Answer:

2 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A square is inscribed in a circle whose radius is r = 1 cm

Therefore, the diameter of the circle is 2 r = 2 x 1

                                                                      = 2 cm.

So the diagonal of the square is 2r.

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we find each of the side of the triangle is $r \sqrt 2$.

Therefore, the area of the square is given by $\text{(side)}^2$

                                                                         = $(r\sqrt 2)^2$

                                                                         $= 2 r^2$

                                                                         $= 2 (1)^2$

                                                                         $=2 \ cm^2$

Hence the area of the largest square that is contained by a circle of radius 1 cm is 2 cm square.

Six times a number plus twice a second number is four. Twice the first number plus four times the second number is eighteen.
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

x=-1, y=5. (-1, 5). The first number is -1 and the second number is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+2y=4

2x+4y=18

---------------

-2(6x+2y)=-2(4)

2x+4y=18

-------------------------

-12x-4y=-8

2x+4y=18

----------------

-10x=10

x=10/-10

x=-1

6(-1)+2y=4

-6+2y=4

2y=4-(-6)

2y=4+6

2y=10

y=10/2

y=5

Absolute value and piecewise function explanation tooo plz
Darina [25.2K]

Because of the "x-5" in the absolute value, the pieces will separate at x=5, because that's where x-5 = 0.

(This knocks out answer #1, 3, and 4)

To confirm option #2 is correct:

If you pick a number greater than 5, the absolute value doesn't do anything, so

  if x > 5, a(x) = (x-5) + 1

If you pick a number less than 5, "x-5" is negative and the absolute value gives you the opposite of that value:

  if x < 5, a(x) = - (x-5) +1

The answer is the second option.

A sinking fund is being established the goal of which is to reach $100,000. Calculate the payment where i is the interest rate p
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

<u>Initial deposit = $ 60,241 (Rounding to the next whole dollar)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Future Value = 100,000

Interest rate = 0.03

N = 22

2. Let's calculate the initial deposit for the sinking fund, this way:

Future Value = Initial deposit * (1 + i*N)

Replacing with the real values:

100,000 = Initial deposit * (1 + 0.03 * 22)

100,000 = 1.66 Initial deposit

Initial deposit = 100,000/1.66

<u>Initial deposit = $ 60,241 (Rounding to the next whole dollar)</u>
