Answer:

18 divided by 2/9, or 18/(2/9) (Is this what the first option was meant to say?)

Step-by-step explanation:

18 inches is the amount of space that needs to be filled, or divided up into sections to see how many things can fit.

2/9 is the width of the thing that you need to see how many fit, meaning it's the thing you're dividing by.

Combined, this means your expression is 18 divided by 2/9, or 18/(2/9). I think this is what your first option was meant to say, because if it is what it says, then the first and second option would be the exact same wrong thing.

You DON'T multiply, because if you think about easy numbers, an inch thick book should have 18 fit, and a half-inch thick book should have double that fit. As you get a <em>smaller</em> book, the number that fit increase, which can't happen with multiplication.

You also don't start with 2/9 because that's the width of the book. You're not trying to see how many boxes can fit into each book; that'd be ridiculous.

slava [35]

Answer:

60.39 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A Pac-Man poster which is having three fourth of a circle and there are two sides.

Diameter of circle = 18 inches

Sides of Pac-Man poster = 9 inches

To find:

Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster.

Solution:

Perimeter of a figure is nothing but equal to the periphery i.e. the outer area of the circle/figure.

Perimeter of a circle is given by the formula:

Perimeter = 2\pi r

r is the radius of the circle.

Radius is half of perimeter.

r=\dfrac{18}{2} = 9\ inches

Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster = Perimeter of \frac{3}{4} circle + 2 sides

Perimeter of the Pac-Man poster = \frac{3}{4}\times 2\times \pi \times 9  + 9+9 = 42.39+28 = <em>60.39 inches</em>

Evaluate fog and gof if f(x)=5x-8 and g(x)= x^3
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

note that f ○ g = f(g(x))

To evaluate substitute x = x³ into f(x)

f(g(x)) = f(x³) = 5x³ - 8

In the same way

g ○ f = g(f(x))

To evaluate substitute x = 5x - 8 into g(x)

g(f(x)) = g(5x - 8) = (5x - 8)³
