The construction steps are in the following order:
A, D, B, C.
Hope this helps!
<u>Step by Step Explanation:</u>
16. x - 4 = 4
Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 4 to both sides:
x - 4 (+4) = 4 (+4)
x = 4 + 4
x = 8
17. a/4 = 4
Isolate the variable (a). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 4 to both sides:
(a/4)(4) = (4)(4)
a = (4)(4)
a = 16
18. y * 20 = 30
Isolate the variable (y). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Divide 20 from both sides.
(y *20)/20 = (30)/20
y = 30/20
y = 3/2 or 1.5
19. x/5 = 20
Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 5 to both sides
(x/5)(5) = (20)(5)
x = (20)(5)
x = 100

The answer is 284 with the remainder of 2
Answer:
check your math
Step-by-step explanation:
The first subtraction was correct:
36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4
The second subtraction needs to be revisited.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4
__
You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4
The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.
_____
The length of the first cut piece was 21 3/4 inches.
