Answer:

#1. 31.4 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are solving for the square units and also we are circumference formular

which is C = R x 2) (3.14)

R is 5 but in a case they don't give us the Radius and gives us the Diameter we decide the Diameter by 2 and we will get the radius.

Back to the problem

C = R x 2) (3.14)

C =  5 x 2 x 3.14

C = 10 x 3.14

C = 31.4

Please explain how you got the answer, i dont understand the subject
KIM [24]

Answer:

y=mx+c

We have to find the value of m and c.

Let's substitute the value of x and y from the table.

When x=1, y=15,

15= m(1)+c

m +c= 15 ------(1)

Now substitute another set of x and y values.

When x=2, y=24,

24= m(2)+c

2m +c= 24

c= 24 -2m ------(2)

Let me rewrite the two equations so that it is clearer for you to see.

m + c= 15 -----(1)

c = 24 -2m -----(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

m+ 24-2m= 15

-m= 15-24 (bring constants to 1 side, m terms to the other)

-m= -9 (simplify)

m= 9 ( divide by -1 throughout)

subst. m=9 into (2):

c= 24 -2(9)

c= 24-18

c= 6

Thus, the equation is y=9x+6.

When the cat is 3 years old, x=3.

When x=3,

y= 9(3)+6

y= 33.

Hence, the cat is 33 years old in human years.
