7 0

Based on the task content; If you multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality symbol should be reversed always. Option B

<h3>Multiplication of inequality</h3>

Based on the rule of inequality, whenever you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign.

For instance,

-4x > 12

divide both sides by -4

x < 12/-4

x < -3

If you multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality symbol should be reversed always.

A circular picture is 8 inches in diameter.

velikii [3]

The formula of an area of a circle with radius r:

$A=\pi r^2$

Part A.

We have diameter of the circle d = 8 in. The diameter of a circle is equal two times length of a radius.

Therefore:

$r=\dfrac{d}{2}\to r=\dfrac{8}{2}=4\ in$

Calculate the area:

$A=\pi\cdot4^2=16\pi\ in^2$

Answer: C. 16π square inches.

Part 2.

Look at the picture.

Total area:

$A=\pi\cdot6^2=36\pi\ in^2$

Answer: C. 36π square inches

Can anybody explain how to subtract mixed fractions?

Ilya [14]

Answer:

<em>convert </em>the mixed fractions to improper fractions (where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator): multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator, add that to the numerator, write the result on top of the denominator.
if the denominators are not the same, work out the common denominator and <em>rewrite </em>the fractions with the same denominators
subtract by subtracting the numerators and writing the result over the denominator
convert back to mixed fractions by dividing the numerator by the denominator, write down the whole number answer, write down the remainder above the denominator.

Example

$3\frac23-1\frac45$
