Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 3

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 1 + 2/x:

1 + 2/x = 3

Bring 1 + 2/x together using the common denominator x:

(x + 2)/x = 3

Multiply both sides by x:

x + 2 = 3 x

Subtract 3 x + 2 from both sides:

-2 x = -2

Divide both sides by -2:

Answer: x = 1

HELP PLEASE. A pizza shop charges customers based on the area of the pizza they order. The cost of a pizza in dollars can be rep

san4es73 [151]

For this case we have that the cost of each pizza is given by the following function:

$S (r) = 0.1 \pi * r ^ 2$

Where:

r: It's the radius of the pizza

IF a pizza cost $26.32 we have:

$26.32 = 0.1 \pi * r ^ 2$

We cleared the radius, using $\pi = 3.14$ :

$\frac {26.32} {0.1} = \pi * r ^ 2\\263.2 = 3.14r ^ 2\\\frac {263.2} {3.14} = r ^ 2\\83.82 = r ^ 2\\r = \pm \sqrt {83.82}$

We choose the positive value:

$r = 9.15$

So, the radius of the pizza is $9.16 \ in$

Then, the diameter is: $2r = 2 * 9.15 = 18.30 \ in$

Finally, the diameter of the pizza is: $18.30 \ in$

Option B
