What is the the area of a sector of a circle with a radius of 9 centimeters and formed by a central angle that measures 120

27π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the complete circle

The area of the circle is equal to

A=πr²

we have

r=9 cm

substitute

A=π(9)²=81π cm²

step 2

Remember that the area of complete circle subtends a central angle of 360°

so

using proportion

Find the area of a sector formed by a central angle that measures 120°

81π/360°=x/120°

x=120°*81π/360°

x=27π cm²

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
