Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for area of a circle is π x r^2
r = radius = 7 cm.
Area = 7^2 x π
Area = 49π cm²
The probability is likely but not impossible. there is a 4/5 chance she will not spend a four.
Regroup terms:
y - 2/9 ≤ 5/9
Add 2/9 to both sides:
y ≤ 5/9 + 2/9
Simplify 5/9 + 2/9 to 7/9:
y ≤ 7/9
Look at steps 2 and 3. Steps 4 and 5 have the same two reasons.
