Answer:

b=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

99 = 2(-7b + -3) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = 2(-3 + -7b) + 7

99 = (-3 * 2 + -7b * 2) + 7

99 = (-6 + -14b) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = -6 + 7 + -14b

Combine like terms: -6 + 7 = 1

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '14b' to each side of the equation.

99 + 14b = 1 + -14b + 14b

Combine like terms: -14b + 14b = 0

99 + 14b = 1 + 0

99 + 14b = 1

Add '-99' to each side of the equation.

99 + -99 + 14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 99 + -99 = 0

0 + 14b = 1 + -99

14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 1 + -99 = -98

14b = -98

Divide each side by '14'.

b = -7

Simplifying

b = -7

Answer:

1.875\pi square units

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that area of a circle is pi r square.

The sector has a proportional area according to the angle it subtends at the centre.

Here we have a circle of radius 3 inches with central angle 75 degrees.

Total angle of a circle = 360

Area of the given sector = Area of yellow shaded= $\frac{75}{360} *\pi (3^2) \\= 1.875\pi$

1. What is the volume of a square

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

D. The volume of square based pyramid is 1280 $inch^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:- A square base pyramid of,

Base edge (b) =16 inches.

Height (h)= 15 inches.

To find:- Volume of the square bases pyramid=?

Solution:-

As the given pyramid is a square based pyramid, therefore the formula to find the volume for square based pyramid is,

Volume of square based pyramid = $b^{2} \frac{h}{3}$

where, b is the base edge and h is the height of the pyramid.

$\therefore$ Volume of square based pyramid = $\frac{16^{2}\times 15 }{3}$

$\therefore$ Volume of square based pyramid = $\frac{256\times 15}{3}$

$\therefore$ Volume of square based pyramid = $\frac{3840}{3}$

$\therefore$ Volume of square based pyramid = 1280 $inch^{3}$

Therefore the volume of square based pyramid is 1280 $inch^{3}$
