Given:

A Ferris wheel makes 1 revolution per minute, n = 1 rpm

so, the angular speed :

\omega=\frac{2\pi\cdot n}{60}=\frac{2\pi\cdot1}{60}=\frac{\pi}{30}

The linear speed of the seats on the rim of the wheel is 2.14 mph

so,

\begin{gathered} v=\omega\cdot r \\  \end{gathered}

convert from mph to ft/sec

hour = 3600 sec

mile = 5280 ft

so,

2.14\frac{mile}{hour}=2.14\cdot\frac{5280}{3600}\frac{ft}{\sec}=\frac{1177}{375}\frac{ft}{\sec }

so,

\begin{gathered} \frac{1177}{375}=\frac{\pi}{30}\cdot r \\  \\ r=\frac{30\cdot1177}{375\pi}=29.97 \end{gathered}

So, the answer To the nearest foot is r = 30 ft

Sam’s Swimming Pool Cleaning has an annual gross profit of $88,400. Sam charges $25 per week for each of his customers for 52 we
m_a_m_a [10]
To get how many customers Sam has, write an equation that will relate to the gross profit. Let n be the customers. Since for 52 weeks, Sam charges $25 per week per person, multiply n by the number of weeks and the charge. The equation is written as $88,400 = 52 weeks x $25 per week x n persons. Divide $88,400 by the product of 52 weeks and the $25 charge. The answer will be 68. The annual operating expense $48,000 is just there to make confusion.
