x^2-2=7

Subtract 7 from both sides

x^2-2-7=7-7

x^2-9=0

x^2-3^2=0

Using a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

Where a=x and b=3

(x-3)(x+3)

A 50 centimeter piece of wire is bent into a circle. What is the area of this circle?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

198.95 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 50cm

C = πD

D = C/π

r = D/2

r = 50/π/2

r= 7.957747…..cm

Area = π r²

A = π x 7.957747….²

A = 198.95 cm² (2dp)

Flauer [41]

Answer:

running 1.5 hours

Walking 4.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of time she spends on walking be x

d/3 + d/9 = 6 Multiply by 9

3d + d = 6*9

4d = 54 Divide by 4

4d/4 = 54/4

d = 13 2/4 = 13 1/2 = 13.5 miles

d/3 = 13.5/3 = 4.5 hours

d/9 = 13.5/9 = 1.5 hours

Total 6 hours

I hope this is the right interpretation.

There are 6 brown, 5 blue, and 2 orange marbles in a hat. What is the probability of picking two orange marbles in a row without

xenn [34]

The correct answer is 1/78.

Explanation:
There are 2 orange marbles out of 13 total marbles, so the probability of your first marble being orange is 2/13.

After this one is drawn, since it is not returned, the probability of getting a second orange marble is 1/12, since there is only 1 orange marble left out of 12 total marbles.

This gives us the total probability 2/13(1/12)=2/156=1/78.
