Answer and Step by Step Explanation

a) f(r) = 2πr

The question only asks for the expression for circumference in which the value of the radius can always be plugged in and a circumference obtained. And this, from basic geometry is 2πr.

b) Option (iii) is correct.

f(12) represents the circumference (in cm) of a circle whose radius is 12 cm.

A radius of r = 12 cm was plugged into the circumference equation and f(12) is the answer obtained.

c) Option (ii) is correct.

In the context f(a) = 12, a represents the radius (in cm) of a circle whose circumference is 12 cm

A radius of r = a cm was plugged into the circumference equation and 12 is the answer for circumference obtained.

d) In this context, the radius can take on values of every positive real number.

This is because simply, the radius of a circle is defined as a straight line from the center of a circle to the circumference of a circle.

Although, generally, a radius can take on virtually any real or imaginary number because more technically, a circle is the locus of all points equidistant from a central point. And this opens the scope of the radius. The general equation of a circle with centre (a,b) and radius, r is given as

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

The square on the r, gives it the power to have such a wide range of values.

e) In this context, the circumference can take on values of every positive real number.

Quadratic equation
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h2>            46</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x          -  age of a son three years ago

3x        -  age of a father three years ago

x + 3      -  age of the son now

3x + 3       -  age of the father now

x + 3 + 5       -  age of the son in five years time

3x + 3 + 5       -  age of the father in five years time

in five years time, the father will be twice as old as his son, so:

3x + 3 + 5 = 2(x + 3 + 5)

3x + 8 = 2x + 16

3x - 2x = 16 - 8

  x = 8

x + 3 + 4       -  age of the son in four years time

8 + 3 + 4 = 15

3x + 3 + 4       -  age of the father in four years time

3×8 + 3 + 4 = 31    

the sum of their ages in four years time:

15 + 31 = 46

Bro i need this <br><br> (x − 5)^2 = x^2 − 25
forsale [732]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+25-10x = x^2-25

-x^2               -x^2

25-10x = -25

-25        -25

-10x = -50

x=5

lets check

(5-5)^2 = 5^2-25

0^2 = 25-25

0 = 0
