If I have eight numbers and i am tasked to decide which of the set of given numbers is the smallest comparing 2 numbers at a time, I will have 28 comparisons in all. Trying all combinations for the first number, you have 7. Trying all combinations for the second number nit including its comparison to the first number (because it will be redundant), you will have 6 comparisons an so on. Adding it all up, you have 7+6+5+4+3+2+1=28.

Determine the volume of the shaded area.
vovikov84 [41]

The shaded area in the image is 86.1 square inches.

<h3>How to get the shaded area?</h3>

Remember that for a circle of diameter D, the area is given by:

A = pi*(D/2)²

Where pi = 3.14, and here we have half-circles, so we need to add a factor 0.5

The area of the shaded figure, the area of the shaded figure will be the area of the half circle with diameter of 17in minus the area of the half circle with a diameter of 8.5 in, so the area is:

area = 0.5*3.14*(17in/2)² - 0.5*3.14*(8.5in/2)² = 86.1 in²
