Answer:

Piper's claim that 3(2a+2) is equal to 5a +6 is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to use the distributive property to distribute the 3 to BOTH the 2a and 2. The resulting expression is 6a+6 NOT 5a+6. Piper's mistake was most probably that she added 3 and 2 to get 5 instead of multiplying them together to get 6.

I do need help with this problem that includes pi. ^_^
Troyanec [42]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Circumference = 50.24 ft = 2πr = πd
  • Dia. = 16 ft.

<u>Divide the diameter both sides.</u>

  • 50.24 ft = πd
  • => 50.24/d ft = πd/d
  • => 50.24/d ft = π

<u>Substitute the diameter in the equation.</u>

  • => 50.24/16 = π (Option A)
