A piece of wire 40 cm long is to be cut into two pieces. One piece will be bent to form a circle and; the other will be bent to
Brums [2.3K]
<h3>The perimeter of circle  = 17.6 cm</h3><h3>Perimeter of square  = 22.4 cm</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of the wire  = 40 cm

Let us assume the circumference of the circle  = k cm

So, the circumference of the square  = ( 40 - k) cm

Now,as circumference of circle = 2πR

⇒2πR = k cm    or, R  = (\frac{k}{2\pi})

Area  of the  circle = πR²  

or, A  = \pi (\frac{k}{2\pi} )^2  

 = \pi \times (\frac{k^2}{(2\pi)^2} )  = \frac{k^2}{4 \pi} \\\implies A =  \frac{k^2}{4 \pi}   ....... (1)

Similarly , perimeter of square  = 4 x Side

⇒ 4 x Side  =  ( 40 - k) cm    ⇒ S = (\frac{40 - k}{4} )

Area  of the  square = (Side)²    = (\frac{40 - k}{4} ) ^2

 Solving, we get:  A = \frac{1600 + k^2 - 80 k}{16}   ....... (1)

So, combining (1) and (2), total area A is

A = (\frac{k^2}{4 \pi} ) + \frac{k^2 + 1600 - 80 k }{16}

or, we get: A  = 0.07962 k²  + 0.0625 k² + 100 - 5 k

A  =  0.1422 k² - 5 k + 100

For axis of symmetry :  k = (\frac{-b}{2a} ) = (-\frac{-5}{2(0.1420})  = 17.6

⇒ k = 17.6 inches

So, the perimeter of circle  = 17.6 cm

Perimeter of square  = (40 - 17.6 )  = 22.4 cm

Notebooks cost a $1.20 each this week and they will be on sale for $0.80 what percentage is the sale
ozzi

We can use algebra.

So, what rate time 1.20 = .80


Let x = the rate (in a decimal form)

1.20x = .80

x = .6666666666

Now, we need to multiply by 100 to get a percentage.

66.66 The price is 66% of the regular price.


They marked it off

33.33%

After the fraction x plus 1 all over 2 minus the fraction x plus 2 all over 3 x have been combined using the least common denomi
RoseWind [281]

If I've read this correctly, it looks like this.

\dfrac{(x + 1)}{2 - \dfrac{(x + 2)}{3x}}

If that is correct, then the first step is to put the top part of the denominator over 3x

\dfrac{(x + 1)}{\dfrac{6x - (x + 2)}{3x}} = \dfrac{(x + 1)}{\dfrac{5x -2}{3x}}

The next part is to flip a three tier fraction. I'm afraid I have to show what happens. My latex is not that strong.

What you get is

\dfrac{3x*(x + 1)}{(5x - 2)}

This is just about your final answer. You could write it as

\dfrac{3x^2 + 3x}{(5x - 2)}
