The length of the circle - <span>the product of the diameter and the number Pi
l = d</span>π
l = 900cm
π ≈ 3,1415 przyjmiemy wartość 3
900cm = d* 3   [:3
d = 300cm  
<span>Becky rounded value of Pi , hence the difference in result
</span>
<span>More accurate calculation
</span>
l = d*π
900cm = d*3,1415
d = 900cm : 3,1415 = 286,49cm

<span>Becky overestimated the outcome</span>

Yuri [45]
First of 30% of 2500kcal is 750kcal
if a male consumes 2.5 kcal then 750kcal / 2.5kcal = 300
but then we would need to know how many wheat are on one hectare of land.

I rent a gym for $150.00 for 30 students. Another time I rent the gym for $270.00 for 70 students. I need to find a fixed rate.
masha68 [24]

Answer: y = 3x + 60

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Set up two equations and solve the system:

 270 = 70x + b

- <u>(150 = 30x + b)</u>

  120 = 40x

    3   =  x

Input "x" into one of the equations and solve for "b":

150 = 30x + b

150 = 30(3) + b

150 = 90 + b

60 = b


Equation: y = 3x + 60

This means that there is a flat fee of $60 plus a rate of $3 per student

Ed is 7 years older than Ted. Ed’s age is also 3/4 times Ted’s age. How old are Ed and Ted?
svetlana [45]
Let Ted be x.

Ed is 7 years older =  x  + 7

Ed = (3/4)Ted

(x + 7) = (3/4)x

x + 7 = 3x/4

x - 3x/4 = -7

x/4 = -7

x = -28,           Ted = -28 years.

(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21,      Ed = -21 years

Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense?  No it doesn't.

Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.

<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>
