2.08/2.22 (forget the millions as they are the same!) = 0.937 (rounded) = 93.7%

Circle A has a diameter of 9 inches, a circumference of 28.26 inches, and an area of 63.585 square inches. The diameter of circl
torisob [31]
Please note that pi has just one value.  The only difference stems from round-off error when you don't use all of the digits following "3.14159 ... " to represent the value of pi.  The formula for circumference is C = 2 pi r, or C = pi d, 
where r=radius and d=diameter.

Circle A:  Diameter 9 inches and Circumference of 28.26 inches

If the diameter is 9 inches, then C = 28.26 inches = pi (9 inches).  Divide 28.26 inches by 9 inches.  Note that you MUST round off the ratio (pi) that you obtain, since 28.26 has 4 significant figures and 9 has just one.

28.26
------- = 3.14, but because 9 has just one significant figure, you must round 
    9           this 3.14 to just 3.

What is the solution to the system of equations?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's your given:

y = 4x - 10

y = 2

Because they both equal y, that means they equal each other:

2 = 4x - 10

Add 10 on both sides:

12 = 4x

Then, divide 4 on both sides:

3 = x

This represents the x coordinate.

Normally you would put this value into one of the equations to figure out y, but they already gave us that in the beginning:

y = 2

This represents the y coordinate.

Put the two values together to get: (3,2)
