A = 5 + B
A + 5 = 2B

Let's get one of the variables on one side.

A = 5 + B
A = 2B - 5

By the transitive property

5 + B = 2B - 5

Solve for B.

5 = B - 5
10 = B

Use 10 = B in an earlier equation to find A.

A = 5 + B
A = 5 + 10
A = 15

Abe has 15$ and Ben has 10$.

A circle has its center at the center of a square with 26-inch sides. Using 3.14 for pi, find the area of the square not covered
AlladinOne [14]
For squrae
area=side²
perimiter=4(side)

for circle
area=pir²
circumference=2pir

side=diameter, diameter/2=radius=side/2


find area not covered
that is areasquare-areacircle
areasquare=26²=676 sqauare inches
areaciecle, diameter=side, 26/2=13, area=pi13²=169*3.14=530.66 square inches

areanotcovered=676-530.66=145.34 square inches not coverd


ratio of perimiter to circumferece
perimiter=4*26=104
circumference=2pir=2pi13=26pi=26*3.14=81.64
circumference to perimiter is 81.64/104=0.785
