Answer:
choice A; 128.52 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This shape is made up of a semi-circle and a rectangle. The area of the rectangle will be 12*6 = 72 sq ft.
The formula for area of a circle is *
. also r=radius. We are given the diameter, 12 feet. The radius is diameter/2, so the radius of the circle will be 6 feet.
Since pi is infinite we round it to 3.14.
Plug in the values and our expression will be (3.14*)/2 because it is a semi-circle. Simplify that to (3.14*36)/2 = 113.04/2 = 56.52 sq ft.
Remember to add the area of the rectangle and semi-circle. 72 + 56.52 = 128.52 sq ft.
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the complete question used in answering this question :
Three-fourths of the boats in the marina are white. 4/7 of the remaining boats are blue , and the rest are red . If there are 9red boats, how many boats are in the marina?
We first have to determine the fraction of the boats that are red
1 - ( +
)
1 -
1 -
1 - 1
= 9/28
so, 9/28 of the boats are red
let b represent the total number of boats
9/28 x b = 9
to find b, divide both sides of the equation by 28/9
b = 28
