In order to make a circular sign, you decide to use a square piece of plywood and trim off as little of the area as possible. Wr

The area of the square is W^2

The area of the circle will be PI * radius^2
where the radius = (W/2)
So, the circle area = PI * (W/2)^2 = PI * (W^2 /4)

If square has a 12 inch side its area is 144 square inches.
The circle would be PI * (144 / 4) = PI * 36 =

So, A = (W^2) - (PI * (W^2 / 4)

Which of the following points lies on the line perpendicular to
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals. if u don't know what opposite reciprocals are, according to study.com they are, "The term opposite reciprocals refers to two numbers that have opposite signs and are flipped fractions of each other." for example, 1/2 and -2 are opposite reciprocals.

also recall that the formula to find the slope of a line is m=y2-y1/x2-x1

to solve this problem, we need to go through all of the options and find the slope of that line using the given point and point (0,4). After that, we need to check if that slope is equal to 1. One is the opposite reciprocal of -1, and -1 is the slope of the equation y= -x+4. if the slope is equal to 1, the line will be perpendicular to the line y= -x+4.

lets do the math now:

option a)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=12-4/6-0

m=8/6

m=4/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is 4/3, which isnt equal to 1

option b)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=0-4/6-0

m=-4/6

m= -2/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is -2/3, which isnt equal to 1

--------------

ok girl i dont wanna do all the rest of the calculations. just keep doing the same thing with all the other options until you find something that has a slope of 1.

toodles! :)

If there are 360 grams of radioactive material with a half-life of 8 hours, how much of the radioactive material will be left af
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

There will be 22.5 grams left after 32 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A half-life is how long it takes for half of the amount to go away. In this case, we see that we have two half-life periods worth, which you can determine by dividing the total time by the half-life time.

32hrs/8hrs = 4 half lives.

Now we can raise 1/2 to the power of how many half lives we have (2). Then we multiply that by the amount in the sample.

(1/2)^4 * 360

1/16 * 360

22.5 grams

And this is an exponential function.

fiasKO [112]
\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_{y=-7}^{y=7}\int_{x=-\sqrt{49-y^2}}^{x=0}\int_{z=x}^{z=0}\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

Converting to cylindrical coordinates, the integral is equivalent to

\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_{\theta=\pi/2}^{\theta=3\pi/2}\int_{r=0}^{r=7}\int_{z=r\cos\theta}^{z=0}r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta
=\displaystyle\int_{\theta=\pi/2}^{\theta=3\pi/2}\int_{r=0}^{r=7}-r^2\cos\theta\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta
=-\displaystyle\left(\int_{\theta=\pi/2}^{3\pi/2}\cos\theta\,\mathrm d\theta\right)\left(\int_{r=0}^{r=7}r^2\,\mathrm dr\right)
=\dfrac{2\times7^3}3=\dfrac{686}3
