Provide the measurements of the court in the book, please.
Do 1/3 x 1/2 to get 1/6, or you could think, 1/3 divided by 2, which would equal 1/3 x 1/2
So these are basically isolating the variables.
The first equation is 3g + 5 =17.
In order to isolate the variable, we would have to get g by itself, that means 5 would have to go. In order to do this, we would do the opposite. Since it is positive 5 we would add negative 5, in order for it to disappear. This works because a positive 5 and negative 5 cancel each other out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation you have to do to the other, since we subtract 5 on one side we have to subtract 5 on the other. Therefore we would do 17-5.
Now we have 3g=12
We know that 3g is basically 3 multiplied by g. The opposite of multiplication is division.Therefore we would divide by 3 on both sides.
The answer to the first question would be g= 4.
And if you want to check if your answer is correct you plug the value in.
So
3(4) + 5 =17
The formula for the area of a sector in radians is
, where theta is the angle in radians. For us, the formula looks like this:
. Doing all the multiplication on that gives us
. Multiplying in pi and rounding to the nearest tenth gives us an area of 76.3 meters squared. You can use the formula for the area of a sector with the angle in degrees as well. Just replace the 360 degrees with 2pi and it works the exact same way.
