Mathematics

AveGali [126]3 years ago

You have to translate the statement into a mathematical expression...

Six times the number of cattle, if we let c be the number of cattle is:

6c

Less 87 means to subtract 87 so

6c-87

is 999 means

=999

so all together we have:

6c-87=999  now we need to isolate the variable by itself on one side of the equal sign....

6c-87=999  add 87 to both sides

6c=1086  divide both sides by 6

c=181

So there are 181 cattle.

What is the approximate surface area of the sphere 15yd?
tekilochka [14]
<span>The surface area of a sphere is equal to [4 x Pi x R^2]. In other words, four multiplied by 3.14 multiplied by the radius squared. If the radius of a sphere is 15 yards, the approximate surface area is [4 x 3.14 x (15x15)] = [12.5 x 225] = [2,812 yd^2]. The surface area of a sphere with radius 15 yd is approximately 2,800 yards.</span>
