Answer:

4x - 9 = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent 4 times any numbers as 4x.

Then they want 9 less than 4x. This means that they want 4x but 9 units shorter. So to make 4x 9 units shorter, you would take away 9 from 4x which is represented as 4x - 9. A common mistake is writing this as 9 - 4x.

They also want 4x - 9 to be the same, or equal to, 19. So to equate both expression, you would add the equals sign between both expressions.

Find the circumference and area of a circle having a diameter of 7 1/2 ft. Use 3.14 for pi

valina [46]

Answer:

circumference= 32.56

area= 44.18

Step-by-step explanation:

for area: (A=pi×r^2) your diameter is 7.5 so you divide that by 2 to get your radius. and the radius is 3.75. then you are going to do 3.75^2 to get 14.1 then you are going to multiply 14.1 by pi to get 44.18

for circumference: (2×pi×r) you are going to take the same radius for the area and simply multiply that by pi (3.14) to get 11.78, then you are going to multiply 11.78×2 and that equals 23.56
