For this case we have the following operation:
 538 - 247
 To subtract both numbers we must follow the following steps:
 1) Subtraction is done from left to right:
 2) We subtract the first digits:
 8 - 7 = 1
 3) We subtract the second digits:
 3 - 4
 Since 4 is greater than 3 then we add a digit to 3 and accumulate it for the next subtraction:
 13 - 4 = 9
 4) We subtract the digit accumulated in the previous subtraction to the following number:
 5 - 2 - 1 = 2
 Finally the result is:
 538 - 247 = 291

A dog is leashed to the corner of a house with a 20 ft long leash. How much running area does the dog have? Round your answer to
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog is leashed to a fixed point, the leash has a length of 20 ft, therefore he can rotate around that point at the maximum distance equal to the length of the leash. This pattern forms a circle, but there is an obstruction, which is the corner of the house. This obstruction takes an arc of the original circle, so the running area of the dog is the area of the whole circle minus the area of the arc formed by the corner of the house.

\text{dog's area} = \text{circle's area} - \text{arc's area}\\\\\text{dog's area} = pi*(20^2) - \frac{90}{360}*pi*(20^2)\\\\\text{dog's area} = \frac{270}{360}*pi*(400)\\\\\text{dog's area} = 942.477\text{ feet}^2

The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².

Hello, I gotta turn it turn in this question today, help!!!!!!
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

2 or -2

Step-by-step explanation:

If x² - 8x = -12

Step 1

We find x by solving

x² - 8x = -12

We equate to zero

x² - 8x + 12 = 0

We factorise

x² - 6x - 2x + 12 = 0

x(x - 6) -2(x - 6) = 0

(x - 6) (x - 2) = 0

x - 6 = 0, x = 6

x - 2 = 0, x = 2

x = 6 or 2

Step 2

What is x - 4?

When x = 6

= 6 - 4 = 2

When x = 2

= 2 - 4 = -2

Therefore, x - 4 = 2 or -2
