Answer:
The perimeter of the hexagon is 48.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the perimeter of a regular hexagon, given the length of its apothem and its area value
Recall;
Mathematically the area of a regular hexagon A = 1/2 * P * a
where P is the perimeter of the hexagon which is unknown according to the question, a is the apothem of the hexagon which is 7 feet and A is the area which is 169.74 sq.feet according to the question
Plugging these values into the equation, we have;
169.74 = 0.5 * 7 * P
P = 169.74/3.5
P = 48.50 ft
Factor the numbers, starting from the smallest:
792=2*3*3*11*4
990=2*3*3*11*5
the greatest whole number that can be divided by both 792 and 990 is 2*3*3*11=198
the smallest whole number that can divide both 792 and 990 exactly is 2*3*3*11*4*5=3960
Not sure which one you are asked to find.
After clarification we see the respective diameters are


We're asked about the ratio

Now we can go through the choices.
A. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell a is 100 times greater than cell b.

It would be more proper to say the diameter of cell A is 100 times the diameter of cell B, but yes, this is TRUE.
B. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell b is 100 times greater than cell a.
FALSE. 10 to the minus 4 is 100 times bigger than 10 to the minus 6, so a is bigger.
C. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell a is 2 times greater than cell b.
FALSE. We already calculated its 100 times bigger.
D. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell b is 2 times greater than cell a.
FALSE.
Given choices:
(1) division property of equality
(2) factoring the binomial
(3)completing the square
(4)subtraction property of equality
Answer : (2) factoring the binomial
Step 1: 
Step 2:![-c = a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20-c%20%3D%20a%5Bx%5E2%2B%5Cfrac%7Bb%7D%7Ba%7D%20x%5D%20%20%20)
In step 2, 'a' is taken out from
. when we take out 'a' we divide each term by 'a'. so it becomes ![a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20%20a%5Bx%5E2%2B%5Cfrac%7Bb%7D%7Ba%7D%20x%5D%20%20%20)
'a' is factored out in step 2. we call it as factoring a binomial.
Check the first picture below.
now, the exercise states to get it from the graph, so we have to graph it first.
Check the second picture below.
recall, the height in feet is on the y-axis, and the time in seconds is on the x-axis.
and rounded up to the nearest tenth will be 0.6.
