6 feet because 8 / 12 reduces to 2 / 3 and you multiply 2 times 3

Hi there.

So, we've got the dimensions. 

<em>l</em> = 12, <em /><em>w</em> = 8

We know that the width has been divided by 4. That means we also divide the length by 4. This gives us the new dimensions of:

<em>l</em> = 3, <em>w</em> = 2

A = <em>lw</em> 

3 · 2 = 6 ft²

Cheers~

(x + 12)2 + (y+13)2 = 36 <br><br> What’s the steps to get the center and the radius?
Anon25 [30]

Step-by-step explanation:

{(x + 12)}^{2}  +  {(y + 13)}^{2}  =  36 \\ {(x + 12)}^{2}  +  {(y + 13)}^{2}  =   {6}^{2}  \\ equating \: it \: with \:  \\  {(x  - h)}^{2}  +  {(y  - k)}^{2}  =   {r}^{2} \\  - h = 12 \implies \: h =  - 12 \\  - k= 13 \implies \: k =  - 13 \\ \therefore \: center \:  = (h, \:  \: k) =  ( - 12, \:  \:  - 13)    \\ \:  \:  \:  \: {r}^{2}  =  {6}^{2} \implies \: radius \: (r)=  6 \: units

fred had a tray of brownies for his birthday. he ate 1/6 of the brownies by himself and his family ate 1/3 of the brownies how m
snow_lady [41]

We want to know how many brownmies did Fred and his family eat together.

We will call to the total of the brownies by 1. On this case, after Fred ate 1/3 of the brownies, he will have:

1-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3-1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}

This means that he has left 2/3 of the brownies. After his family ate 1/6 of the brownies:

\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{4}{6}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

This means they will have left 1/2 of the tray of brownies, and that they ate half of it.
