Answer:

A.3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 - 1/14

We need to get a common denominator of 14

1/2 * 7/7 = 7/14

7/14 - 1/14 = 6/14

We can simplify by dividing the top and bottom by 2

alekssr [168]

Answer:

24ft is the length of the shadow of the telephone pole

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first what I did was divide 15 by 4 which equaled to 3.75, after that the question said that the telephone pole was now 90 feet tall so I just had to divide 90 by 3.75 and then 24 ft long was the final answer. I hope that helps

The area of the circle is 144π m2<br><br> What is the diameter of the circle?

Over [174]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

Area of Circle = $\pi r^2$

$\pi = pi \\r = radius$

They told us that for this circle, the area is $144\pi m^2$

If you put it back into the formula for area of a circle we get:

Area of Circle = $\pi r^2$

$144\pi = \pi r^2$

Divide both sides by $\pi$ .

144 = $r^2$

Now we want to solve for r (r = radius).

You need to square root each side

$\sqrt{144} = \sqrt{r^2}$

$12 = r$

So now we know the radius, $r = 12$ metres

Also remember that

Diameter = $2r$

So,

Diameter = 2 times 12 = 24 metres
