What is the approximate area of the following circle?

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$38.47 {m}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a circle is

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

We know that

$\pi = 3.14 \: \: \: \: \: \: r = 3.5$

Therefore the area is

$a= \pi {r}^{2} \\ \\ a = (3.14) {(3.5)}^{2} \\ \\ a = 3.14 \times 12.25 \\ \\ a = 38.47 {m}^{2}$

In 2000, 54% of the residents in a large city regularly used newspapers for getting news and this has decreased at an average r

Anika [276]

X=number of years after 2000.
y=percentage of residents (still) reads newspapers for information
initial value (= y-intercept) = percentage in 2000 = 54%
slope = increase each year = -1.7% (because it is a decrease)
the slope intercept form of the equation is therefore:
y=slope(x)+initial value, or
y=-1.7x+54 (in %)
