If the area of a square is 9, then the perimeter of the
square is

Answers

Answer:

12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length = sqrt 9 = 3

so the perimeter = 4*3 = 12.

Hi there!  

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:  

12 units.  

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

The formula for area of a square is:

[tex]A=s^2\\\\\boxed{\text{Key:}}\\\\s-\text{Side length given.}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

We are given the area of the square, 9. To find the side length of the square, required to get the perimeter, we would have to take the square root of 9.

Recall that the area of a square is the square of it's side length. [tex](s^2)[/tex]⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Finding the side length of the square:}}\\\\\rightarrow S=9\\\\\sqrt{9}=3\\\\\rightarrow S=\boxed{3}^2[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The side length of the square is 3 units.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The formula for perimeter of a square is:

[tex]P=4(s)\\\\\boxed{\text{Key:}}\\\\s-\text{Side Length}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

We have previously calculated the side length of the square, which is 3.We would have to multiply 3 by 4 to get the perimeter.

Recall that the perimeter of a square is 4 times the side length. [tex]4(s)[/tex].

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Finding the perimeter of a square:}}\\\\P=4(3)\\\\\boxed{P=12}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The perimeter of the square is 12 units.

12. Each section of the line on each side is identical (shown by the marks through each line)

This means both those angles are also the same.

6x + 1 = 9x-23

Add 23 to both sides

6x + 24 = 9x

Subtract 6x from both sides

24 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

X = 8

13. Both angles when added together need to equal 180

5x-24 + 8x +9 = 180

Combine like terms

13x -15 = 180

Add 15 to both sides

13x = 195

Divide both sides by 13

X = 15

#12

6x+1=9x-233x=24x=8

What is the approximate area of the shaded portion of the diagram? (Use 3.14 as an estimate for pi.)

Answers

Answer:

218

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the area of the circle-

[tex]A=\pi r^{2} \\A=\pi 10^{2} \\A=100\pi \\A=314[/tex]

to find the area of the triangle, we need the base and the height. The base we know is 16, since we don't know the height yet, use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height. One leg is 16 the hypotenuse is 20 (2* the radius).

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\a^{2} +16^{2} =20^{2} \\a^{2} +256=400\\a^{2} =144\\a=12[/tex]

Now I know the height is 12. Find the area of the triangle

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} bh\\A=\frac{1}{2} (16)(20)\\A=96[/tex]

subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the circle

314-96=218

14. A company uses many different delivery
services. The probability that any given parcel
will be sent by the ABC Speedy Delivery Service
is 0.71. The probability that the parcel will arrive
on time given the ABC Speedy Delivery
Company was used is 0.93. If a parcel is
randomly selected, find the probability that it will
be sent with the ABC Speedy Delivery Company
and arrive on time.

Answers

Answer:

0.6603 = 66.03% probability that it will be sent with the ABC Speedy Delivery Company and arrive on time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Sent by ABC Speedy Delivery Service.

Event B: Arrived on time.

The probability that any given parcel will be sent by the ABC Speedy Delivery Service is 0.71.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.71[/tex]

The probability that the parcel will arrive on time given the ABC Speedy Delivery Company was used is 0.93.

This means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.93[/tex]

Find the probability that it will be sent with the ABC Speedy Delivery Company and arrive on time.

This is [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(B|A)*P(A) = 0.93*0.71 = 0.6603[/tex]

0.6603 = 66.03% probability that it will be sent with the ABC Speedy Delivery Company and arrive on time.

Your neighbor agreed to trudge through the snow to buy snow shovels for 10 families on your street! The store owner gave him a discount of $2 for each snow shovel, but it still cost your neighbor $85. Your family surprised two of your neighbors and paid for their shovels along with their own. How much does your family owe your neighbor for the three shovels?

Answers

Answer:

$17

Step-by-step explanation:

We are assuming that snow shovels for 10 families means 10 shovel in total. If the manager is offering $2 discount per shovel, and there are ten shovels, then that is a 20 dollar discount. 85, the cost after discount, plus 20 is 105. 105/10=10.5. Your family is offering two pay for two shovels, so the total for you would come to $21, but there is the $2 discount, so subtract 4 dollars, and you have $17.
