In the case of whole numbers, dividing 2 by itself would prove the conjecture false.

2/2 = 1

2/8 = 0.25

The radius of circle A is three feet less than twice the diameter of circle B. If the sun mmm of the diameters of both circles i

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Area of Circle A = 1133.54

Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sum of both circle diameters= 49 feet.

Circle A radius= Three feet less than twice the diameter of circle B.

Lets assume diameter of Circle B is "x"

∴ Circle A radius (r)= $(2x-3)$

We know, the diameter of circle is $2r$

Diameter of Circle A is $2\times (2x-3)$

Next as given sum of both circle diameter is 49 feet.

∴ $2(2x-3)+x= 49\ feet$

distributing 2 with 2x and -3

⇒ $4x-6+x= 49$

⇒ $5x-6= 49$

Adding both side by 6

⇒ $5x=55$

Cross multiplying both side.

⇒ $x=\frac{55}{5} = 11$

∴ Diameter of circle B is 11 feet.

Next, subtituting the value of x to get the value of radius for Circle A.

Radius of circle A= $(2x-3)$

⇒ Radius of circle A= $(2\times 11-3)= 22-3$

∴ Radius of circle A= 19 feet.

Area of circle= $\pi r^{2}$

Taking π= 3.14

Area of circle A= $3.14\times 19^{2} = 3.14\times 361$

∴ Area of circle A= 1133.54

Circumference of circle= 2πr

Circumference of Circle A= $2\times 3.14\times 19= 119.32$

∴ Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

You are creating an emergency fund and decide to place $415.00/month in an account that earns a 3.75 APR. How much interest accr

hoa [83]

At the end of the first full month the interest acquires is $ 1.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are looking for the interest for full month, we have to divide the APR by 12.

Because APR is the interest amount for the full year.

So 3.75 % = 3.75/100 = 0.0375

Now multiplying, we will get

415 × 0.0375/12 = $ 1.30

Provide a solution for the following equation: 3x + 2y=4

shtirl [24]

Answer:

One solution is to find x and y by doing the following:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

3x+2y=4

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

3x+2y+−2y=4+−2y

3x=−2y+4

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

x=-2/3y+4/3

Lets solve for y.

3x+2y=4

Step 1: Add -3x to both sides.

3x+2y+−3x=4+−3x

2y=−3x+4

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

y= -3/2x+2

Which procedure correctly simplifies the expression? ( 4 x − 3 ) − 2 ( x + 5 ) A. Step 1: 4 x − 2 x − 3 + 5 Step 2: 2 x + 2 B. S

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Step 1: 4 x − 3 − 2 x − 10

Step 2: 2 x − 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

(4 x − 3) − 2 (x + 5)

The following steps/ procedure are to be taken when simplifying the expression.

open the parenthesis

(4 x − 3) − 2 (x + 5)

= 4x-3 -2(x)-2(5)

= 4x-3-2x-10

collect the like terms

= 4x-2x-3-10

simplify the resulting expression

= 2x-13

Hence the procedure that correctly simplifies the expression are:

Step 1: 4 x − 3 − 2 x − 10

Step 2: 2 x − 13
