If you use fractions, the answer you get will always be an exact answer in the form of a fraction. resorting to decimals means that you may run into rounding errors and therefore get only an approximate answer. e.g. the fraction 1/3 cannot be exactly represented by a decimal.fractions can be easier to represent the number rather then using decimals which involve writing out many numbers it does not affect the accuracy of the answer UNLESS you are rounding up and down the numbers

ANSWER

\begin{gathered} \text{Radius}=13.5\text{ yards} \\ \text{Diameter=27 yards} \end{gathered}

EXPLANATION

We want to find the radius and diameter of a circle given that its circumference is 84.823 yards.

The circumference of a circle is given as:

C=2\pi r

where r = radius

Therefore, the radius is:

\begin{gathered} 84.823=2\cdot\pi\cdot r \\ \Rightarrow r=\frac{84.823}{2\cdot\pi} \\ r=13.5\text{ yards} \end{gathered}

Diameter is twice the radius.

Therefore, the diameter is:

\begin{gathered} D=2\cdot r \\ D=2\cdot13.5 \\ D=27\text{ yards} \end{gathered}

Rewrite the function, differentiate, and then simplify<br><br> y= 3/√x
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{3}{2x^{\frac{3}{2} } }

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiate using the power rule

\frac{d}{dx} (ax^{n} ) = nax^{n-1}

Given

y = \frac{3}{\sqrt{x} } = 3x^{-\frac{1}{2} } , then

\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{3}{2} x^{-\frac{3}{2} } = - \frac{3}{2x^{\frac{3}{2} } }

Please help will give brainliest answer
IgorC [24]

Answer:

42.5 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can split up this shape into smaller ones.

First we can start with the large rectangle on top

We know its 9 by 3.5

9x3.5=31.5

The large rectangle is 31.5, at the end we'll add them all together

Next we can work on the small triangle on the bottom left

Area= bh/2

Both the base and height are 2, 2x2=4   4/2=2, The area of that triangle is 2

Now we can work on the triangle on the bottom right. This time the base is 5

5x2=10   10/2=5, The area of that triangle is 5

Now we need to figure out the square/rectangle at the bottom. We only know one side is 2. We can figure out the top side. Since the very top of the shape is 9, we know that the bottom side of the large rectangle also has to add to 9. We know the values 2 and 5. 2+5+x=9, the missing length that's there is 2.

Now we know the small square is 2 by 2. 2x2=4 The square's area is 4

Now we add them all up.

31.5+2+5+4=42.5
