Use the circle-area formula A = πr². Substituting r = 7 gives A = π × 7² = 49π.
Percentage=(10/25)×100=40.00.
Subtract 9 from both sides and divide by 8: x = (65-9)/8 = 7.
By Vieta’s formula, the sum of the roots equals the coefficient 14.
aₙ=a₁+(n−1)d=8+(11−1)×1=18.

There are 2 favourable outcomes out of 10 equally likely outcomes, so P(red)=2/10.
The coordinate differences are 3 and 4, so the distance is √(3²+4²)=5.
f′(x)=3x²+14x. Substituting x=2 gives 40.
