Answer:

(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a square has 4 equal sides, the perimeter of a square is 4 times one of the sides (which is equal to adding all the sides together). So:

Perimeter = 4(a side) = 4x-16

a side = (4x-16)/4 = (x-4)

Answer: 800pi inches

=======================================

Explanation:

The formula to find the circumference of a circle is
C = pi*d
where
C = distance around the circle (aka circumference)
pi = 3.14 approximately
d = diameter

We know that the diameter of the wheel is d = 8, so 
C = pi*d
C = pi*8
C = 8pi
is the circumference of the wheel

One full rotation will have the wheel cover a distance of 8pi inches. Imagine that wet paint is on the outer surface of the wheel. If the wheel is rolled out in a straight line, then the wet paint would cover a linear distance of 8pi inches along the flat ground. This is one full rotation, so 100 rotations covers 100*8pi = 800pi inches

Note: if we use pi = 3.14 as the approximation, then the hamster ran approximately 800*pi = 800*3.14 = 2512 inches if the wheel could move

A fish population in a lake decreases by 2% each year. What is the common ratio? (Write your answer as a decimal)
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

the common ratio is 0.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fish population in a lake decreases by 2% each year. We are asked to find the common ratio.

The decrease of population of fish 2% annually means the population becomes next year 100% - 2% = 98%

Therefore, the common ratio would be 98%. Upon converting 98 percent to a decimal we will get,

98% = \frac{98}{100}=0.98

Therefore, the common ratio or decay factor is 0.98.

Every day, a group of 9 workers picks pea pods in a field. Each worker picks 2400 pea pods, and each pea pod contains 6 peas
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
This  = number of pea pods times number of peas in the pea pod times  number of workers

    2400 * 6 * 9 =   129,600 peas.
