Explain and show how you would estimate 0.5 x 4.26?
o.25

The question is so simple that you can do the exact answer rather than estimate.
Multiplication by 0.5 is the same as division by 2. So the question is, effectively: 4.26/2
4/2 = 2
decimal point
2/2 = 1
6/2 = 3
So the exact answer is 2.13
How would you solve this equation 2 plus 2 divided by x divided by 2 plus 2 divided by x squared?
2+2/x/2+2/x^2=2+1/x+2/x^2
X plus 9 equals 26 which numbers belong to this solution?
x + 9 = 26
Only one lonely number belongs to the group of solutions of this equation.
The number is 17.
(x+6)(X+20)
How do you work out y equals 3x plus 1?
What is a solution of -8x plus 5 is equal to or greater than 11?
-8x + 5 ≥ 11
Subtract 5 from both sides: -8x ≥ 6
Divide both sides by -8 (remember that dividing by a negative number changes the direction of the inequality): x ≤ -6/8 = -0.75
True.
You can't simplify this any further. y=-x is the equation of a line.
What line would be perperndicular to y equals negative 5x plus 4?
Please note that there are infinitely many solutions. The slopes of two perpendicular lines have a product of minus 1. The line is in slope-intercept form, so it is easy to read off the slope: -5. The line perpendicular to it must have a slope of -1 / -5, or 1/5. In other words, the equation of the perpendicular line is y = (1/5)x + c; you can replace c with any number you want.
Solve this equation 0.5x- -x plus 3 x-5?
There appears to be no equation in the question: only some disjoint expressions. Expressions cannot be solved.
49/16 = (7^2)/(4^2) = (7/4)^2 = ((4/7)^-1)^2 = (4/7)^-2
Thus as (4/7)^2 = 49/16 and 49/16 = (4/7)^-2
(4/7)^x = (4/7)^-2
Therefore x = -2.
