Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting the 2 expressions

3b² - 8 - b(b² + b - 7) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3b² - 8 - (b³  + b² - 7b) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 3b² - 8 - b³ - b² + 7b ← collect like terms

= - b³ + 2b² + 7b - 8 ← substitute b = - 3 into the expression

= - (- 3)³ + 2(- 3)² + 7(- 3) - 8

= - (- 27) + 2(9) - 21 - 8

= 27 + 18 - 21 - 8

= 16

This figure is made up of a triangle and a semicircle.
salantis [7]
We know that

[the area of semicircle]=pi*r²/2
for r=3.5 units
[the area of semicircle]=pi*3.5²/2---> 19.24 units²

[the area of the triangle]=b*h/2
b=7 units
h=3 units
[the area of the triangle]=7*3/2-----> 10.5 units²

the area of the figure=19.24+10.50----> 29.74 units²----> 29.7 units ²

the answer is
 29.7 units ²

James is four years younger than Austin. If three times James' age is increased by the square of Austin's age, the result is 28.
lara31 [8.8K]
Let's use J for James's age and A for Austin's age. The equations are:

J = A - 4
3J + A² = 28

Just plug (A - 4) in the place of J in the second equation. This gives you:

3(A - 4) + A² = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 12 = 28
--> 
A² + 3A - 40 = 0
--> 
(A - 5)(A + 8) = 0
-->
A = 5 or -8

-8 is nonsense, so Austin is 5 years old. Therefore, James is 1 year old.
