The answers are A and D.
The numbers that you cannot simplify without having a radical in the answer are irrational numbers.
√(4/16) = 1/4 or -1/4, rational number
√(9/16) = 3/4 or -3/4, rational number
√(9/4) = 3/2 or -3/2, rational number
√(3/16) = √(3)/4, NOT a rational number, cannot remove radical
√(3/4) = √(3)/2, NOT a rational number, cannot remove radical
Hello!
Judging on the questions you have provided I have come to the conclusion that to solve all of these you need to find the value of x by isolating it all on one side and simplifying.
For question #1 the first step would be to subtract 6 from each side.
The outcome should be -x=-6-12, and if simplified -x=-18.
Next, you want to divide each side by -1 because x needs to always be positive when finding the solution.
Your answer for #1 should be X=18, D.
For question #2 the first step you should take is to subtract 1.33 from each side to isolate x.
The outcome should be x=7.82-1.33, and if simplified x=6.49.
Thus your answer for #2 should be X=6.49, A.
For question #3 the first step you should take to approaching the equation is to isolate x by adding 15.99 towards each side of the equation.
The outcome should be x=58.06+15.99, and if simplified x=74.05.
Thus your answer for question #3 should be X=74.05, D.
Lastly, for question #4 the first step you should take towards isolating x is to divide the entire equation by 1.32.
Your outcome should be x= 6.8
Thus, your answer for the last question, #4, should be X=6.8, C.
Hope this helped!

Answer: ? = 72
Step-by-step explanation:
We will set up a proportion to solve.
Now, we will cross-multiply.
? * 35 = 56 * 45
35? = 2,520
? = 72
I saw the image that should have been posted with this word problem.
The rolls of wrapping paper is cylindrical in shape.
Roll A : length = 30 inches ; diameter = 3 inches
Roll B : length = 24 inches ; diameter = unknown
Lateral surface area = 2 π r h
Lateral Surface area of Roll A = Lateral Surface area of Roll B
2 * 3.14 * 1.5in * 30in = 2 * 3.14 * r * 24 in
282.60 in² = 150.72 in * r
282.60 in² / 150.72 in = r
1.875 in = r
diameter is 2 times the radius = 1.875 in * 2 = 3.75 inches
The diameter of Roll B is 3.75 inches.
