assume the square side = x, then its circumference = 4x

so the circle circumference would be 89 - 4x which equals 2pi r

so x = 1/4 (89 - 2pi r)

now A(r) = x^2 + pi r^2

= [1/4 (89 - 2pi r)]^2 + pi r^2

diff. w.r.to r u get:

dA/dr = 1/8 (89-2 pi r)(-2 pi) + 2 pi r = 0

2pi r - pi/4 (89-2 pi r) = 0

2r - (89 - 2 pi r)/4 = 0

2r + pi r /2 = 89/4

mult. the eqn by 4 and solve for r u get:

r = 89 / (8 + 2pi) cm

and the circle circumference = 2 pi r = 2 pi 89 / (8 + 2pi)

= 178 pi / (8 + 2pi) = 89 pi /(4 + pi) cm

hope this helps

Y=−2x+4y, equals, minus, 2, x, plus, 4
vlabodo [156]

The missing value of the solution to the equation y = −2x + 4, is: 3.

<h3>What is the Solution to an Equation?</h3>

The solution to a given equation, is the x and y values of an ordered pair that would make the equation true, if we substitute their values into the equation.

Given the equation, y = -2x + 4, and we have (x, -2) as the solution where the value of x is the missing value in the solution, to find the value of x, substitute y = -2 into the equation and solve for x:

-2 = -2x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides

-2 - 4 = -2x + 4 - 4 (subtraction property of equality)

-6 = -2x

Divide both sides by -2

-6/-2 = -2x/-2

3 = x

x = 3

Therefore, the missing value is: 3.

A photo of a mosquito in a science book is magnified to 635% of the mosquito's actual size.If the mosquito is 16 millimetres lon
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The length of the mosquito in the picture is 117.6 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

The real size of the mosquito is 16 mm, which is 100% = 1.

In the picture, the size is magnified 635%, so it is 100+635 = 735% = 7.35. So

16mm - 1

x mm - 7.35

x = 7.35*16 = 117.6

The length of the mosquito in the picture is 117.6 mm.
