Bisects means to separate in equal parts, meaning each part is equal. This means the equations on each side of the line are equal. Once you equate them, you combine like terms finding your answer.
1) 2x+ 3=x+7
-x -x
x+3 = 7
-3 -3
Answer: x=4 (do this for the others)
2) x=7/2
3) x=5/2
Hey there!
We are looking for the circumference of the circle, which is the distance around it. We are given the area, which is the radius squared times pi.
First, we need to undo the area to find our radius.
113.04/3.14=36
We square root this to find the radius.
√36=6
Our radius is six. To find the circumference, we need to multiply the diameter by pi. The diameter is twice the radius.
6*2=12
12*3.14=37.68
Therefore, we will need 37.68 feet of trim to around the edge of the quilt.
I hope this helps!
