4² + 4sqrt(2)²

height²  = 16 + 32

height² = 48

height = 6.928

base is given

4sqrt(2) × 6.928 × 1/2

= 19.595343

Answers

Answer:

Triangle P and Triangle Q are mathematically similar shapes (?).

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, so the question asks which statement is true, given the following information, but you haven't written what statements we can choose from.

After reading the information, we can see that Triangle Q is the same shape as Triangle P but just larger.

I'm assuming that one of the statements given is about Triangle P and Triangle Q being mathematically similar shapes?

If you need to show your working out, here it is:

18 ÷ 6 = 3

24 ÷ 8 = 3

30 ÷ 10 = 3

All the angles are the same.

This means that the length scale factor is +3 from Triangle P to Triangle Q, the area scale factor is +9 (because 3 x 3 = 9) from Triangle P to Triangle Q, and that the two shapes are mathematically similar.

*DISCLAIMER* The majority of question askers on Brainly seem to be from the US, and I'm not, so the way I work things out / the mathematical terms I use might be different. Sorry!

A lion can eat a sheep in 2 hours, a wolf can eat a sheep in 3 hours, and a dog can eat the sheep in 6 hours. How long would it take a lion, a wolf, and a dog all together to eat the poor sheep?

Answers

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The lion's speed is 1 sheep / 2 hours = ½ sheep/hour.

The wolf's speed is 1 sheep / 3 hours = ⅓ sheep/hour.

The dog's speed is 1 sheep / 6 hours = ⅙ sheep/hour.

Their combined speed is ½ + ⅓ + ⅙ = 1 sheep/hour.

What is the solution to the equation 32x − 1 = 243? Question 18 options: A) x = 2 B) x = 3 C) x = 4 D) x = −2

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, first you want to write the whole thing out.

32x - 1 = 243

Next you want to get the variable by itself, so you are going to use inverse operations. in the equation, it is 32x - 1, so you are going to add one to both sides, getting you this:

32x = 244

Now for the final step you are going to get x alone, so you are going to use inverse operations once more and divide 32 on both sides getting you your answer.

x = 4

Now if you want to check your work simply plug in x, and if it is equal, you got the correct answer!

I hope this helped and good luck with your math!

3. x = 4

4. x = 3         y = 2/9 or 0.2222222222222...

Step-by-step explanation:

2.

in my stategy, you plus -5x + 8y = -4 with 6x - 8y = -12

+8y and -8y could delete each other, then y will be gone.

-5x + 6y = 1x = x because -5 + 6 = 1

so then you could got x = (-4) + (-12) which means x = -16

if x = -16 that will then means

(-5) x (-16) + 8y = -4

80 + 8y = -4

8y = -4 - 80

8y = -84

y = -10.5

3.

This question has already given you that y = -5

that means,  3x + 6 × (-5) = -18

3x + -30 = -18

3x = -18 - (-30)

3x = 12

x = 4

4.

Like the 2. qestion, you first plus the 2 equation together,

+9y + -9y = 0

-7x + 4x = -3x

-19 + 10 = -9

than means

-3x = -9

x = 3

then put the x = 3 in one of the equation.

4 x 3 - 9y = 10

12 - 9y = 10

-9y = 10 - 12

-9y = -2

-7 x 3 + 9y = -19

-21 + 9y = -19

9y = -19 + 21

9y = 2

y = 2/9 or 0.2222222222...
