First you move -15 over which makes it 7b=5b+12
then you move 5b over so then its 2b=12
divide b=6
3/4*3/3=9/12
Hope this helps
Okay, first, given the equation, we need to find out what the radius of the circle is. Let us state the general equation of a circle:

Where

is the centre of the circle. In this case, we don't need to know the centre. Just the radius.
Let us start by converting the equation into standard for, which I typed above. Divide both sides by 81.

Great! We now know the radius of the circle. It is

because it is the bottom fraction. Now we know that the radius is 9.
So now lets input this into the area of circle formula:
Now we insert our radius.
You can convert that into a decimal if you wish.
Hope this helped!

Answer: 21.994 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the shaded region = Area of the bigger circle - the areas of the two smaller circles.
Formula for finding area of a circle = πr² where π is a constants . It has value of 22/7 or 3.142
Now area of the bigger circle = 3.142 x 3²
= 3.142 x 9
= 28.278 cm² Now are of the two smaller triangle = 3.142 x 1² x 2
= 6.284 cm².
Therefore are of the shaded region = 28.278 - 6.284
= 21.994 cm²
