Answer: The first day the author reaches 100 days is on day 16.

To solve this problem, you could use a graphing calculator to graph the given equation. Then, determine when this line crosses 100. It crosses when x = 15.539. Therefore, we would have to round up to 16 so it is at least 100.

You could use the quadratic equation to solve: 100 = x^2 -12x + 45

Either you will get 16. If you use the quadratic formula, make sure to only use the positive answer.

The curved part of this figure is a semicircle. What is the best approximation for the area of this figure? 18+12.125π units² 36
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

18+12.125π units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the semicircle can be found by the use Pythagoras theorem.

Δx²+Δy²=d²

Δx=3--1=4

Δy=3--6=9

d²=4²+9²

d=√(16+81)

Area=πr²/2

=π×(√(16+81)/2)²÷2

=[π×(97)/4]/2

=97π/8

=18+12.125π units²

97π/8 is equivalent to 18+12.125π units²
