Answer:

  • Explained briefly below.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>For old circular garden:</u>

take the radius as r.

then use the formula to find area of circle: πr² ......this is old garden area.

<u>For new enlarged garden:</u>

the radius is twice the old radius so, radius = 2 * r = 2r ......enlarged radius

now find area for this new garden:  π(2r)² → 4πr²

In common fractions: (old garden)/(new garden)

                                : ( πr² ) / ( 4πr² )

                                 :    1/4

Answer:

  • 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Original diameter is d and new diameter is D and:</u>

  • D = 2d

<u>Area of original circle:</u>

  • A₁ = πd²/4

<u>Area of enlarged circle:</u>

  • A₂ = πD²/4 = π(2d)²/4 = πd²

<u>The ratio of areas:</u>

  • A₁ / A₂ =
  • πd²/4 ÷ πd² =
  • 1/4 ÷ 1 =
  • 1/4

6. Jessica bought a new suitcase. The sales tax was 4.5%. If the amount of
ra1l [238]

Answer:

$ 154

Step-by-step explanation

Let the value of suitcase=x

x × 4.5% = 6.93 (converted the question into equation)

x × \frac{4.5}{100} = 6.93 (converted the percentage into fraction)

x = 6.93 x \frac{100}{4.5} (took reciprocal of 4.5/100 after moving it to the other side of the equation)

x = \frac{693}{4.5} (multiplied the values)

x = 154 $ (simplified the fraction)

make it the brainliest and get 20 years of luck : )

What is 3⁴×3⁵ can anyone help me ​
CaHeK987 [17]

Let's look at the multiplication exponent rule.

x^a*x^b=x^{a+b}

Meaning that the exponents will add together when the same base is multiplied.

3^4*3^5=3^{4+5}=3^9

Hope this helps.

頑張って!
