Hey there!

"One half of a number" will be a number (x) divided by 2. This can also be shown as "0.5x" or "1/2x", whichever you prefer.

"...decreased by 16" will be "– 16", making your full equation 0.5x – 16. Remember that terms like remainder, difference, and fewer will always mean subtraction.

Hope this helped you out! :-)

1/2x-16 is an equation that can be used to represent this. The 1/2x represents the one half of a number and the -16 represents the decreased by 16.

Which of the following is not a solution to the system of linear equations below? 5y=3x+15 6x=10y-30 A. (5, 6) B. (–15, 12) C. (

Alecsey [184]

Option B is not a solution.

5y=3x+15
5(12)=3(-15)+15
60=-45+15
60≠-30

Hope I didn't mess up for your sake!

The semi circle and isosceles triangle have the same base AB and the same area. Find angle x. Show workout.

Nina [5.8K]

$r= \frac{AB}{2} \\ \\A_{semi\:circle }=\frac{r^2\pi}{2} \\ \\A_{triangle}=A_{semi\:circle }=\frac{r^2\pi}{2} \\ \\A_{triangle}= \frac{2r\times h}{2} =rh \\ \\\frac{r^2\pi}{2}= rh \\ \\h=\frac{r\pi}{2} \\ \\ \tan{x}= \frac{h}{r} = \frac{\frac{r\pi}{2}}{r} =\frac{\pi}{2} \\ \\x=\arctan{\frac{\pi}{2}}
\\
\\x \approx 57.52^o$
