This is the concept of application of geometry and financial mathematics; To calculate for the total cost of the carpet we proceed as follows;
Total cost=[area of the carpet]*[price per square yard]
area of carpet is given by:
Area=πr^2
where;
radius,r=6 yeards
=π*6^2
=113.1 square yards
therefore the price of the carpet will be:
113.1*14
=$1,583.4
Increases proportionally. (C)
Hey Brion,
1) <span>Evaluate 2A - 3B for A = 7 and B = -2.
To solve this start by filling in the variables.
2(7) - 3(-2)
Now multiply, remember that a positive times a negative is a negative.
14 - (-6)
Finally, subtract. Remember, Keep, Change, Change (KCC). Keep the first number, change symbol (for subtraction use addition), and change the negative number to a positive number.
14 + 6 = 20
</span><span>2) If x = -3, then x 2-7x + 10 equals
Start by filling in the variables.
-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10
Now follow PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction) to solve. Remember K.C.C (no. 1 above)
</span>-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10
<span>(-6) - (-21) + 10
(-6) + (21) + 10
15 + 10

Note: For #2 you may be missing a symbol between the first "x" and "2" because the answer I got above (25) is not one of your choices. Let me know what symbol is missing in the equation: </span><span>x 2-7x + 10, and I will help you solve it.</span>
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
Turn %15 into a decimal, which is .15, and then 240 x .15
