Y= 6 + x
Plug the numbers into the equations, for each ordered pair substitute the first number (2) for x and the second number (8) for y...
Do the same thing with (6, 12) and if the number on each side of the equals sign is the same for both ordered pairs then you have the solution.
Hope that helps!
It is not as tough a problem as it seems to you. You can easily grasp the problem, once it is done,
9 5/9 - 6 5/6 = 86/9 - 41/6
= (172 - 123)/18
= 49/18
= 2 13/18
I hope that the simplification process is simple enough for you to understand. I also hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.
The diameter of the semicircle is 16 feet.
He calculates that he needs to buy abut 25.12 feet of fencing.
To find amount of fencing we find the circumference of semicircle
Circumference of semicircle = 
Where d is the diameter of the circle
d= 16 given and value of pi is 3.14
Circumference of semicircle = 
=25.12 + 16 = 41.12 feet
Scott's calculation was wrong because he forgot to add the diameter d
Circumference of circle is half way of circle plus the diameter of circle.
Correct amount of fencing = 41.12 feet
To answer, determine the amount of paint that is needed in order to cover the whole of the sign. If we use the ratio and proportion and letting x be the unknown amount. The equation would be,
1/2 / 1/3 = x / 1
The value of x from the equation is equal to 1.5. Thus, the answer is letter D. 3/2 cups.
