Answer:

The area of the shaded region is about 58.9 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, let's recall some facts.

We know that the area of a circle can be defined as the following:

A = \pi r^2

where r is the radius of the circle.

We too know that circles have a diameter and a radius. The diameter of a circle is the distance a line that connects two points on a circle with its center, and the radius is half of the diameter.

We also know that figures can touch each other, or be in tangent with each other. For the sake of simplicity, we're going to assume that the shaded circles are in tangent with each other, or touch each other. Because they touch each other, these three circles can share 5 in. of the 15 in. rectangle. This means that the circles are 5 in. in diameter, or 2.5 in in radius.

Now, we can solve the problem.

Because we have 3 circles, each with 2.5 in. radii, we can have the following expression which represents the total area of these circles:

3*\pi (2.5)^2

= 3*3.14(2.5)^2

= 3 *3.14 *6.25

= 58.875

After approximation, I can conclude that the area of the shaded region is 58.9 square inches.

Similar Triangles Question w/ Picture
melomori [17]

Answer:

EF=\dfrac{120}{7}\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles CEF and CAD are similar right triangles (they have the common angle, so by AA postulate they are similar). Similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides, so

\dfrac{EF}{AD}=\dfrac{CF}{CD}\\ \\\dfrac{EF}{40}=\dfrac{CF}{CD}

Triangles DEF and DBC are similar right triangles (they have the common angle, so by AA postulate they are similar). Similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides, so

\dfrac{EF}{BC}=\dfrac{DF}{DC}\\ \\\dfrac{EF}{30}=\dfrac{CD-CF}{CD}\\ \\\dfrac{EF}{30}=1-\dfrac{CF}{CD}

Substitute the fraction \frac{CF}{CD} from the first equality into the second equality:

\dfrac{EF}{30}=1-\dfrac{EF}{40}\ [\text{Muliply by 120}]\\ \\4EF=120-3EF\\ \\4EF+3EF=120\\ \\7EF=120\\ \\EF=\dfrac{120}{7}=17\dfrac{1}{7}\ ft

What happens to the mean of the data set {10, 2, 8, 9, 5, 2, 6} if the number 12 is added to the data set? A. The mean increases
Setler [38]

Answer:

C. The mean increases by 0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a data set is given by the sum of all its values, divided by the number of values.

Data set {10, 2, 8, 9, 5, 2, 6}

7 values

Sum: 10 + 2 + 8 + 9 + 5 + 2 + 6 = 42

Mean: 42/7 = 6

Adding number 12 to the data set

Now we have 8 values

The sum is 42 + 12 = 54

The mean is 54/8 = 6.75

This means that the mean increases by 0.75.
