9x - y = 15
2x + 8y = 28
Use the substitution method.
Solve for y in the first equation.
9x - y = 15
-y = 15 - 9x
y = -15 + 9x
Now plug in y into the second equation.
2x + 8(-15 + 9x) = 28
2x - 120 + 72x = 28
74x - 120 = 28
74x = 148
x = 2
Plug x back into the rewritten first equation.
y = -15 + 9(2)
y = -15 + 18
y = 3
x = 2, y = 3
Answer: the area of the shaded region is 72.96 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as
Area = πr²
Where
r represents the radius of the circle.
π is a constant whose value is 3.14
From the information given,
Diameter of circle = 16 feet
Radius = diameter/2 = 16/2 = 8 feet
Area of circle = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96ft²
The sides of the square are equal. To determine the length of each side of the square, L, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore,
16² = L² + L²
256 = 2L²
L² = 256/2 = 128
L = √128 ft
Area of the square is
L² = (√128)²
Area = 128 ft²
Area of shaded region is
200.96 - 128 = 72.96 ft²
