How do I do pre-Algebra???

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Hey there!

The main concept of pre-algebra is solving equations for variables in them.

For example, let's say you have the algebraic equation below.

x+1=3

With algebra, you need to figure what x is equal to. To do so, you will use inverse operations on both sides of the equation to isolate x one side, showing what it is equal to.

We would subtract 1 to both sides to isolate x on one side.

x+1-1=3-1

As you can see, +1-1=0, therefore, this would give us x+0, or just x. Now it is isolated and will show us what it is equal to.

x=3-1

x=2

Therefore, in our equation x+1=3, x would be equal to 2.

I hope this explanation helps! Have a great time here at Brainly!

An artist wants to frame a square painting with an area of 400 square inches. She wants to know the length of the wood trim that
Maurinko [17]
Area=legnth times width

if legnth=x
and
area=400

400=x times width

wait
SQUARE painting
legnth=width
width=x

400=x times x
400=x^2
sqrt both sides
20=x
answer is 20 in

equation is
400=x times x

Find the value of r so the line that passes through the pair of points has the given slope. (3, 5), (−3, r), m=34
frez [133]

The value (y2) of r = 1/2.

This question relates to equation of a straight line but we are looking for the slope in this case.

<h3>Slope</h3>

This is the ratio to which we measure the change along the y-axis to the change along the x-axis. The formula is given as

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Data given;

  • x1  = 3
  • x2 = -3
  • y1 = 5
  • y2 = r
  • m = 34 or 3/4

Substitute the values into the equation and solve for the unknown

NB; we are assuming that the slope here is 34 and not 3/4.

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \\34 = \frac{r - 5}{-3 - 3}\\34 = \frac{r - 5}{-6}\\

cross multiply both sides and make r the subject of formula

34 * -6 = r - 5\\-204 = r - 5\\r = -204+5\\r = -199

the value of r = -199.

This is not mathematically obtainable and we would use 3/4 as the value of slope

\frac{3}{4}= \frac{r - 5}{-3 - 3}\\\frac{3}{4}=\frac{r - 5}{-6}\\4(r-5) = 3 * -6\\4r- 20 = -18\\4r = -18 +20\\4r = 2\\r = \frac{1}{2}

The most logical value of r = 1/2
