The number is 6. The equation would be 8x - 12 = 36. You add over the 12 to the 36 to get 48. Then when you do 8x divided by 48, you get x = 6. Therefore, the number the problem is asking for is 6.

1/2 of Ila’s workspace is covered in paper. 1/3 of the paper is covered in yellow sticky notes. What fraction of Ila’s workspace

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 1/2 of Ila’s work-space is covered in paper. 1/3 of the paper is covered in yellow sticky notes.

Ila’s work-space is covered in yellow sticky notes would be 1/3 of 1/2.

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}$

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1\times1}{3\times 2}$

$\text{Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes}=\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{6}$ of Ila’s workspace is covered in yellow sticky notes.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=34}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

(h, k) - center

r - radius

We have the endpoints of the diameter: (-1, 6) and (5, -4).

Midpoint of diameter is a center of a circle.

The formula of a midpoint:

$\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2};\ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

Substitute:

$h=\dfrac{-1+5}{2}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2\\\\k=\dfrac{6+(-4)}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1$

The center is in (2, 1).

The radius length is equal to the distance between the center of the circle and the endpoint of the diameter.

The formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Substitute the coordinates of the points (2, 1) and (5, -4):

$r=\sqrt{(5-2)^2+(-4-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{9+25}=\sqrt{34}$

Finally we have:

$(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=(\sqrt{34})^2$
