<h3><u>Given</u> :</h3>

A number minus 8 is the same as a number divided by 2.

We have to find that number $.$

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

Let the number be x.

From the given question,

1. Number minus 8

x - 8 ..... (I)

2. Number divided by 2

x/2 ..... (II)

ATQ : (I) = (II)

⭆ x - 8 = x/2

⭆ 2(x -8) = x

⭆ 2x - 16 = x

⭆ 2x - x = 16

⭆ <u>x = 16</u>

Solve 4a = 20

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Here's the solutions :

1. solve for a :

$4a = 20$

$a = \dfrac{20}{4}$

$a = 5$

2. solve for y :

$3y + 9 = 24$

$3y = 24 - 9$

$3y = 15$

$y = \dfrac{15}{3}$

$y = 5$

3. solve for y :

$\dfrac{y}{3} - 5 = 4$

$\dfrac{y}{3} = 5 + 4$

$\dfrac{y}{3} = 9$

$y = 9 \times 3$

$y = 27$

4. solve for k :

$3 = 9 - 4k$

$3 - 9 = -4 k$

$- 6 = - 4 k$

$k = \dfrac{ - 6}{ - 4}$

$k = \dfrac{3}{2} \: \: \: or \: \: 1.5$

5. there's something wrong with this question.

6. solve for x :

$3x + 8 = 2$

$3x = 2 - 8$

$3x = - 6$

$x = \dfrac{ - 6}{3}$

$x = - 2$

Can someone help me with this problem?????

snow_tiger [21]

The perimeter is composed of two straight parts and two semicircles. We can use this to break down the problem.

We can find the straight parts easily. They are given in the problem.

straight parts: 82 x 2 = 164 m

The two semicircles make a circle. We just have to find the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 66 cm to get the length of the semicircles.

semicircles: 2(π)(66/2) = 66(3.14) = 207.24 m

answer: 164+207.24 = 371.24 m

If a=8 and b=5 and x=4 and y=6m -2 what is the value of m ?

Serga [27]

Answer:

m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x = 4

y = 6m - 2

a = 8

b = 5

Required:

Value of m

SOLUTION:

x and y are segments of a chord divided when it intersects another chord that also has segments a and b.

According to the Intersecting chords theorem, $a*b = x*y$

Thus:

$8*5 = 4*(6m - 2)$

Solve for m

$40 = 24m - 8$

$40 + 8 = 24m - 8 + 8$

$48 = 24m$

$\frac{48}{24} = \frac{24m}{24}$

$2 = m$

The value of m = 2

What is three equivalent ratios for 10/12

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

5:6

20:24

30:36

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find an equivalent ratio, you have to multiply or divide your numerator and denominator by the same number.

For example:

10/12 x 3/3

30/36 = 30:36

10/12 is equivalent to 30:36
