Complete question:

Write the verbal statement as an equation using x as a variable. Then solve. 2 more than 3 times a number is 17.

The required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5

Let the unknown number be x

3 times a number is expressed as 3x
2 more than3 times the number is 3x + 2

If the result is equivalent to 17, the required expression will be 3x + 2 = 17

Solve the resulting expression:

3x + 2 = 17

3x = 17 - 2

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Hence the required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5

Question

What is the height of the shape formed by the sectors shown below? A circle is cut into 8 equal sections. The sections are arranged into the shape of a parallelogram with a base of pi r and height of question mark.

a. r

b. d

c. pi times r

d Pi times d

Answer:

a. r

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram shown, we can see the sections are divided into 8 and each has a radius of r

The 8 sections from the circle is used to form the a parallelogram.

If we take a look at the diagram of the parallelogram closely, we can see definitely that it still showing the divided 8 equal sections using to form it.

Hence, the height of the parallelogram = the radius of the circle.

Therefore, height of the shape formed by the sectors is r
