Answer:

b = 33.546.

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b + c = 77     (1)

a - 5 = b + 5       (2)

a = 5c                 (3)

from equation 2:

a - b = 10

Adding this equation to equation 1:

2a + c = 87

But a = 5c so

10c + c = 87

c = 87/11 = 7.909

and a = 5*7.909 = 35.545.

b = 77 - 7.909 - 35.545

= 33.546

The area of a circle is 36/pi cm^2 What is the radius of the circle?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

the  radius of the circle is 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a circle is given to be  = 36πcm²

radius of the circle = ?

to find the radius of the circle lets start by applying  the formula for finding the area of a circle.

area of a circle = πr²

36πcm² = πr²

36π = πr²

divide both sides by π

36π/π = πr²/π

36 = r²

to get the value of r we are going to look for a way of getting rid of the square on "r" by squaring 36

r² = 36

r =√36

r = 6cm

therefore the  radius of the circle is 6cm
