Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So first we need to plug in 5 as the variable a and -7 as the variable b

4(5)-(-7)

Next we multiply the 4 and the 5 together to get 20

4(5) = 20 or 4 x 5 = 20

20-(-7)

Now we subtract negative 7 from 20

20-(-7) = 27

This can also be written as 20 plus 7 as a mathematical rule states: two negatives make a positive. So:

20-(-7) = 20 + 7

Both of these are equivalent in every sense of the word and give us our final answer of 27

If the area of the larger circle is 25 times the area of the smaller circle, then the radius of the larger circle is how many ti

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

easy peasy (again)

Step-by-step explanation:

given is that, area of the larger one is 25 times more than the smaller one

so, just put it in the area formula,

let the radius of the larger circle be represented by = R

and of the smaller circle be = r

then, (pi) (R)^2 =25 x (pi) (r)^2

=> dividing the equation by pi on both sides, also taking square root on both sides

=> R = 25 r

that would be the radius of the larger circle is 25 times bigger than the smaller radius

(all u need is to pay attention to the data given in the question and the relation between all that data itself) then it'll look like magic of how the question gets solved...the answer is always in front of you, only thing is to look harder ...good luck with what you are aiming to achieve

The average wage for an electrician in CA is $25.47/hour. That is 11% above the national average. What is the national average?

yan [13]

Answer:

$22.95/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the average wage for an electrician in CA is $25.47/hour. That is 11% above the national average.

Let as consider x be the national average.

11% above the national average is

$x+\dfrac{11}{100}x=x+0.11x=1.11x$

The average wage for an electrician in CA is 11% above the national average. So,

$1.11x=25.47$

Divide both sides by 1.11.

$x=\dfrac{25.47}{1.11}$

$x=22.945945...$

$x=22.95$

Therefore, the national average is $22.95/hour.

Find the value of B - A if the graph of Ax + By = 3 passes through the point (-7,2), and is parallel to the graph of x + 3y = -5

Gnoma [55]

The required simplified value of B - A = -6.

<h3>What is simplification?</h3>

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Since, line Ax + By = 3 and x + 3y = -5 are parallel than slope of both the line will be same,
m = -1/3 = -A/B
From above
A = B/3 - - - - -(1)

Now line Ax + By = 3 passed through the point (-7, 2). So,
-7A + 2B = 3
from equation 1
-7B/3 + 2B = 3
-B/3 = 3
B = -9
Now put B in equation 1
A = -9 / 3
A = -3

Here,
B - A = -9 + 3 = -6

Thus, the required simplified value of B - A = -6.

Consider the following figure:

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

C(cone with a radius of 8 units)

Explanation:

When a triangle is spun around its center, it makes a cone (can't make a cylinder because when spun, it doesn't have 2 circular bases). The radius would be 8 because that is what makes the circular base. The 6 is just the height of the triangle and cone once it is spun, it doesn't have anything to do with the base and its radius.
