<span>1/4(x + 16) - x =
First, distribute the 1/4.
= 1/4x + 1/4 * 16 - x
= 1/4x + 4 - x
= 1/4x + 4 - 4/4x
= 1/4x - 4/4x + 4
= -3/4x + 4

Each time you are subtracting 1/9 to get the next term
For example, going from term 2 to term 3 is a difference of -1/9
(1 8/9) - (1/9) = 1 7/9
which is why the answer is choice A
Formula for the area of a circle: A = pi * r^2
A semi-circle is half of a circle. So, we will need to divide the area of the total circle by 2 to find the area of a semi-circle.
r = d / 2
r = 6 / 2 = 3
A = pi * 9
A = 9pi
Semi-circle:
A = 9pi / 2
A = 4.5 pi cm^2 or 14.14 cm^2
Hope this helps!! :)
