Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Daisy's mom is 4 times as old as she.

m = 4d

The sum of their ages 6 years ago was 28.

(m - 6) + (d - 6) = 28

Substitute for m = 4d

(4d - 6) + (d - 6) = 28

Combine like terms

5d - 12 = 28

5d = 40

Divide by 5

d = 8

m = 4d

m = 4 * 8

m = 32

<h2>Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle = π/4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of square be a and radius of circle be r.

The perimeter of a particular square and the circumference of a particular circle are equal.

Perimeter of square = 4 x a = 4a

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Given that

4a = 2πr

$a=\frac{\pi r}{2}$

We need to find the ratio of the area of the square to the area of the circle.

Area of the square = a²

Area of the circle = πr²

$\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle =}\frac{a^2}{\pi r^2}\\\\\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle =}\frac{\left ( \frac{\pi r}{2}\right )^2}{\pi r^2}\\\\\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle = }\frac{\pi}{4}$
