Mathematics

Korvikt [17]3 years ago
5 0
1. Use a straightedge to draw line m and label a point on the line as point F

2. Construct a line perpendicular to line m through point F. Label a point on this line as point G.

3. With the compass open to the desired side length of the square, place the compass point on point F and draw an arc on line m and an arc on FG←→ . Label the points of intersection as points H and K.

4. Without changing the compass width, place the compass point on point H and draw an arc in the interior of ∠HFK.

5. Keeping the same compass width, place the compass on point K and draw an arc in the interior of ∠HFK to intersect the previously drawn arc. Label the point of intersection as point J.

6. Use the straightedge to draw JH¯¯¯¯¯ and JK¯¯¯¯¯.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

3. 72= (x)+(x+1)+(x+2) where x= the smallest number

72=3x+3

-3        -3

69=3x

/3   /3

x=23

x+1=24

x+2=25

smallest is 23

4. 48= (x)+(x+2)+(x+4)

48= 3x+6

-6        -6

42=3x

/3    /3

x=14

x+2=16

x+4=18

smallest is 14

5. all erasers were the same cost

25= 4x+5 (x= cost of erasers)

-5         -5

20=4x

/4   /4

x=5

each cost  $5

6. b= boxes

22= b/2 +7

-7            -7

15=b/2

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator

30=b

30 boxes originally

7. 40= total

8= left

2= balls given to each

x=number of friends

40= 2x+8

-8         -8

32=2x

/2   /2

x=16

she has 16 friends

8.  12= left

a= total allowance

12= (a/2) +4

-4            -4

8= a/2

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator

a= $16

she had an allowance of $16

9.  4 (2) = amount that her four children recieved

10=amount she took for herself

x= original

x= 4(2) + 10

x= 8 +10

x=18

she started with 18 candies

10. a= age

244= 400 - 2a

-400 -400

-156= -2a

/-2     /-2

a= 78

they are 78 years old

11. c= comic books

36=  c/2 + 16

-16           -16

20=c/2

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator

c=40

she started with 40 comic books

12.  b= students in buses

472= 9b + 4

-4             -4

468=9b

/9     /9

b= 52

52 students went in each bus

13. h= hats

17= h/2 +5

-5          -5

12=h/2

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator

h=24

she had 24 hats on monday

14. p= pies the club made

60= (p+4)/5

multiply both sides by 5 to cancel the denominator

300=p+4

-4         -4

p= 296

the club made 296 pies
