Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that A, B, and C constitute the vertices of a right angle triangle, with the right angle at the vertex A.
If we count the number of squares separating B and A (one of the legs of the right angle triangle) we find 8 units.
If we count the number of squares separating C from A (the other leg of the right angle triangle), we get: 3 units.
Then, we apply the Pythagorean theorem to find that length of the triangle's hypotenuse which is the segment BC:
Answer: First option.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete exercise is attached.
In order to solve this exercise, it is necessary to remember the following property:
The Multiplication property of Equality states that:
In this case, the equation that Jada had is the folllowing:
Jada needed to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value.
The correct procedure to solve for for "x" is to multiply both sides of the equation by 108. Then, you get:
As you can notice in the picture, Jada did not multiply both sides of the equation by 108, but multiplied the left side by <em> </em>and the right side by
.
Therefore,you can conclude that Jada should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 108.
