Answer:

The area decreases by 1155.52 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

What we must do is calculate the area before and after making the diameter cut.

The area of a circle is equal to:

a = pi * r ^ 2

now the diameter is equal to:

d = 2 * r

therefore r,

r = d / 2

before the cut would be

r = 96/2

r = 48

replacing in the area formula

a1 = 3.14 * 48 ^ 2

a1 = 7234.56 square meters.

after cutting the diameter decreases by 8, that is, 96 - 8 = 88, calculating the radius would be:

r = 88/2

r = 44

now calculating the new area would be:

a2 = 3.14 * 44 ^ 2

a2 = 6079.04 square meters.

now we calculate the difference

a1 - a2 = 7234.56 - 6079.04

= 1155.52 square meters

means that the area decreases by 1155.52 square meters

Is subtraction of decimals associative? If not, give a counter example.
Masteriza [31]
Associative property is only applied to addition and multiplication. Thus, it can't be applied to subtraction. This property is manifested when you get the same answer no matter where you put the parenthesis. Example of associative property is:

(50 + 2) + (92 + 6) = 52+98 = 150
50 + (2+92) + 6 = 50 + 94 + 6 = 150

Here is the counter example for the subtraction of decimals:

(3.45 - 8.92) - (1.9 - 7.3) = -5.47 - ⁻5.4 = -0.07
3.45 - (8.92 - 1.9) - 7.3 = 3.45 - 7.02 - 1.9 = -5.47
As you can see, the answers are not the same.

Solve for x: 4 over x plus 4 over quantity x squared minus 9 equals 3 over quantity x minus 3
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4/x + 4/(x²-9) = 3/(x - 3) 

4 / x + 4 / [( x - 3) ( x + 3 )] = 3 / ( x - 3 )  / * x ( x - 3 ) ( x + 3 )

Restrictions : x ≠ 0,  x ≠ - 3 ,  x ≠ 3;

4 ( x + 3 ) ( x - 3 ) + 4 x = 3 x ( x + 3 )

4 ( x² - 9 ) + 4 x = 3 x² + 9 x

4 x² - 36 + 4 x - 3 x² - 9 x = 0

x² - 5 x - 36 = 0

x² - 9 x + 4 x - 36 = 0

x ( x - 9 ) + 4 ( x - 9 ) = 0

( x - 9 ) ( x + 4 ) = 0

x - 9 = 0,  or : x + 4 = 0

Answer:

x = 9,  x = - 4
