Find the area and the circumference of the circle. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth.

Alik [6]

Answer:

$area = 200.96 \: {units}^{2} \\ circumfrence = 50.24 \: units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area and circumference of a circle is:

$area = \pi {r}^{2} \\ circumfrence = 2\pi \: r$

*note that pi is 3.14* Therefore the area is:

$formula = \pi {r}^{2} \\ 3.14 \times {8}^{2} = \\ 3.14 \times 64 = 200.96$

Therefore the circumference is:

$formula = \: 2\pi \: r \\ (2)(3.14)(8) = \\ 3.14 \times 16 = 50.24$

Find the value of z please help

Elza [17]

z + 93 = 180

z = 87

Answer z = 87

Here are the answer for x and y, in case you need them.

x = 2* 93 - 112

x = 186 - 112

x = 74

y = 2 * 80 - x

y = 160 - 74

y = 86

Factor this trinomial completely.

zmey [24]

First you want to write 7x as a sum or difference: 15x-8x
Now, the expression would look like this: 10x^2+15x-8x-12
Next, factor out the 5x and -4 from the expression: 5x(2x+3)-4(2x+3)
Now, factor out the 2x+3 from the expression and you have your answer:
(2x+3)(5x-4)
