Let the number of pages read on day 1 be = x

Then on day 2 he read twice the pages from day one, it is = 2x

On 3rd day he read 6 pages less than 1st day, it is = x-6

Total pages are = 458

The equation becomes: x+2x+x-6=458

4x-6=458

4x=464

x=116

So on the third day, Aiden read x-6=116-6=110 pages.

Choose any positive integer. Powers of two here are not very interesting, so choose something else. If the number you have chose
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the integer be 6 for even and 7 for odd (say)

For 6, we divide by 2, now get 3.  Now we multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10. Now since 10 is even divide by 5, now multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 16.  Now divide by 2 again by 2 again by 2 again by 2 till we get rid of even numbers.

The result is 1, so multiply by 3 and add 1 we get 4 now divide 2 times by 2 to get 1, thus this result now again repeats after 2 times.

Say if we select off number 3, multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10 now divide by 5, now repeat the same process as above for 5 until we get 1 and it gets repeated every third time.

Thus whether odd or even after some processes, we get 1 and the process again and again returns to 1.

What values of b satisfy 4(3b + 2)2 = 64?
rodikova [14]
Assuming yo meant
4(3b+2)²=64

divide both sides by 4
(3b+2)²=16
sqrt both sides
remember to take positive and negative roots
3b+2=+/-4
minus 2 both sides
3b=-2+/-4
divide by 3
b=(-2+/-4)/3
b=(-2+4)/3 or (-2-4)/3
b=2/3 or -6/3
b=2/3 or -2

Circle D is shown with the measures of the minor arcs. Which segments are congruent? EH and EF GH and FE FG and EH EF and GF
elixir [45]
I can't really answer this problem if we focus only on the given information. However, I found a similar problem to this with a given diagram. This is shown in the picture attached. As you can observe, two arcs have equal measures of 65° and two have measures of 115°. Thus, the congruent arcs are: <em>EH = HG and EF = GF.</em>
