-3^2= -(3)^2
The exponent of 2 only applies to the number 3. -(3)^2 should equal -9. This is true because according to the order of operations, exponents should be evaluated before multiplication. The negative sign here represents -1* 3^2.
If you want to find -3 to the power of 2 it must be written (-3)^2.
Answer: each guest gets 4.19 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The cake is a circle. The area which he cuts for himself is a sector with a central angle of 120 degrees. The formula for determining the area of a sector is expressed as
Area of sector = θ/360 × πr²
Where
θ represents the central angle
π is a constant whose value is 3.14
r represents the radius of the circle.
From the diagram,
r = 4cm
Therefore, area of the cake that he cut for himself is
120/360 × 3.14 × 4²
= 16.75 cm²
The total area of the cake is
3.14 × 4² = 50.24 cm²
Therefore, the rest of the cake is
50.24 - 16.75 = 33.49 cm²
The amount that each guest gets would be
33.49/8 = 4.19 cm²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>
- If (s -a) = 5cm, (s -b) = 10cm, (s -c) = 1cm
- s = ?
<h3>Solution</h3>
<u>Add up the 3 equations and solve for s:</u>
- s - a + s - b + s - c = 5 + 10 + 1
- 3s = 16 + a + b + c
- s = 1/3(a + b + c + 16)
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
AB + BC = AC
4m - 15 + 5m - 6 = 15
m - 21 = 15
m = 36
