We are given the function –2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:

-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.

3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.

If the area of a garden is 11 square feet what could be the dimensions of the garden
sergejj [24]
Assuming that the garden is rectangular in shape, the area of a rectangle is given by length x width.

11 is a prime with factors 1 and 11.

Therefore, if the area of a (rectangular) garden is 11 square feet, then the possible dimension of the garden is 1 feet by 11 feet.

On circle OOO below, the measure of \stackrel{\LARGE{\frown}}{FJ} FJ ⌢ F, J, start superscript, \frown, end superscript is 84^\c
lianna [129]

Answer:

100°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between chords is the average of the intersected arc angles.

∠FKJ = ½ (84° + 76°)

∠FKJ = 80°

∠HKJ is supplementary to ∠FKJ.

∠HKJ = 180° − 80°

∠HKJ = 100°

A ball is launched into the sky at 19.6 feet per second from a 58.8 meter tall building. The equation for the ball's height. h,
Crazy boy [7]
H represents the height of the ball at a given time, symbolised as t.
Thus, we just need to find when h = 0 so that we find when it hits the ground.

0 = -4.9t² + 19.6t + 58.8
0 = 4.9t² - 19.6t - 58.8
0 = 49t² - 196t - 588
0 = t² - 4t - 12
0 = (t - 6)(t + 2)

So, t = 6 or -2, but t ≠ -2, since time cannot be negative in this instance.

Hence, at 6 seconds, the ball will strike the ground.

What is the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.

1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8

0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8

0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8

.

Decimal form = 0.8

Fraction form = 4/5

.

Check:

1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2

1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2

Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.
