81=81•2/2=162/2
81 1/2=162/2+1/2
=163/2
So 81 1/2=163/2=81.5
Answer:
26.7 (Add unit)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter= 187
Number of sides= 7
Side= Total length of sides/Number of sides
Side= 187/7
Side= 26.7

Answer:
I've pretty much already solved this, in my discussion above:
| 3 | = 3
| –3 | = 3
So then x must be equal to 3 or equal to –3.
But how am I supposed to solve this if I don't already know the answer? I will use the positive / negative property of the absolute value to split the equation into two cases, and I will use the fact that the "minus" sign in the negative case indicates "the opposite sign", not "a negative number".
For example, if I have x = –6, then "–x " indicates "the opposite of x" or, in this case, –(–6) = +6, a positive number. The "minus" sign in "–x" just indicates that I am changing the sign on x. It does not indicate a negative number. This distinction is crucial!
Whatever the value of x might be, taking the absolute value of x makes it positive. Since x might originally have been positive and might originally have been negative, I must acknowledge this fact when I remove the absolute-value bars. I do this by splitting the equation into two cases. For this exercise, these cases are as follows:
a. If the value of x was non-negative (that is, if it was positive or zero) to start with, then I can bring that value out of the absolute-value bars without changing its sign, giving me the equation x = 3.
b. If the value of x was negative to start with, then I can bring that value out of the absolute-value bars by changing the sign on x, giving me the equation –x = 3, which solves as x = –3.
Then my solution
1232 divided by 70. long division. the remainder is 42. the quotient is 17
