1/4 x + 2 = -5x/8 - 5

x/4 + 2 = -5x / 8 - 5

we collect like term

x/4 + 5x / 8 = -5 - 2

2x + 5x / 8 = -7

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The answer to your question is        diameter  = 19.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Circumference = 62 in

diameter = ?

Process

1.- Write the formula of Circumference, remember that circumference = perimeter.

    Perimeter = 2πr

2.- Equal the equation to the value given

                        2πr = 62

-Solve it for r

                            r = 62/2(3.14)

-Result

                           r = 62/6.28

                           r = 9.87 in

3.- Find the diameter

             diameter = 2r

             diameter = 2(9.87)

             diameter  = 19.7 in
