Exercise 53 Page 701

Recall that π is approximately 3.14.

34.6

Practice makes perfect
To find the value of x, we should first gather all of the variable terms on one side of the equation and all of the constant terms on the other side using the Properties of Equality. In this case, the variable term is already on the right-hand side of the equation, so the only thing we need to do is to evaluate it. 108.6/π=x Remembering that π is approximately 3.14, we can substitute it for π and find the value of x.
108.6/π=x

π ≈ 3.14

108.6/3.14≈ x
x≈ 108.6/3.14
x≈ 34.58598...
x≈ 34.6
