2 Nine identical circles are cut from a square sheet of paper whose sides are 36 centimeters long. If the circles are as large as possible, what is the area
of the paper that is left after all the circles are cut out? Use 3.14 as an
approximation for π.

278.64cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the sheet left out = Area of the square - Area of the 9 circles

Area of the square = L^2

L is the side length of the square

A = 36^2

Area of the square = 1296cm^2

Diameter of a circle = 38/3 = 12cm

Area of a circle = πr²

r is the radius = 12/2 = 6cm

Area of a circle = 3.14(6)²

Area of a circle = 3.14 * 36

Area of a circle = 113.04cm²

Area of 9 circles = 9 * 113.04

Area of 9 circles = 1,017.36cm²

Area of the left over = 1296 - 1,017.36

Area of the left over = 278.64cm²

step-by-step explanation:

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
