Question

please help solve v=1//2 x d2 for d

Answer 1

\[\large \large V = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } * d^2 \] Does it look like that?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

You want to do inverse order of oepration to find d. So what do you do first?

Answer 4

do I change the order of operation ?

Answer 5

Yes. Instead of doing the parenthesis, exponent, etc.; you would be doing addition, subtraction, etc.
So what do you do first?

Answer 6

1/2 + 1/1?

Answer 7

Oh. You are correct that we want to get rid of 1/2.
But (1/2) + (1/1) Does not cancel out: To cancel out (1/2), you would want to multiply the fraction by its reciprocal.
