let 'N' be a substitute for a number example 1/3(n)=n-12 then now we can multiply by 3 so we can get it n=3n-36 now get n onto the same side of the equation so we get 2n=36.after that divide by 2 we get n=18.

In the diagram of O, m∠JOK = 60° and OJ = 6 in. What is the exact area of the shaded region?

Sophie [7]

Answer: 6π

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is π r².

Area of a section of a circle is π r² × the section of the circle.

$A=\pi r^2\bigg(\dfrac{\theta}{360^o}\bigg)$

Given: r = 6, Ф = 60°

$A=\pi (6)^2\bigg(\dfrac{60^o}{360^o}\bigg)\\\\\\.\quad =\pi (6)^2\bigg(\dfrac{1}{6}\bigg)\\\\\\.\quad =6\pi$

3m^3 -2m^2 + 4m + 2

To factor the first problem you have to divide all by 4

The second one is m - √16m +8

To factor the second problem you have to square root it all
