Answer:

616 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is equal to pi × r^2. In this case, they have asked that you substitute 3.14 or 22/7 for pi, so I will be using 22/7, instead.

Diameter is equal to 2r; to find the radius, simply divide 28 by two. This gives us a radius of 14.

Multiply 14 squared by 22/7:

(22/7)(14^2)

This gives us (22/7)(196); (4312/7); 616.

Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 616 square centimeters.

What is the solution to this inequality: -4(3x-5)<2(3x+4)​
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

x > 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x - 5) < 2(3x + 4)​

Divide both sides by 2.

-2(3x - 5) < 3x + 4

Distribute on the left side.

-6x + 10 < 3x + 4

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-9x + 10 < 4

Subtract 10 from both sides.

-9x < - 6

Divide both sides by -9. Remember that when you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign changes direction.

x > (-6)/(-9)

x > 6/9

x > 2/3

plzzz help smart people, its math will mark branilyest (DONT ANSWER IF YOU DONT KNOW THIS TYPE OF MATH PLZZ SHOW WORK)
sveta [45]

Answer:

6) 15

7)5

8)120 degrees

9)60 degrees

10)9

Step-by-step explanation:

GHIJ is a parallelogram.

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.

3y - 1 = 2y + 1

3y - 2y = 1 + 1

y = 2

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.

4x + 3 = x + 12

4x - x = 12 - 3

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

6)GH = ?

GH = 4x + 3

GH = 4(3) + 3

= 12 + 3

= 15

therefore, GH = 15

7) HI = ?

HI = 2y + 1

= 2(2) + 1

= 4 +1

= 5

therefore, HI = 5

Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.

8) m(angle I) = 120 degrees...... (given)

therefore, measure of angle G = measure of angle I

therefore, m(angle G) = 120 degrees

Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.

9) m(angle I) + m(angle J) = 180 degrees

120 + m (angle J) = 180

m(angle J) = 180 - 120

= 60 degrees.

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

10) JK = 9 .........( given)

JK = HK

therefore, HK = 9
