Answer is below. Look at the steps to clearly understand my answer.

Now, the first time to simplifying this to add both sides by 1.

2x - 1 = 8 → 2x - 1 + 1 = 8  + 1

Since we added both sides, we'll now simplify the problem.

Add both numbers.

  • 2x - 1 + 1 = 2x

  • 8 + 1 = 9

  • 2x = 9

Lastly, we'll divide both sides of the equation by the same term.

  • 2x = 9
  • \frac{2x}{2} =\frac{9}{2}

Now, cancel both terms that are in both the numerator and denominator.

If you look back at the fraction, 2 is in  the numerator and denominator, so we'll cancel those terms.

When you cancelled the terms, you should get x = 9/2.

Any questions? Comment below.

Answer:

Hi, there the answer is x=\frac{9}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add 1 to both sides.

2x−1+1=8+1

2x=9

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2x /2 = 9 /2

x= 9 /2

Hope This Helps :)

This high school stadium contains a track that surrounds a soccer field. The soccer field is 100 yards long and 70 yards
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Given : The high school stadium contains a track that surrounds a soccer field. The soccer field is 100 yards long and 70 yards wide.

The school decided to cover the semicircles with grass to create a space for stretching and other activities.

To Find: area of one of the semicircles at either end of the track

How many square yards of grass will the school need to cover the entire circle?

Solution:

Diameter of semicircle = 70 yards

Radius of semicircle = 70/2 = 35 yards

Area of semicircle at one end = (1/2)πr²

= (1/2)(22/7)35²

= 1,925 sq yards

area of one of the semicircles at either end of the track = 1,925 sq yards

square yards of grass will the school need to cover the entire circle

= 2 x   1,925

= 3850 sq yards

distance around one of the semicircles at either end of the soccer field = πr  = (22/7) 35 = 110 yards

distance around the inner lane of the track  = 100 + 100 + 110 + 110

= 420 yards

Answer:

a) p = 88\,cm, b) p = 24\,cm, c) p \approx 25.424\,m, d) p \approx 39.368\,cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The perimeter is the sum of the three sides of the internal square and the remaining sides of the external rectangle, that is:

p = 3\times 8\,cm + 2\times 4\,cm +2\times 20\,cm + 16\,cm

p = 88\,cm

b) The perimeter is the sum of the two sides of the internal triangle and the remaining sides of the external rectangle, that is:

p = 2\times 4\,cm + 2\times 6\,cm + 4\,cm

p = 24\,cm

c) The perimeter is the sum of the two sides of the circular section and the three sides of the lower rectangle, that is:

p = \frac{\pi}{2}\times 6\,cm + 8\,cm + 6\,cm + 2\,cm

p \approx 25.424\,m

d) The perimeter is the sum of the external sides of the triangle and rectangle, that is:

p = 10\,cm + 12\,cm + 12\,cm + 12\,cm - \sqrt{(12\,cm)^{2}-(10\,cm)^{2}}

p \approx 39.368\,cm
