Question
If 6 • 2k = 36 , what is the value of 4 - 2k ?
- 12
- 10
- 6
- 1
Hint:
Hint:
We are given an equation in one variable and we need to find the value of an expression containing that variable. First, we find the value of k from the given equation and then input the value in 4 - 2k .
To find the value of k , we simplify the equation To simplify , we add, subtract, multiply and divide by the same number on both sides.
The correct answer is: 10
Given equation is
Dividing both sides by 6, we get,
Further, dividing by 2 on both sides, we get,
Which gives us
Now, we use this value of k to find the value of the expression 4k -2
We have,
Thus,
The correct option is B)10
Note:
Here, first we divide by 6 and then again divide by 2. We could also have multiplied 6 and 2 to get 12 and then divide the equation throughout by 12. We can divide both sides by any number except 0. A fraction with 0 as denominator is not defined.

Segments OA and OB are radii of the semicircle above. Arc AB has length 3π and OA = 5. What is the value of x ?
A semicircle is formed when a lining passing through the center touches the circle's two ends. As a result of joining two semicircles, we get a circular shape.
A circle is a collection of points equidistant from the circle's center. A radius is a common distance between the center of a circle and its point.
¶Area of a semicircle = 1/2 (π r2)
where r is the radius.
The value is 3.14 or 22/7.

The table above shows two pairs of values for the linear function f. The function can be written in the form , where a and b are constants. What is the value of a + b ?
Note:
We can take a different approach to solving the linear equations. The above method is called method of elimination. We may also use the method of substitution; which is finding the values one variable, say a , in terms of b , from the first equation and replacing this value in the second equation to get a linear equation in one variable , b . Then solve it to find b, and use it in the previous equation to find a.
