Answer:

Radius of larger flower bed = 10 feet

Radius of smaller flower bed = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complete question:</u>

"You have two circular flower beds, as shown. The sum of the areas of two flower beds is 136 pi square feet. Find the radius of each bed.<em>"</em>

<em>Radius of larger flower bed = r</em>

<em>Radius of smaller flower bed = r - 4</em>

<em />

Now,

Area of circle is  \pi r^2

Since, total area is 136\pi, we can write:

\pi r^2 + \pi (r-4)^2=136\pi

Expanding and solving for r:

\pi r^2 + \pi (r-4)^2=136\pi\\r^2+(r-4)^2=136\\r^2 + r^2 - 8r + 16 = 136\\2r^2-8r-120=0\\2(r+6)(r-10)=0\\r=-6,10

Radius cannot be negative, so r = 10  &  r-4 = 10 -4 = 6

Radius of larger flower bed = 10 feet

Radius of smaller flower bed = 6 feet

(will mark brainliest ) Which of the following best describes the expression 5(x + 2)? (5 points)
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The only one of these possible answers that could be correct is the fourth one:

The product of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x + 2.  That '5' in front of (x+2) multiplies (x+2), and so the result is a product.

A, B &amp; C form a triangle where Z BAC = 90°.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

BC ≈ 8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle , that is

BC² = AB² + AC² = 7.3² + 4.6² = 53.29 + 21.16 = 74.45 ( square root both sides )

BC = \sqrt{74.45} ≈ 8.6 ( to 1 dec. place )

The Point-Slope Equation: Pt 2
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the ratio of vertical distance to horizontal distance between the points. Since the line has to cross through the point (-5,0), count out the slope -1/3 by moving down 1 unit and to the right 3 units. This places the line between -1 and -2 on the y-axis. Looking at the options listed for b in y = mx + b. b = -5/3 is the best option and is between -1 and -2.
