Steve ran 11 miles
let the distance Steve ran be x
Then distance Kevin ran is x + 4 ( 4 miles more than Steve )
x + x + 4 = 26 ( the sum of their distance is 26 )
2x + 4 = 26 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 11
Steve ran 11 mies and Kevin ran 11 + 4 = 15 miles
check 11 + 15 = 26
I'm assuming a quarter-circle is exactly 1/4 of a circle. Thus if you have 4 congruent quarter-circles, that should mean they make a complete circle.
If that is the case, then we can find the area of the full circle using pi*r^2.
So the area of the circle is 5^2*pi or 25pi.
To find the area of the shaded region, we subtract the area of the circle from the area of the square.
The area of the square is 10^2 or 100.
So the area of the shaded region is 100 - 25pi.
My calculator says that equals roughly 21.46
Answer:
x = - , x =
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the points of intersection equate the 2 equations , that is
7x - 15 = 10 + 12x - 6x² ( subtract 10 + 12x - 6x² from both sides )
6x² - 5x - 25 = 0 ← factor the quadratic on left side
consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 6 × - 25 = - 150 and sum = - 5
the factors are - 15 and + 10
use these factors to split the x- term
6x² - 15x + 10x - 25 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3x(2x - 5) + 5(2x - 5) = 0 ← factor out (2x - 5) from each term
(2x - 5)(3x + 5) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
3x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 3x = - 5 ⇒ x = -
2x - 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 5 ⇒ x =
The solution can be anything bigger than 13/6.
For example: 3, 4, 5, 6...ect
