One of the many definitions of plug is "to insert something into a hole or vacant space." The first mention of it being used in mathematic equations listed in the Oxford English Dictionary is 1972 in Scientific American.

What is the radius of a sunflower with a circumference of 46 cm?
The formula is: circumference = 2 x pi x radius. As always when you use a formula, plug in the values you know and solve for the ones you don't. So plug in 46 for the circumference and solve for the radius. (You'll get that the radius = (circumference)/(2pi)).
How do you solve for one time constant?
You can solve for a one-time constant by using the formula t = RC. Read the math problem you are given carefully to determine what values to plug into the equation.
How do you perform the quadratic formula?
Put the equation into the following form: ax2+bx+c=0 Then plug the values for a, b, and c into the quadratic formula. Do the arithmetic to find the value for x twice, once using + after the -b in the numerator, and once using - after -b in the numerator. You will get two different values for x, one using + and the other using -. Give both possible values for x when you give your answer. Here is the quadratic formula: x= -b+-square root(b2-4ac)/2a
Why would you want to solve a literal equation for a variable when you could simply plug in known values and then solve the resulting linear equation?
if you solve by plugging in the known values ahead of time you won't have a general formula for the variable in the literal equation. Therefor if the known values change, you would have to start all over again, making each problem more individualized. Once the literal equation is solved for some variable, if the known values change all you have to do is plug in those new numbers to your literal equation, and out pops your answer
What is the perimeter of the rectangle with a length of 8 inches is 48 square inches?
You must first calculate the width, using the formula for the area of a rectangle (plug in the numbers you know into the formula, and solve for width). Once you know this, you can plug in the numbers in the formula for a rectangle's perimeter.

What is the density of a block of wood if the mass is 6.9 g and the volume is 2.4 cm3?
Use the formula Density = Mass/Volume. If you cant plug in the values...then your professor is not doing his job well.

How can you find the distance between two points on a coordinate grid?
This is the distance formula. Plug in your x and y values into this formula. it doesn't matter which coordinate is x1 or x2/ y1 or y2 for example: if your coordinates are (5,7) and (1,3) you can plug in: 5 for x1 and 1 for x2 then, 7 for y1 and 3 for y2 Whatever you get for d is your distance. Hope this helps! Good luck!

How do you determine if the points on a graph are invalid?
Plug the x-values into the original equation. If you get the same y-values, then the points are valid.
How do you do the Quadratic formula?
The general form of a quadratic equation is ax^2+bx+c=0. The quadratic formula is used to find the x intercepts of a parabola. It goes like this: x=(-b+or-the (square root of b^2-4ac))/2a. With a specific equation you plug the values for a, b, and c into the formula. It is best to use a graphing calculator. Hope this helps.
If know molar absorbance coefficient of a substance how can beer- Lambert law be used to determine the concentration of a subsatnce?
you would have to know the following values, Absorbance (A), Concentration (C), and cell length (l) and plug it into the formula A=eCl or C = A/Cl
Can I connect a iPod Nano to the stereo?
some stereos come with a little plug and others come with this plug that you have to have a cord for have fun.
