If you are offered one slice from a round pizza (in other words, a sector of a circle) and the slice must have a perimeter of 28

inches, what diameter pizza will reward you with the largest slice

Answer:

The diameter that will reward with the largest pizza is 14 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a sector of a circle is:

P = 2r + l

l = rθ

P = 2r + rθ

P=28 inches

28=2r + rθ

28-2r=rθ

θ=(28-2r/r)

=(2*14 - 2*r)/r

=2(14-r)/r

Area of the sector of the circle is:

A = r²/2 * θ

A = r²/2 * 2(14 - r)/r

A = r² * (14 - r)/r

A = r(14 - r)

A = 14r - r²

For the maximum area:

A = 14r - r²

A' = 14 - 2r

Set A' = 0

14 - 2r = 0

14= 2r

r = 7 in

The diameter (D) of the circle is twice of the radius:

D = 2r = 2 * 7= 14 in

The maximum area is:

A = 14r - r²

r = 7 in

A = 14 * 7 - 7²

A = 98 - 49

A = 49 in²

Find and irrational number between 7.7 and 7.9
patriot [66]
An irrational number is a number that can't be written as a rational number

to undestnad that, I will define what a rational number is
a rational number is a number that can be written in the form a/b where b≠0
repeating decimals are not irrational because the repeat can be made into a fraction, example: 0.1111111111=1/9

some common irrational numbers are pi or e or √2

a cheat way to make an irrational number between 7.6 and 7.7 would be this
I will make in terms of pi because the expanded form will be infinite since pi has infinite digits

find the bounds
I will do pi times c=that number
find teh bounds of c
7.6/pi≈2.419
7.9/pi≈2.514
so a number between 2.419 and 2.514 is 2.5, a nice number

so we can say that 2.5π is an irrational number between 7.6 and 7.9 (it evaluates to about 7.8539816339744830961566084581988....

Find the value of X<br> (5x+4)°+(8x-71)°
NikAS [45]

Answer:

x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(5 x + 4) (8 x - 71) = 0

Split into two equations:

5 x + 4 = 0 or 8 x - 71 = 0

Subtract 4 from both sides:

5 x = -4 or 8 x - 71 = 0

Divide both sides by 5:

x = -4/5 or 8 x - 71 = 0

Add 71 to both sides:

x = -4/5 or 8 x = 71

Divide both sides by 8:

Answer:  x = -4/5 or x = 71/8

faltersainse [42]
-4 > x -7

Move the "-7" to the left hand side which will also change the sign
-4 + 7 > x ( "-4 + 7" is the same as "7 - 4")

3 > x OR x < 3 (3 is greater/bigger than x which also means x is smaller/lesser than 3)

They are both incorrect.
