Kenya is solving the equation 5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2. She gets to 1 1/4 = 1/6x. Is this a valid way to solve the equation? answer

Alona [7]

Answer:

15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2

move the variable to it's own side.

5 3/4 - 4 1/2 = 1/6x

change the subtracting side to have common denominators

5 3/4 - 4 2/4 = 1/6x

1 1/4 = 1/6 x

divide both sides by 1/6, same thing as multiplying both sides by 6 (reciprocal)

30/4 = x

reduce: 15/2 = x

What quadrilateral always has 4 congruent angles and opposite that are congruent and paralle

nignag [31]

Another quadrilateral that you might see is called a rhombus. All four sides of a rhombus are congruent. Its properties include that each pair of opposite sides is parallel, also making it a parallelogram. In summary, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

The area of circle B is 121 times greater than the area of circle A. The radius of circle B is 44. What is the radius of circle

xxMikexx [17]

<em>Formula:</em>
$\bigg( \dfrac{radius_1}{radius_2} \bigg)^2 = \dfrac{area_1}{area_2}$

<em>Plug in the values:</em>
$\bigg( \dfrac{r}{44} \bigg)^2 = \dfrac{1}{121}$

<em>Simplify LHS:</em>
$\dfrac{r^2}{1936} = \dfrac{1}{121}$

<em>Multiply by 1936 on both sides:</em>
$r^2 = \dfrac{1936}{121}
$

<em>Simplify RHS:</em>
$r^2 = 16$

<em>Square root both sides:</em>
$r = 4$

Answer: The radius is 4 units. (Answer B)
