Let the number of chemistry books be x and the number of calculus books be y
total number of books in each case is:
x+y=24
x=24-y.....i

Weight of each case:
2707.2/20
=135.36
thus
4.2x+6.0y=135.36..ii substituting i in ii
4.2(24-y)+6y=135.36
100.8-4.2y+6y=135.36
hence
1.8y=34.56
y=19.2
hence
x=24-19.2
x=4.8
thus the number of chemistry books was 4.8*20=96 number of calculus was
19.2*20
=384 books

Scrat [10]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>d = 10</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>3/4(6 + d) = 12</em>

<em>(18 + 3d)/4 = 12</em>

<em>18 + 3d = 48</em>

<em>3d = 48 - 18</em>

<em>3d = 30</em>

<em>d = 30 : 3</em>

<em>d = 10</em>

Find the area created by the overlapping circles given the following information.
lara31 [8.8K]

The area of a circular sector of central angle α (in radians) in a circle of radius r is given by

... A = (1/2)r²×(α - sin(α))


Your area is expected to be computed as the sum of the areas of a sector with angle π/3 in a circle of radius 8 and a sector with angle π/2 in a circle of radius 6.


... A = (1/2)8²×(π/3 - sin(π/3)) + (1/2)6²×(π/2 - sin(π/2))

... A ≈ 16.07


Radii are in inches so the units of area will be in². The appropriate choice is

... 16.10 in²


_____

It should be noted that the geometry described is impossible. Chord CD of circle A will have length 6√2 ≈ 8.4853 inches. Chord CD of circle B will have length 8 inches. They cannot both be the same chord.
