Hi there!

I believe your answer is:
"Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12."
»»————- ★ ————-««
Here’s why:
⸻⸻⸻⸻
To solve for 'x', we would have to use inverse operations. We would first have to add four to both sides to undo the negative four. Addition is the opposite of subtraction. We would then divide by 2 to isolate 'x'. Division is the opposite of multiplication.⸻⸻⸻⸻
[tex]\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\2x - 4 = 20\\------------\\\rightarrow 2x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4\\\\\rightarrow 2x = 24\\\\\rightarrow \frac{2x=24}{2}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = 12}[/tex]

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 318m. If the width of the parking lot is 61m what is the length
Answer:
98 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify each side of the equation:
318 = 2(61+x)
318= (2)(61) + (2)(x)
318= 122 + 2x
Flip the equation:
2x + 122 = 318
Subtract 122 from each side:
2x + 122 − 122 = 318 − 122
2x = 196
Divide both sides by 2:
2x/2 = 196/2
x = 98
One positive number is 2 more than twice another. Their product is 180.
Step 2 of 2 : Find the numbers by solving the equation.
Answer:
9 and 20
Step-by-step explanation:
x = one number
y = 2x+2 = other number
xy = 190
x(2x+2) = 180
2x^2 +2x = 180
2x^2 +2x- 180 = 0
Factor out 2
x^2 +x -90 = 0
(x+10)(x-9) =0
Using the zero product property
x+10 = 0 x-9=0
x= -10 x=9
But they have to be positive
x = 9
y = 2x+2 = 2(9)+2 = 18+2 = 20
If y = ax^2 + bx + c passes through the points (-3,10), (0,1) and (2,15), what is the value of a + b + c?
Hi there!
[tex]\large\boxed{a + b + c = 6}[/tex]
We can begin by using the point (0, 1).
At the graph's y-intercept, where x = 0, y = 1, so:
1 = a(0)² + b(0) + c
c = 1
We can now utilize the first point given (-3, 10):
10 = a(-3)² + b(-3) + 1
Simplify:
9 = 9a - 3b
Divide all terms by 3:
3 = 3a - b
Rearrange to solve for a variable:
b = 3a - 3
Now, use the other point:
15 = a(2)² + 2(3a - 3) + 1
14 = 4a + 6a - 6
Solve:
20 = 10a
2 = a
Plug this in to solve for b:
b = 3a - 3
b = 3(2) - 3 = 3
Add all solved variables together:
2 + 3 + 1 = 6

Solve the following system of equations using the elimination method.
5x - 5y = 10
6x - 4y= 4
A) (-3,5)
B) (2-7)
C) (-1,-5)
D) (-2,-4)
Answer:
D. (-2,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
When given multi-choice questions like these and you're time bound, substitute the provided answers into the question and see if you'll get the figure beside the '='.
So, using D answers as example 1.
let -2 be x and -4 be y
Substitute these answers into the question.
5(-2)-5(-4)=10
-10+20=10 (+20 because when 2 negative values multiply each other, the operator becomes positive and so is the answer)
10=10
This means the answers provided for D(-2,-4) is the right answer.
PS: Please use or adopt this strategy to solve such questions ONLY when you've been provided with multiple answers to choose from. Plus, it also helps save time.

By factor theorem, if f(t) = 0, t is a zero of the polynomial.
Taking t = 1.

Find the value of x round to the nearest tenth.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
117.9°
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the Law of Cosines equation for C, we get ...
C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))
Filling in the values from the figure, we find the angle X to be ...
X = arccos((y² +z² -x²)/(2yz)) = arccos((55² +50² -90²)/(2·55·50))
X = arccos(-2575/5500) ≈ 117.9°

> There are 14 books on a shelf. 6 of these books are new. The rest of them are used (a) What is the ratio of new books to used books? (b) What is the ratio of used books to all books on the shelf
Answer:
a) 6:8
Because you have 14 books total if you substract 14 - 6= 8, so now you have
14 Books total
6 New Books
8 Used Books.
So, the ratio of new books to used books is 6:8 or if you simplified is 3:4.
b) 8:14
Because you have 8 used books compare to 14 books total. If you simplified your fraction you'll have 4:7

