7 times a certain number is decreased by 8 and the result is equals to 20​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

let x represent the number

7x-8=20

7x=20+8

7x=28

x=28/7

x=4

this is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

7x-8=20         or          x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the certain number is x

7x-8=20

Add 8 on both sides:

7x-8+8=20+8

Simplify:

7x=28

Divide 7 on both sides:

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{28}{7}[/tex]

Simplify:

x=4

Find the value of y

Answers

Answer:

y = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle vertically opposite 3y is congruent, then

(5y - 4) and 3y are same- side interior angles and sum to 180°, that is

5y - 4 + 3y = 180

8y - 4 = 180 ( add 4 to both sides )

8y = 184 ( divide both sides by 8 )

y = 23

Ben and Jerry both have 7 numbers in their data set. Ben's average of his data set is 9. If Jerry average is 2 more than Ben, what does Jerry's data points have to sum to be

Answers

Answer:

Jerry's data points have to sum to be 77.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Ben and Jerry both have total numbers in their data set=7

Average of Ben's data set=9

Average of Jerry's data set=9+2=11

We have to find the Sum of Jerry's data points.

We know that

Average of data=Sum of numbers/Total number of data points

Using the formula

Average of Jerry' data =Sum of numbers in data/7

11=Sum of numbers in data/7

Sum of numbers=[tex]11\times 7[/tex]

Sum of numbers=77

Hence, sum of Jerry' data points=77

a = 5/4 - 1/3

Tickets for the basketball game were sold at 4$ for adults and 2.50$ for students. If 320 tickets were sold for a total of 1100$, how many students tickets were sold? How many adult tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer: Number of students tickets were sold = 120

Number of adults tickets were sold = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Number of adults, y = Number of students

As per given,

x+y=320    ...(i)

4x+2.5y=1100 ...(ii)

Multiply 2.5 on both the sides of (i), we get

2.5x+2.5y=800   ...(iii)

Subtract (iii) from (ii), we get

1.5x=300

[tex]x=\frac{300}{1.5}\\x=200[/tex]

From (i) y= 320-200 = 120

Hence, Number of students tickets were sold = 120

Number of adults tickets were sold = 200

Find the rate of change between:
(1, -1)
(2,4)

Answers

Answer:

rate of change=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The rate of change (or the slope) is calculated from two points with the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

we are given two points: (1,-1), and (2,4)

let's label the points, to avoid confusion:

x1=1

y1=-1

x2=2

y2=4

now substitute into the formula:

*note: remember that we are subtracting the negative numbers. When it's simplified, we add the numbers.

rate of change=(4--1)/(2-1)

simplify:

rate of change=(4+1)/(2-1)

rate of change=5/1

rate of change=5

Elijah puts $550 in an account earning 8% simple interest annually. What is the total amount of money he will have in his account after 6 years, if no withdrawals or deposits are made?​

Answers

Answer:

814?

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest is I = PRT, so you can multiply the 550, by 1.08 by 6 to get the total.

The principal is 550, the rate is 0.08 (using 1.08 because the prior gives interest, and using a whole 1 with it will be the total), and the time is 6 years because the interest is simple annual.

use 0.08 instead of 1.08 when solving for interest.

The interior angle measure of a regular polygon is calculated with the following formula, where n represents the number of sides or interior angles of the regular polygon.




Determine the measure of the interior angles of a regular octagon and identify whether or not a regular octagon can be used as the only shape in a regular tessellation.


144°, no

135°, yes

144°, yes

135°, no



THE RIGHT ANSWER IS A 144°, no

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle measure of a regular polygon is calculated with 180*(n-2)/n, where n represents the number of sides.

A regular octagon has 10 sides so it interior angle = 180*(10-2)/10

= 144

A tessellation is a tile pattern with the same polygon repeating. The polygon's interior angles must combine to form 360 degree. A regular octagon has interior angle of 144 degree which does not add to 360 degree. So a regular octagon cannot be used as the only shape in a regular tessellation.

The answer is 144°, no.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

oct means 10

(n-2)/n * 180

= (10-2)/10 * 180

= 144°

144 + 144 = 288 < 360

144 + 144 + 144 = 432 > 360

so a regular octagon can NOT be used as the only shape in a regular tessellation.
