Simplify both to 1/2 because both numerators are half of their denominators. Then multiply straight across to 1/4.
A hexagon can be considered to be 6 triangles with a common vertex.
Area of 1 of the triangle = 1/2 * 2 * side length
Area of whole hexagon is 6 times this.
I have attached the correct answer. Brainliest will be much appreciated!
You started out with 260, and increased to 430.
The amount you increased was (430 - 260) = 170
170 is (170/260) = <em>65.4%</em> of what you started with.
============================
Another way:
The new amount is (430/260) of the old amount.
430 / 260 = 1.654 = 165.4%
The original amount was 260.
You started with 100% of it.
You ended up with 165.4% of it.
That's an increase of 65.4% .
Hey there!!
Given equation :
... 3x - 2 + 5x = 4x + 5 - 2x
Combining like terms :
... 8x - 2 = 2x - 5
Subtracting 2x on both sides :
... 6x - 2 = - 5
Adding 2 on both sides :
... 6x = - 3
Dividing by 6 on both sides :
... x = -1/2 = -0.5
Hence, the answer is -0.5
Hope my answer helps!
