Hello,

f(1)=120\\
 f(2)=-\frac{1}{2}*120=-60\\ 
 f(3)=-\frac{1}{2} *(-60)=30\\ 
 f(4)=-\frac{1}{2} *(30)=-15\\ 
 f(5)=-\frac{1}{2} *(-15)=\frac{15}{2}\\

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

37.68 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A pie company arranges its three-flavor cheesecake sampler into equal-sized slices: S represents strawberry, C represents chocolate, and P represents plain.

Diameter of the pie = 12 inches

To find: total area of the strawberry portion in the pie

Solution:

Diameter of the pie = 12 inches

Radius of the pie (r) = Diameter / 2 = \frac{12}{2}=6 inches

Area of the pie = \pi r^2=3.14(6)^2=113.04 square inches

Ratio of the strawberry portion in the pie = \frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore,

total area of the strawberry portion in the pie = \frac{1}{3}(113.04)=37.68 square inches

The point (3,0) lies on a circle with the center at the origin. What is the area of the circle to the nearest hundredth?
masya89 [10]
Radius = 3 units
Using pi as 3.132
Area of circle = \pi  r^{2} = 3.142 x 3 x 3 = 28.278 square units ≈ 28.28 square units

OR if you use the calculator and press pi x 3 x 3 = 28.27square units
