Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so in this equation we have 2 variables, and we must figure out what those variables mean:

y: "y" is the total amount of money joe has after subtracting his debt from it

x: "x" is the # of months as the cost of each month(30) is placed just before this variable

as y is the total amount of money joe has we need to substitute it for 230 to figure out how long it took for joe to recieve that much money

230=30x-250

480=30x

x=16

it took joe 16 months to get $230

Simplify. x^2-3x-18/x+3

andre [41]

Answer:

1. Option C is correct

2. Option A is correct

3. Option C is correct

4. Option B is correct

5. Option D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x^2-3x-18/x+3

Factorize the numerator

x^2-6x+3x-18/x+3

x(x-6)+3(x-6)/x+3

(x+3)(x-6)/x+3

x-6

x-6 where x≠6

Option C is correct.

2. x-2/x^2+4x-12

Factorizing the denominator

x-2/x^2+6x-2x-12

x-2/x(x+6)-2(x+6)

x-2/(x-2)(x+6)

1/x+6

1/x+6 where x≠-6

Option A is correct.

3. 5x^3/7 x^3+x^4

5x^3/7x^3+x^4

5x^3/x^3(7+x)

5/7+x

Option C is correct

5/7+x where x≠-7

4. Simplify x/6x-x^2

x/6x-x^2

x/x(6-x)

1/6-x

Option B is correct

1/6-x where x≠6

5. 2/3a * 2/a^2

Multiplying both terms

4/3a^3

Option D is correct.

4/3a^3 where a≠0

finlep [7]

Answer:

The area of the copper circle is 31.4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

An artist used silver wire to make a square that has a perimeter of 40 inches.

She then used copper wire to make the largest circle that could fit in the square, with perimeter of 40 inches.

Use 3.14 to represent π.

Now, to find the area of the copper circle.

Perimeter of square = 40 inches.

So, we get the side of square by putting formula:

$Perimeter=4\times side$

$40=4\times side$

Dividing both sides by 4 we get:

$10=side.$

$Side=10\ inches.$

Now, as the side of square is 10 inches it is the diameter of the circle as the square is fit inside the circle:

For getting the area of circle we find the radius:

Radius (r) = $\frac{Diameter}{2} \\=\frac{10}{2}= 5\ inches.$

Now, putting the formula to get the area of the circle:

$Area=2\times \pi \times r$

$Area=2\times 3.14\times 5$

$Area=31.4\ inches.$

Therefore, the area of the copper circle is 31.4 inches.
