Three times x: 3x
is two more than half of y: 1/2y + 2

3x = 1/2y + 2

Isolate the y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side you do to the other. Also do the opposite of PEMDAS.

3x (-2) = 1/2y + 2 (-2)

3x - 2 = 1/2y

2(1/2y) = 2(3x - 2)

y = 2(3x - 2)

distribute the 2 to all terms inside the parenthesis

2(3x) = 6x
2(-2) = -4

y = 6x - 4, or D)

hope this helps

Remark
Start with y. Then move over to x and see what it does.

Step one
Find the expression for y
The whole equation = 1/2 y

Step Two
Find the detailed expression for x
3 times x = 3x

Step 3 
Add 2 onto y
3x = 1/2 y + 2

Step 4
Equate the 2 parts and solve
1/2 y + 2 = 3x                Subtract 2 from both sides.
1/2 y = 3x - 2                 Multiply both sides by 2
y = 2*(3x - 2)                 Whatever is on either side of the minus must be multiplied by 2. That means you use brackets.

y = 6x - 4

Circumference, radius, slant height, lateral area, and surface area are measurements of a cone. Given two of the measurements, f
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

  1. LA = 21.7 ft²; C = 18.8 ft; h = 2.3 ft
  2. h = 8 in; r = 7 in; SA = 330.1 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Applicable relations are ...

  C = 2πr . . . . . . . r = radius, C = circumference

  LA = 1/2·Ch . . . . h = slant height, LA = lateral area

  SA = πr² +LA . . . SA = total surface area

__

1. Given r and SA, we can find the other measures as ...

  LA = SA -πr² = 50 ft² -π(3 ft)² ≈ 21.7 ft²

  C = 2πr = 2π(3 ft) ≈ 18.8 ft

  h = 2·LA/C ≈ 2·21.7 ft²/(18.8 ft) ≈ 2.3 ft

(Please note that for calculations using intermediate results, we used the full-precision values of those results, not the rounded ones. Rounding is always the last operation. Please note, too, that we have used a value for π sufficient to ensure accuracy in all the digits shown here.)

__

2. Given C and LA, we can find the other measures as ...

  h = 2·LA/C = 2(176 in²)/(44 in) = 8 in

  r = C/(2π) = (44 in)/(2π) ≈ 7.0 in

  SA = LA +πr² = LA +rC/2 ≈ 176 in² +(7.0 in)(44 in)/2 ≈ 330.1 in²
