Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

3(4x - 5) - 4x + 1 = -6

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 3:                    12x - 15 - 4x + 1 = -6
  2. Combine like terms:       8x - 14 = -6
  3. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                 8x = 8
  4. Isolate <em>x</em>:                          x = 1

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    3(4(1) - 5) - 4(1) + 1 = -6
  2. Multiply:                               3(4 - 5) - 4 + 1 = -6
  3. Subtract:                              3(-1) - 4 + 1 = -6
  4. Multiply:                               -3 - 4 + 1 = -6
  5. Subtract:                              -7 + 1 = -6
  6. Add:                                     -6 = -6

Here we see that -6 does indeed equal -6.

∴ x = 1 is the solution to the equation.

Which expression represents the area of the shaded region?
irina1246 [14]

Given:

A circle of radius r inscribed in a square.

To find:

The expression for the area of the shaded region.

Solution:

Area of a circle is:

A_1=\pi r^2

Where, r is the radius of the circle.

Area of a square is:

Area=a^2

Where, a is the side of the square.

A circle of radius r inscribed in a square. So, diameter of the circle is equal to the side of the square.

a=2a

So, the area of the square is:

A_2=(2r)^2

A_2=4r^2

Now, the area of the shaded region is the difference between the area of the square and the area of the circle.

A=A_2-A_1

A=4r^2-\pi r^2

A=4r^2-\pi r^2

A=r^2(4-\pi )

Therefore, the correct option is (a).
