Multiplication property of equality can be used to solve: $\frac{b}{-2} = 18$

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, lets define the multiplication property of equality

The multiplication property of equality states that if one side of an equation is multiplied with any number the other side is also multiplied with the number.

Given equations are:

$(x+2)(x-2) = 0\\m+7 = -12\\\frac{b}{-2} = 18\\-3+y = 7$

By observing the equations we can see that only third equation has a fraction in it so it has to be multiplied with -2 for solution

$\frac{b}{-2} * - 2 = 18*-2\\b = -36$

Hence,

Multiplication property of equality can be used to solve: $\frac{b}{-2} = 18$

System of equations by substitution how do this? y= x+2 y= -4x+7

jekas [21]

Equations are given,
y= x+2

y= -4x+7

As you can see both the expressions, x+2 and -4x+7 are equal to "y". That means they are equal to each other too.

So let's equal them and solve it.

 $x+2=-4x+7\\ \\ x+2+4x=7\\ \\ x+4x+2=7\\ \\ 5x+2=7\\ \\ 5x=7-2\\ \\ 5x=5\\ \\ x=\frac { 5 }{ 5 } \\ \\ x=1$

Now we have x's value we will plug it in the first equation to find "y".

 $x=1\\ \\ y=x+2\\ \\ y=1+2\\ \\ y=3$

The radius of a circle is 3 miles. What is the length of a 90° arc?

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The length of the arc is 4.6375 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, find the perimeter of the circle by doing 2*pi*r, you'll get about 18.55 miles.

2*pi*r ---> 2*pi*3 ---> 6*pi ---> ≈ 18.55 miles

Next, plug in x/360, where 360 is the total arc of a circle, and x is the arc you need.

x/360 ---> 90/360 ---> = 0.25

Lastly multiply the two numbers.

18.55 * 0.25 ---> 4.6375 miles is your answer.

(you may need to round your answer if needed)
