Hello!

First you have to find the circumference of the rim

To find the circumference you use the equation

C = 2 \pi r

C is circumferece
r is radius which is half the diameter

Put in the values you know

C = 2 \pi (9)

C ≈ 56.55

You subtract the circumference of the rim by the circumference of the ball

56.55 - 30 = 26.55

The answer is 26.55 inches

Hope this helps!

Diameter of the basketball rim = 18 inchesCircumference of the standard basketball = 30 inches
Area of circle = π r² 
Basketball rim = 3.14 * (18/2)² = 3.14 * 9² = 3.14 * 81 = 254.34 in²
Circumference of a circle = 2 π r30 = 2 * 3.14 * rr = 30 / (2*3.14) = 30 / 6.28 = 4.78 inches
Standard basketball = 3.14 * (4.78)² = 3.14 * 22.85 = 71.75 in²
254.34 - 71.75 = 182.59 in²

What is the lowest value of the range of the function
Rasek [7]

The question is incomplete. Below you will find the missing graph.

The lowest value of the range of the function shown on graph is (B) -2.

Graph is the pictorial representation of the function or mathematical relation.

The lowest value of the graph is the value of y when y=f(x) gives the least value.

From the given graph we can clearly see that at x=3 the graph of the given function approaches the least value which is -2.

So the lowest value of the range of the function shown on the graph is -2.

Hence the correct option is (B).

The parents club wants to sell buttons to raise money for the local community center sports program. The buttons cost 60 cents e
astraxan [27]

Their profit made will be 4,420

This is because 0.60 x 1300 is 780

And the amount they will make by selling is $5200, because 1300 x 4

So we will do 5200 - 780, and that is the profit made- $4,420

Which is a factor of 144 − 49x2?<br><br> 12 - 7x2<br> 72 – 7x2<br> 12 – 7x<br> 72 + 7x
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

(12-7x)

Step-by-step explanation:

144 − 49x²

by observation, we can see that 144 = 12² and 49 = 7²

hence we can rewrite the equation

144 − 49x²

= 12² - 7²x²

= 12² - (7x)²

recall that the expression x² - y² = (x+y)(x-y)

hence,

12² - (7x)²

= (12 + 7x)(12-7x)

(12-7x) appears in the expression above, hence 12 -7x is a factor
