A unit of electricity costs 13.2 pence. On average, tanya uses 90 units of electricity per week. She pays for her bill in 12 wee
Scrat [10]

Her electricity bill will be of 14256 pence.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

On average, Tanya uses 90 units of electricity per week.

So, the <u>total units of electricity in 12 weeks</u> will be: (90*12)=1080 units

One unit of electricity costs 13.2 pence.

Thus, <u>the total cost for 1080 units</u> will be:  (13.2*1080)pence= 14256 pence.

So, her electricity bill will be of 14256 pence.

HURRY I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!! A circle is drawn within a square as shown.
Anton [14]
The width of the square is 7 cm. This is also the diameter of the circle.

To find the area of the square, you do 7², which is 49 cm². 

To find the area of a circle, you do πr².

The radius is half the diameter, so it's 7 ÷ 2, which is 3.5 cm.

π3.5² ≈ 38.4845100065 cm².

The shaded region is the area of the square minus the area of the circle.  

49 - 38.4845100065 = <span>10.5154899935, but because you're using 3.14 to approximate pi, the closest answer is 10.54 cm</span>².

The answer is 10.54 cm².
