————————————————— - ————— = 0
(a + 3) • (a - 3) a + 3
Pull out like factors :
3a + 12 = 3 • (a + 4)

6
:
3 • (a + 4)
————————————————— = 0
(a + 3) • (a - 3)
3•(a+4)
——————————— • (a+3)•(a-3) = 0 • (a+3)•(a-3)
(a+3)•(a-3)
a+4 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation :
a = -4

Given:Ranger Station to Nature Center = 90°Nature Center to petting zoo = 40°Petting Zoo to Tennis Court = 120°Tennis Court to Pool = 65°Pool to Ranger Station = 45°radius = 1 mile
arc length = 2πr angle/360°
Ranger station to nature center.
arc length = 2 * 3.14 * 1 mile * 90°/360°arc length = 2 * 3.14 * 1 mile * 0.25arc length = 1.57 miles
Nature center to Petting Zoo
arc length = 2 * 3.14 * 1 mile * 40°/360°arc length = 2 * 3.14 * 1 mile * 0.11arc length = 0.70 miles
1.57 miles + 0.70 miles = 2.27 miles or 2.3 miles CHOICE B
There are 36 possible combinations that can occur when 2 dice are rolled. For the sake of this question, we'll count instances where dice 1 = 3/dice 2 = 2 and dice 1 = 2/dice 2 = 3.
Now, let's think about all of the possible ways a total of 5 could be rolled.
1 + 4
2 + 3
3 + 2
4 + 1
That's 4 possibilities to roll a total of 5 out of 36 possible outcomes.
4 / 36 = ? / 180
---Now, we need to use a proportion in order to figure out the possibilities out of 180.
36x = 720
x = 20
If you rolled a pair of fair dice 180 times, you would expect to roll a total of 5, 20 times.
Hope this helps!
