Answer:

21 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's remember that the formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L*W, where L is the length and W the width.

In this case, L = 21 feet and W = 9 feet.

Therefore, A = 21 feet * 9 feet = 189 square feet

We need the answer in square yards. We know that 1 feet equals 1/3 yard (1 feet = 1/3 yard)

As we need square yards, we just square the equation above.

1^2 square feet = (1/3) ^2 square yards

1 square feet = 1/9 square yards

The area is 189 square feet, so we just multiply by 189 on both sides to do the conversion to square yards.

189 square feet = 189*1/9 square yards

189 square feet = 21 square yards

The area of the flower bed is 21 square yards

21 times 9 which equals 189 feet and there are 3 feet in a yard so we do 189 divided by 3 which equals 63 so the answer is 63 square yards.

The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder of height 14 cm is 88 cm2. find the diameter of the base of the cylinder

White raven [17]

Answer:

2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 14 cm

Curved surface area of a right circular cylinder = 88 cm²

2πrh = 88

$2 * \frac{22}{7}*r*14=88\\\\r = \frac{88*7}{2*22*14}\\\\ r =1 \\\\r = 1 cm$

Diameter = 2 * r = 2 * 1 = 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

x = -4

f(x)=x² - 4x +6

so,

f(-4)= (-4)² - 4 . (-4) +6

=16 +16 +6

= 38

(15a^4 - 30a^5 )/5a^2

= 5a^2(3a^2 - 6a^3) / 5a^2

= 3a^2 - 6a^3

= - 6a^3 + 3a^2

raph the equation with a diameter that has endpoints at (-3, 4) and (5, -2). Label the center and at least four points on the ci

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Equation:

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 2x - 2y - 35= 0$

The point (0,-5), (0,7), (5,0) and (-7,0)also lie on this circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a circle with a diamterhat hs endpoints at (-3, 4) and (5, -2).

The center of this circle is the midpoint of (-3, 4) and (5, -2).

We use the midpoint formula:

$( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2,}{2} )$

Plug in the points to get:

$( \frac{ - 3+5}{2}, \frac{ - 2+4}{2} )$

$( \frac{ -2}{2}, \frac{ 2}{2} )$

$( - 1, 1)$

We find the radius of the circle using the center (-1,1) and the point (5,-2) on the circle using the distance formula:

$r = \sqrt{ {(x_2-x_1)}^{2} + {(y_2-y_1)}^{2} }$

$r = \sqrt{ {(5 - - 1)}^{2} + {( - 2- - 1)}^{2} }$

$r = \sqrt{ {(6)}^{2} + {( - 1)}^{2} }$

$r = \sqrt{ 36+ 1 } = \sqrt{37}$

The equation of the circle is given by:

$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = {r}^{2}$

Where (h,k)=(-1,1) and r=√37 is the radius

We plug in the values to get:

$(x- - 1)^2 + (y-1)^2 = {( \sqrt{37}) }^{2}$

$(x + 1)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 37$

We expand to get:

${x}^{2} + 2x + 1 + {y}^{2} - 2y + 1 = 37$

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 2x - 2y +2 - 37= 0$

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 2x - 2y - 35= 0$

We want to find at least four points on this circle.

We can choose any point for x and solve for y or vice-versa

When y=0,

${x}^{2} + {0}^{2} + 2x - 2(0) - 35= 0$

${x}^{2} +2x - 35= 0$

$(x - 5)(x + 7) = 0$

$x = 5 \: or \: x = - 7$

The point (5,0) and (-7,0) lies on the circle.

When x=0

${0}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 2(0) - 2y - 35= 0$

${y}^{2} - 2y - 35= 0$

$(y - 7)(y + 5) = 0$

$y = 7 \: or \: y = - 5$

The point (0,-5) and (0,7) lie on this circle.
