Mathematics

Answer: Hi!

Remember, when you're subtracting a negative, that's equal to adding a positive. So -2-(-17) is actually equal to -2 + 17!

-2 + 17 = 15

The expression -2-(-17) is equal to 15.

Hope this helps!

I have a different number of kids & can't seem ton find the correct numbers

<h3>Answer: </h3><h3>Fred has <u>20 students</u> and Lee has <u>22 students</u></h3>

=============================================================

Work Shown:

L = number of students in Lee's class

F = number of students in Fred's class

Lee has 1.1 times as many students compared to Fred

This means we have this equation

L = 1.1F

Whatever the value of F is, we multiply that by 1.1 to get the value of L

The two amounts L and F add to 42 total students

L+F = 42

1.1F + F = 42 .... replace L with 1.1F

2.1F = 42

F = 42/(2.1)

F = 20 .... Fred has 20 students

L = 1.1*F

L = 1.1*20

L = 22 .... Lee has 22 students

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

Check:

L+F = 22+20 = 42

this confirms the answer

Can someone help :(!
tester [92]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

You should know the area of a circle, A = πr².

So, all you need to find is the area of half a circle, or A = \frac{1}{2} πr²

We see that the radius is half of the diameter or r = 6 in.

A = \frac{1}{2} (3.14)(6)²

A = 56.52 in²
