you forgot to include the fourth number -5 to make the whole thing negative: 10*9*8*-5 = 720*-5 = -3600

Q1.

Circumference of wheel = (pi)* diameter = 6(pi)
Total space for each cog = (pi)/16 + (pi)/16 = (pi)/8
Number of cogs that would fit on the wheel with diameter 6 cm = 6(pi) / (pi)/8 = 48

Q3.

2x + 5y = 2x + 5(3x/2) = 8 or x = 16/19
2x + 3y = 8 - 2y
2x + 3y = 8 - 3x = 8 - 3 * 16/19 = [spoiler]104/19[/spoiler]

Q4.

Image

Ht. of the wall = √(625 - 49) = √576 = 24 ft
When the ladder slips by 1 ft, ht of the wall = 24 - 1 = 23 ft
Then (25)^2 = (23)^2 + (7 + x)^2
625 = 529 + 49 + x^2 + 14x
x^2 + 14x - 47 = 0, which can be solved further to get x.
I don't think the question is giving the correct values, something is missing, check it at your end please.
