A 12 ft. rope is attached to the wall of a garage. A dog’s collar is attached to the end of the rope to allow him to safely stay

Since it's a wall, I'm guessing it will only have access to half the circle? Therefore:

Circle area formula: πr²

Radius: 12/2 = 6ft

36π/2 =

18π = 56.55ft²

Find the sum. 48 + 45 + 42+...+(-81) + (-84)

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

look below

Step-by-step explanation:

i dont know what that +... thing is

but when youre adding the negatives youre really just adding that number so this is just

48+45+42+81+84

45+42 is 87

now we have

48 + 87 + 81 + 84

87 + 81 is 168

48 + 84 is 132

now we have

168 + 132 and that is exactly 300

again dont know what the ... is so cant help you there
