Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

1/5 × (x - 2) = 20

First step to solving the equation is

By multiplying both sides by the value of 5.

That will give,

x - 2 = 100

x = 100 + 2

= 102

Answer:

The number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using reciprocal method

1/5(x-2)=20

We'll multiply the both sides by the reciprocal of 1/5 which is 5

(1/5)*5(x-2)= 20*5

1(x-2)= 100

X-2 = 100

X= 100+2

X = 102

But note that we multiplied the equation by 5 which is reciprocal of 1/5 as the first step.

Answer:

16П or approximately 50.3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is equal to П*r²

Since the circle is inside a rectangle with side that is equal to 8, we know that d = 8

2r = d

r = 8/2

r = 4

A = П*r²

A = П*16

А = 16П ( or 16*3.141592653589793238... = 50.26548... ≈ 50.3)
