Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I use the Pythagoras theorem.

$\sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} } =c^{2}$

$4^{2}{x}6^{2} = c^{2}$

16 x 36= 576

$\sqrt{576} = 24$

Imagine you are given the diameter of a circle and asked to find its volume. Select the statement that describes what you should

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

We need to take the diameter and divide by 2 to find the radius

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is found by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

So we need the radius

We know the diameter

r = d/2

We need to take the diameter and divide by 2

What are the potential solutions to the equation 2ln(x+3)=0

skad [1K]

$2\ln(x+3)=0\implies \ln(x+3)^2=0\implies e^{\ln(x+3)^2}=e^0\implies (x+3)^2=1$

Expanding the left side gives

$x^2+6x+9=1\implies x^2+6x+8=0\implies (x+4)(x+2)=0$

which gives two solutions, $x=-4$ and $x=-2$ . But if $x=-4$ , then $\ln(x+3)=\ln(-1)$ , but this number isn't real, so $x=-4$ is an extraneous solution. Meanwhile if $x=-2$ , you get $\ln(-2+3)=\ln1=0$ , so this solution is correct.

"Potential solutions" might refer to both possibilities, but there is only one actual (real) solution.

The diagram shows the cross-section of a wall of a cinema. It has to be painted. Work out the area that needs to be painted.

mestny [16]

Answer:

Area = 370 m²

Cost to paint = £105

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the wall of a cinema hall = Area of a trapezoid (1)+ Area of a rectangle (2) + Area of a trapezoid (3)

Area of a trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h$
