Answer: A = 396 tons

B = 70 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Weight of A + Weight of B = 466

Weight of A - Weight of B = 326

A + B = 466 ......... i

A - B = 326 ..........ii

Subtract equation ii from I

2B = 140

B = 140/2

B = 70 tons

A = 466 - 70

A = 396 tons

What is the best approximation for the area of a circle with a diameter of 19 meters?
FromTheMoon [43]
A = \pi r^{2} is the equation used for determining area from radius.  We're given diameter, so to get the radius simply divide by 2. 19/2 = 9.5.

A = (3.14)(9.5)^{2}, when solved, equals 283.385 m^(2).  After rounding to the nearest tenth, we get 283.4 m^{2}

Rationalize the denominator of 4/14 root 2?
Katarina [22]

First of all, you can simplify the 4 at the numerator and the 14 at the denominator (they're both multiple of 2):

\dfrac{4}{14\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{2\cdot 2}{2\cdot 7\cdot\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{2}{7\sqrt{2}}

Now, rationalize a denominator means that you have to get rid of the square root, in order to have an integer denominator.

To do so, remember that you can always multiply any number by 1 without changing its value, and you can always think of 1 as a fraction where numerator and denominator are equal:

\dfrac{2}{7\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{2}{7\sqrt{2}}\cdot 1 = \dfrac{2}{7\sqrt{2}} \cdot \dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{7\cdot 2} = \dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{7}
