The answer to this equation is 8^5
Draw a cartesian plane, create a graph with the equation x = y^2 - 2
then substitute numbers into the equation so that it is true, to find points on the graph, e.g. substitute y with 1, you get
x = 1^2 - 2
x = 1 - 2 = -1, so when y = 1, x = -1, this point is (-1, 1)
for the next substitute y with 2,
x = 2^2 - 2
x = 4 - 2 = 2, the point is (2, 2)
you might want to try negative values of y
y = -1, x = (-1)^2 - 2
x = -1 the point is (-1,-1)
then plot the points on the graph
The total fabric Morgan needs to cover the cushions will be 19.64 square feet.
It is given that each cushion has a circumference of 7.85 feet.
It is known that the circumference of a circle = 2πr, where 'r' is the radius of the circle.
2πr = 7.85
r = 1.25
<h3>What is an area of a circle?</h3>
area of a circle is πr².
now, we can calculate the area = π× 1.25² = 4.91 square feet
since each circular cushion has two circular faces so the total number of faces Morgan needs to cover will be 4.
Therefore, the total fabric needed= 4×4.91 = 19.64 square feet.
