Answer:

No, she couldn't have scored only two goals because that would mean Kenny scored six and 2 + 6 does not equal 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of goals Carrie scored

Let 3x = Number of goals Kenny scored (three times Carrie)

Now we set up an equation showing that they both scored a sum of 12 goals.

3x + x = 12

Combine like terms

4x = 12

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate variable x

x = 12/4

x = 3

Carrie scored 3 goals. So your answer is no.

We are given with an area of a disk equal to <span>500 cm2. Area of a circle is equal to pi r^2. Hence the radius of the disk is equal to (500/pi)^0.5 or equal to 12.6159 cm. If the area is equal to 507 cm^2, then r is equal to 12.7039 cm, while if the area is 493 cm2, the radius is 12.5272 cm. The percent difference is 0.7% and 0.69%</span>
