  1. [tex]Ratio = 7:6[/tex]

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Initially

    [tex]Joe = 12oz[/tex] -- coffee

    [tex]JoAnn = 12oz[/tex] -- coffee

    Joe drank 2oz coffee; So, we have:

    [tex]Joe = 12oz - 2oz[/tex]

    [tex]Joe = 10oz[/tex] --- coffee

    Joe added 2oz cream; So, we have:

    [tex]Joe = 10oz[/tex] --- coffee     [tex]Joe = 2oz[/tex] --- cream

    JoAnn added 2oz cream and stirred. So, we have:

    [tex]Joe = 12oz[/tex] --- coffee     [tex]JoAnn = 2oz[/tex] --- cream

    [tex]Total = 14oz[/tex]

    JoAnn drank 2oz from the drink; the amount of drink JoAnn drank is:

    [tex]JoAnn = \frac{Cream}{Total}[/tex]

    [tex]JoAnn = \frac{2}{14}[/tex]

    [tex]JoAnn = \frac{1}{7}[/tex]

    Amount of cream left is:

    [tex]Amount = [1- \frac{1}{7}] *2[/tex]

    Take LCM

    [tex]Amount = [\frac{7-1}{7}] * 2oz[/tex]

    [tex]Amount = \frac{6}{7} * 2oz[/tex]

    [tex]Amount = \frac{12}{7}oz[/tex]

    So, we have:

    [tex]Joe = 2oz[/tex] --- cream

    [tex]JoAnn = \frac{12}{7}[/tex] cream

    The ratio is:

    [tex]Ratio = 2:\frac{12}{7}[/tex]

    Multiply by 7

    [tex]Ratio = 14:12[/tex]

    Divide by 2

    [tex]Ratio = 7:6[/tex]

  3. circle area = pi * radius^2

    if diameter = 10 then radius = 5

    circle area = pi * 5^2

    circle area = pi * 25

    circle area = 78.5398163397 square units
