For the circular cover we have:

A) The area is 379.94 ft²

B) The length of the rope must be 68.2 ft

<h3>How to get the area of the cover?</h3>

Remember that the area of a circle of radius R is given by the formula:

A = pi*R^2

Where pi = 3.14

In this case, the diameter of the pool is 20ft, then the radius is:

R = 20ft/2 = 10ft

And it must extend 12 inches beyond, then the radius of the cover must be:

R = 10ft + 12in

Now, we know that 1ft = 12 in, then we can rewrite the radius as:

R = 10ft +1ft = 11ft

Then the area of the cover is:

A = 3.14*(11ft)^2 = 379.94 ft^2

B) now we want to get the length of the rope, we know that the rope runs along the cover, then the length of the rope must be equal to the circumference of the cover.

Remember that the circumference of a circle of radius R is:

C = 2*pi*R

Then the length of the rope will be:

C = 2*3.14*11ft = 68.2ft

The distance between the cities Atlanta and Indianapolis is 540 miles. A motorcycle's speed is 48 mph. For a car it takes 2.25 h
bezimeni [28]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

let they travel the distance between them alone

d = common distance traveled by both motorcycle and car = 540 miles

t_{m}= time taken by motorcycle to travel distance between them

v_{m} = speed of the motorcycle = 48 mph

time taken by motorcycle to travel distance between them is given as

t_{m}= d/v_{m}

t_{m}=540/48

t_{m}= 11.25 h



t_{c}= time taken by car to travel distance "d" =11.25 - 2.25 = 9 h

v_{m} = speed of the motorcycle

speed of motorcycle is given as

v_{m} = d/t_{m}

v_{m} = 540/9

v_{m} = 60 mph


when the car and motorcycle move towards each other, the relative speed is given as

v = v_{m} + v_{c}

v = 60 + 48

v = 108 mph

t = time taken to meet

Time taken to meet is given as

t = d/v

t = 540/108

t = 5 h

Find the value of x
hodyreva [135]
To find the value of x, compare the equal sides, As two angles are equal so the sides opposite to these angles are also equal.
Compare the sides.
9x-8=28
Add 8 to both sides
9x=36
Divide both sides by 9.
x=4

Answer: x=4
