Probability is based off of option possible, if you have only one out of one possible options the answer will be no, but if you have more than one option than yes absolutely, you can have a probability of an event ever be greater than one.

The figure below shows the circle inside of a square if the radius of the circle Is 8cm find the following by showing the formul

Goryan [66]

A. The circumference of the circle:
C = 2 π r = 2 * 3.14 * 8 = 50.24 cm

B. The area of the circle:
A = π r² = 3.14 * 8² = 200.96 cm²

C. The area of the square:
Let's calculate first the side of the square. It is equal to 2r = 2*8=16 cm

The area of the square is:
16*16 = 256 cm²

Hope that helps.

2³+2²+2÷2²+2+1=2 prove that this relation is true for any natural numbers

UkoKoshka [18]

So, this question is basically asking us "If we had an x instead of a 2, would this be true?" We can try and see what we get:

$\frac{x^3+x^2+x}{x^2+x+1}=x$

So, if we want to show this we have to change the numerator or denominator in such a way that we can cancel some common factors. Notice that $x^3+x^2+x=x(x^2+x+1)$

If we replace the factored numerator with the original one, we get:

$\frac{x(x^2+x+1)}{x^2+x+1}=x \implies \\ x=x$

Since we have an equality, this relation is proved.
