192 pints a minute.

So we know the hose sprays 24 gallons of water a minute. We also know that 8 pints equal a gallon. So to figure out how many pints are in one minute, we multiply 8 x 24, since we have 24 gallons a minute and 8 pints equal a gallon.
This equals 192 pints a minute.

If p=(-3,-2) and q=(1,6) are the endpoints of the diameter of a circle find the equation of the circle

stira [4]

Answer:

The equation of the circle (x +1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²

 or 

The equation of the circle x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points end Points are p(-3,-2) and q( 1,6)

The distance of two points formula

P Q = $\sqrt{x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + ((y_{2} -y_{1})^{2} }$

P Q = $\sqrt{1 - (-3)^{2} + ((6 -(-2))^{2} }$

P Q = $\sqrt{16+64} = \sqrt{80}$

The diameter 'd' = 2 r

2 r = √80

= $\sqrt{16 X 5}$

= $4 \sqrt{5}$

r = 2√5

Mid-point of two end points

$(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2} , \frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2} ) = (\frac{-3+1}{2} ,\frac{-2 +6}{2} )$

= (-1 ,2)

Mid-point of two end points = center of the circle

(h,k) = (-1 , 2)

The equation of the circle

(x -h )² +(y-k)² = r²

(x -(-1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²

x² + 2 x + 1 + y² - 4 y + 4 = 20

x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y = 20 -5

x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y = 15

Final answer:-

The equation of the circle (x +1) )² +(y-(2))² = (2(√5))²

 or 

The equation of the circle x² + 2 x + y² - 4 y = 15

Joshua is 1.45 meters tall. At 2 p.m., he measures the length of a tree's shadow to be 31.65 meters. He stands 26.2 meters away

Lena [83]

Answer:

The height of the tree=8.42 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of Joshua, h=1.45 m

Length of tree's shadow, L=31.65 m

Distance between tree and Joshua=26.2 m

We have to find the height of the tree.

BC=26.2 m

BD=31.65m

CD=BD-BC

CD=31.65-26.2=5.45 m

EC=1.45 m

All right triangles are similar .When two triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

$\triangle ABD\sim \triangle ECD$

$\frac{AB}{EC}=\frac{BD}{CD}$

Substitute the values

$\frac{AB}{1.45}=\frac{31.65}{5.45}$

$AB=\frac{31.65\times 1.45}{5.45}$

$AB=8.42m$

Hence, the height of the tree=8.42 m
