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

Jenna is at a fair with four friends. They all want to ride the roller coaster, but only three people can fit in a car. How many
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

They can make 10 different groups of three.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the people are in the car is not important, so we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

How many different groups of three can the five of them make?

Combinations of 3 from a set of 5. So

C_{5,3} = \frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!} = 10

They can make 10 different groups of three.

The ______________ probability of an outcome is obtained by dividing the frequency of occurrence of an event by the number of tr
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Empirical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical probability is data collected from experiment and real-life situation.

The "empirical probability" of an outcome is obtained by dividing the frequency of occurrence of an event by the number of trails of the experiment.

\Longrightarrow: \sf{P(E)=\dfrac{\text{number of times event occured}}{\text{number of trails}}

  • <u>Therefore, the correct answer is empirical probability.</u>

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
