When the expression 10^2021 − 2021 is evaluated, the result is a very large number. You probably do not have enough time to perform the calculation. So, in an
effort to save you some time and paper, instead of evaluating the expression
10^2021 − 2021, determine the sum of the digits in the difference. How do I do this pls

18,176

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure out an easier thing to do: 1000 - 2021 = 9,797.

Therefore, our answer will be like 9999999999999999999999997979. Out of all of these digits, there are only 2 that arent nines. We know the amount of digits since it's 10^2021 power. We will have one less since we are subtracting 2021. Therefore, 2020 digits in total. Now we know of those 2020 digits, 2 of them are 7, therefore 2018 of them are 9s. That means do 2018(9) + 2(7) = 14 + 18,162 =  18,176.

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