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all
fractions.
18x + 3y = -18
Answer:
y = -6x -6
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form may be given as
y = mx + c where
m is the slope and c is the intercept
Hence given the equation
18x + 3y = -18
subtract 18x from both sides
3y = -18x - 18
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
y = -6x -6
This is the equation in the slope - intercept form with -6 as the slope and -6 as the intercept

[tex]5x-2=4+2x[/tex]
To find:
The number that belongs in the green box and another box.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]5x-2=4+2x[/tex]
Subtracting 2x from both sides, we get
[tex]5x-2-2x=4+2x-2x[/tex]
[tex]3x-2=4[/tex]
Adding 2 on both sides, we get
[tex]3x-2+2=4+2[/tex]
[tex]3x=6[/tex]
We need to divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable x.
On dividing both side by 3, we get

Therefore, the missing values are 3 and 3, and the required equation is [tex]\dfrac{3x}{3}=\dfrac{6}{3}[/tex].

Calculate the minimum number of subjects needed for a research study regarding the proportion of respondents who reported a history of diabetes using the following criteria:
95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.
Answer:
The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.
The sample size is n for which M = 0.05. We don't know the true proportion, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]
Then
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.

Answer:
8. -2a+14
9. w=3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
8.
The distributive property states that we can multiply each component in the parenthesis separately by the number on the outside, and then add that up to get our final answer.
For -2(a-7), this means that we can multiply -2 by a and then -2 by -7 (as 2 is the number on the outside, and a and -7 are the components in the parenthesis), add them up, and get our answer. This can be expressed as
-2 * a + (-2) * (-7) = final answer
= -2 * a + 14
We know that -2 * -7 = 14 because 2 * 7 = 14, and the two negatives in multiplication cancel each other out
9.
Using the subtraction property of equality, we can isolate the variable (w) and its coefficient (-2/3) by subtracting 5, resulting in
(-2/3)w = 4-5 = -1
Next, we can use the multiplication property of equality to isolate the w. To isolate the w, we can multiply its coefficient by its reciprocal. The reciprocal is the fraction flipped over. For (-2/3), its reciprocal is (-3/2), flipping the 2 and 3. We can multiply both sides by (-3/2) to get
w = (-3/2)
To check this, we can plug (-3/2) for w in our original equation, so
(-2/3) * (-3/2) + 5 = 4
-1 + 5 = 4
4 = 4
This works!
Find the length of the leg x
Answer:
12.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras :
c² = a² + b²
c is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90 degree angle).
a and b are the side legs.
so, here we have
14² = 6² + b²
196 = 36 + b²
160 = b²
b = sqrt(160) = sqrt(16×10) = 4×sqrt(10) = 12.65

In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event U: Event that a randomly chosen employee of an insurance company has been an underwriter.
Event C: Event that a randomly chosen employee of an insurance company has been a claims adjuster.
Select the correct answer below:
Claims adjuster given that it has been an underwriter, so P(C|U), and the correct answer is given by option b.

I guess the chef is making the mixture for the sheriff... Let x be the amount of dressing with 5% vinegar that is required, and y the amount of 15% vinegar dressing (both amounts in mL).
The sheriff wants 390 mL of the mixed dressing, so that
x + y = 390
x mL of the 5% dressing contains 0.05x mL of vinegar, while y mL of the 15% dressing contains 0.15y mL of vinegar. The resulting mixture should have a concentration of 9% vinegar, so that it contains 0.09 (390 mL) = 35.1 mL of vinegar. This means
0.05x + 0.15y = 35.1
Solve for x and y :
y = 390 - x
0.05x + 0.15 (390 - x) = 35.1
0.05x + 58.5 - 0.15x = 35.1
23.4 = 0.10x
