Algebra is a very important branch of math.

Algebra is a lot like arithmetic which means it follows all the rules of arithmetic, and it still uses the four main operations that arithmetic is built on.

In arithmetic, the only thing that was unknown was the answer to the problem. For example, 39 + 2 = 41. In algebra, we use a variable to represent the number. A variable is a letter that represents any number. The most common variable is "x".

How do I solve this literal equation? 15 points

kati45 [8]

Answer:

$\pi = \frac{A}{2r^2 + 2rh}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to isolate $\pi$ by taking it common from both terms on the right:

$A=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh\\A=\pi (2r^2 + 2rh)$

Now, since we want $\pi$ in terms of the other variables, we can divide the left hand side (A) by whatever is multiplied with $\pi$ on the right hand side. Then we will have an expression for $\pi$ . Shown below:

$A=\pi (2r^2 + 2rh)\\\pi = \frac{A}{2r^2 + 2rh}$

This is the xpression for $\pi$

Solve 4(x + 2) = 20

KiRa [710]

Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

$\sf 4(x + 2) = 20$

$\sf 4x + 8 = 20$

$\sf 4x = 20 - 8$

$\sf 4x = 12$

$\sf x = \frac{12}{4}$

$\sf x = 3$

check:

4(x + 2) = 20

4(3 + 2) = 20

4(5) = 20

20 = 20

Hence proved x = 3

Which angles are vertical to DEA? Question is located in the attached file (image)

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

∠CEB

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical angle is one that is directly opposite to the original angle. In this image of two intersecting lines, it looks like the angle ∠CEB is directly across from our angle ∠DEA. So, the angle ∠CEB is vertical to ∠DEA.

Hopefully that was helpful! :)

Can i please get some help on this one ASAP!

never [62]

Answer:

This is a 4th degree polynomial!

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the polynomial starts of the a number with a 4th degree and decreases down with lower numbers. Simply put, because (x^4) has the largest degree.

Hope this helps, good luck! :)
