Answer:

Represent the longer piece of the rope as (18 + x) and the shorter piece as x. The rope is 100 feet long, so:

(18 + x) + x = 100      Set up equation

18 + x + x = 100        Arrange like terms

18 + 2x = 100            Combine like terms

2x = 82                     Subtract 18 from both sides

x = 41                       Divide both sides by 2

Longer rope length: 12+ 31 =43 feet

Shorter rope length: 57 feet

Check: 59 + 41 = 100 feet

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

100 divided by 2 = 50

rope a 50 divided by 10 = 5 - 2 = 3 ft

rope b 100 - 3 = 97

change 9 to 5

and change 3 to 43

a = 43

b = 57

Which of the following angles is coterminal with -4pi/3?<br><br> -2pi/3<br> -pi/3<br> pi/3<br> 2pi/3
PolarNik [594]
Coterminal angles are angles that end in the same position on a unit circle.

We can find angles that are coterminal to -4pi/3 by adding and subtracting 2pi.

-4pi/3 + 2pi = 2pi/3

The answer is 2pi/3

Which of the following could be used to calculate the area of a sector in the circle shown below
lara [203]

Answer:

Therefore the Last option is correct

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius = r = 8 in

θ = 42°

To Find:

Area of Sector = ?

Solution:

We know that

\textrm{Area of Sector}=\pi (Radius)^{2}\times \frac{\theta}{360}

Substituting the given values in the formula we get

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})

Which is the required Answer.

Therefore the Last option is correct

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})
