The answer should be "add -9"

Regardless of which action you choose, you should include "to both sides."
For example, you could add -9 to both sides, or you could subtract 9 from both sides (same result).  Adding 3x to both sides results in 

<span>5 - 3x = 2x + 9</span>
   + 3x = 3x
----------------------
5 = 5x + 9

We need to solve for x.  The best way to do this is to subtract 9 from both sides, resulting in -4 = 5x, so that x = -4/5 (final answer).

Answer:

The radius is 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is :  \p*radius^2

To work out the length of the radius you would first need to divide the area of  78.5 cm by pi (pi=3.14), this gives you 25cm^2\\. This is because by dividing the area by pi we are isolating the value of the radius squared.

The final step is to work out the radius. You can do this by finding the square root of the radius squared which is 25, this gives you 5 cm. This means that the radius is 5 cm. This is because the square root is a number that when squared equals that number.

1) Divide 78.5 by pi.

78.5/\pi=25cm^2

2) Find the square root of 25 cm squared.

\sqrt{25} =5 cm

In this question pi is 3.14

Solve the following inequality: –1 6(–1 – 3x) &gt; –39 – 2x
jeka57 [31]
If you would like to solve the inequality <span>–1 + 6 * (–1 – 3x) > –39 – 2x, you can do this using the following steps:

</span>–1 + 6 * (–1 – 3x) > –39 – 2x
-1 - 6 - 18x > -39 - 2x
-7 + 39 > -2x + 18x
32 > 16x
32/16 > x
x < 2

The correct result would be x < 2.
