Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

[tex]\huge x=-6[/tex]

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\-8x-4(x-4)=88\\-------------\\\rightarrow -8x-4x+16=88\\\\\rightarrow -12x + 16 = 88\\\\\rightarrow -12x + 16 - 16 = 88 - 16\\\\\rightarrow -12x = 72\\\\\rightarrow \frac{-12x=72}{12}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x=-6}[/tex]

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.  

Answer 2

Answer: x = -6

Step-by-step explanation: Start by changing the - 4 to plus a negative 4 so that you know you're distributing a -4 through the parentheses.

So we have -8x - 4x + 16 = 88.

Simplifying the left side further gives us -12x + 16 = 88.

Now subtract 16 from both sides to get -12x = 72.

From here it should be easy to find the x = -6.

168 cm³

960 m³

420 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

SA = 2(wl + hl + hw)

SA = 2 · (8 · 16 + 5 · 16 + 5 · 8)

SA = 496

SA = 2(wl + hl + hw)

SA = 2 · (5 · 13 + 6 · 13 + 6 · 5)

SA = 346

SA = 2(wl + hl + hw)

SA = 2 · (4 · 20 + 15 · 20 + 15 · 4)

SA = 880

V = whl

V = 4 · 7 · 6

V = 168

V = whl

V = 10 · 8 · 12

V = 960

V = whl

V = 14 · 3 · 10

V = 420

The sum of a father's and his son's age is 60. Eight years ago, the father's age was 3 times that of his son. How old is each of them?​

Answers

Answer:

Father=41

Son=19

Step-by-step explanation:

Father=f

Son=s

f+s=60

Eight years ago would mean that 16 is subtracted from 60 since there is both of them

3s+s=4s

4s=44

s=11

Answers

Answer:

24) x = 9.2

25) x = 30.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangles

Solving (24)

To solve for x, we make use of cosine formula

i.e.

cos(40) = adjacent ÷ hypotenuse

So, we have:

cos(40) = x ÷ 12

Multiply both sides by 12

12 cos(40) = x

12 * 0.7660 = x

x = 9.2

Solving (25)

To solve for x, we make use of sine formula

i.e.

sin(25) = opposite ÷ hypotenuse

So, we have:

sin(25) = 13 ÷ x

Multiply both sides by

x sin(25) = 13

Divide by sin(25)

x = 13 ÷ sin(25)

Using a calculator

x = 30.8

Find two positive numbers so that twice their sum equals their product and one number is 10 times the other number. Enter the smaller number first.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll call the 2 numbers x and y. Starting with the last part of that first sentence "one number is 10 times the other number" can be written, in algebraic form:

y = 10x

Now on to the first statement about the numbers: "twice their sum" is 2(x + y) and "equals their product" is = xy. Putting that all together:

2(x + y) = xy and we know that y = 10x so

2(x + 10x) = x(10x) and

[tex]2(11x)=10x^2[/tex] and

[tex]10x^2-22x=0[/tex] and

x(10x - 22) = 0 so

x = 0 or 10x - 22 = 0 which makes

x equal to [tex]\frac{22}{10}=2.2[/tex]

So x = 2.2 and y = 22.

9. Consider the line y = 4x+9. If a second line is perpendicular to this one, what is its slope? please show your work, i will mark brainliest!

Answers

Answer:

Slope of the line perpendicular to the given line = [tex]- \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If two are lines are perpendicular to each other,

the product of their slopes = - 1 .

That is ,

      [tex]m_ 1 \times m_2 = -1[/tex]

Slope of the given line :

[tex]m_ 1 = 4[/tex]

Hence slope of the line perpendicular to it :

                                                                [tex]4 \times m_ 2 = - 1 \\\\\frac{4}{4} \times m_2 = - \frac{1}{4} \\\\1 \times m_2 = - \frac{1}{4}\\\\m_ 2 = \frac{-1}{4}[/tex]

The slope of the line perpendicular to the equation y = 4x + 9 is m = -1/4

What is an Equation of a line?

The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

And y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y = y-coordinate of second point

y₁ = y-coordinate of point one

m = slope

x = x-coordinate of second point

x₁ = x-coordinate of point one

The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Given data ,

Let the equation of line be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

y = 4x + 9   be equation (1)

The equation is of the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Slope m = 4

Now , the second line is perpendicular to the line A , the product of slopes of the lines will be -1

So , m₁ x m₂ = -1

4 x m₂ = -1

Divide by 4 on both sides of the equation , we get

m₂ = -1/4

Therefore the value of m₂ is -1/4

Hence , the slope of the line is m₂ = -1/4
