The diagram shows a circle inside a semicircle. The circle has a diameter of 10 cm.
The semicircle has a diameter of 20 cm.
Work out the area shaded.
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

the image is given below

since the options are not given so we draw it from the equation

the given equation is

y = (x-1) (x+4)

y = y² + 3x - 4

the above equation is a quadratic equation which will have two roots. if we draw the graph for it, it will look like this

one way is to plot 2 points and connect them which is what the answer choices seem to be doing

it seems to be using the y intercept and the slope

y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept (where the line hits the y axis)

slope=rise/run

y-intercept is where the line croses the y axis which is the y value where x=0

you seem to have given the wrong slope (you didn't put a number in front of te x, it should be 2/3 or 3/2 looking at the answer options)

y=? x-1

m=? because of your fault

b=-1

so it has a slope of ? and y intercept of -1, meaning it pases through (0,-1)

so draw point (0,-1) (so answer is one of the first 2 option)

if slope is 2/3, then go up 2 and right 3 then draw line through those 2 points

if slope is 3/2, then go up 3 and right 2 then draw line through those 2 points
