If you graph out y = x^2 - 1, you'll see that it is a curved parabola. It is not a straight line. So visually this shows the equation is not linear. It's considered nonlinear.
Algebraically, the given equation does not fit the form y = mx+b which is slope intercept form. So this is more confirmation that we do not have a linear function.
Answer:
Approximately 117.81 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the whole circle
A=πr²
A=π(15)²
A=706.86 ft²
Now you need to find the area of the garden covered in roses, so take the total degrees in a circle (360) and divide it by the degrees of the roses (60).
360/60=6
Take the area of the whole circle (706.86 ft²) and divide it by the number you just got (6). The number you get will be the area of the rose section.
706.86/6= 117.81 ft²
<span>A 15° sector in a circle has an area of 11.9 m2. What is the area of the circle?
The area of the circle will be found as follows:
the fraction of the sector=15/360=1/24
the area of the circle will be:
area=(fraction of the circle)/(fraction of the sector)*(area of the sector)
=1/(1/24)</span>×11.9
=285.6 m²
