How to find the area of a circle with the circumference?

You can abuse the fact that PI is Circumference/diameter.

This means that, to find the diameter, you would have to do the following:

PI = circumference/diameter
(You can choose the number of decimals of PI, based on how accurate you want the diameter. 3.14 tends to work for most cases.)

After youve done this, you would be able to find the diameter like this:
PI*diameter = circumference
diameter = Circumference/pi

Then, you can use the diameter/2 to find the radius, like this:
radius = diameter/2

After this, you can simply use the formula for the surface area of a circle, like this:

SA = PI*Radius^2

I might be able to add an example, if really needed.

In one year, a school uses 13,270 pieces of white paper, 6,570 fewer pieces of blue paper than white paper, and 2,600 fewer piec

umka21 [38]

Answer:

24,070 the school uses in all

Step-by-step explanation:

You subtract 13,270 by 6,570 and you get 6,700 pieces of blue paper. Then, you subtract 6,700 by 2,600 and you get 4,100 pieces of yellow paper. Finally, you add the total of pieces of white, blue, and yellow paper and you get 24,070 for the total.

In general. A clock that is 3 seconds slow but keeps consistent time will be more accurate than a clock that loses 1 second ever

Pani-rosa [81]

True.

If the clock loses 1 second every hour that passes then after 4 hours it will be 4 seconds off, 5 hours will be 5 seconds off, etc. It would continue and turn into minutes and hours off.

Find the slope of the line passing through (-4,6) and (10,8)

muminat

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the slope, we must find the change in y over the change in x:

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} } = \frac{8-6}{10--4}$ = 2/14= 1/7.
