the value of x is 8 cm.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Correct Question : In the diagram, the radius of the outer circle is 2x cm and the radius of the inside circle is 6 cm. The area of the shaded region is 220π cm2. What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box.
We have ,
the area of a circle = πr²
the outer circle area =
the inside circle area =
According to Question,
the outer circle area - the inside circle area = he shaded region

Therefore , the value of x is 8 cm.
You can find counterexamples to disprove this claim. We have positive integers that are perfect square numbers; when we take the square root of those numbers, we get an integer.
For example, the square root of 1 is 1, which is an integer. So if y = 1, then the denominator becomes an integer and thus we get a quotient of two integers (since x is also defined to be an integer), the definition of a rational number.
Example: x = 2, y = 1 ends up with which is rational. This goes against the claim that
is always irrational for positive integers x and y.
Any integer y that is a perfect square will work to disprove this claim, e.g. y = 1, y = 4, y= 9, y = 16. So it is not always irrational.
