What is the diameter of the circle?

Hatshy [7]

Hello!

The circumference is the diameter multiplied by pi. To find the diameter we will divide the circumference by pi (3.14).

1,133.54/3.14=361

361 is the diameter of the circle.

I hope this helps!

Matt invests $1,669 in a saving account with a fixed annual interest rate of 2% compounded 12 times per year. How long will it t

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

It will take 4.84 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial amount that Matt invested was $1669. It means that principal is

P = 1669

It was compounded 12 times per year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 2%. So

r = 2/100 = 0.02

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.

A = 1,844.38

Therefore

1,844.38 = 1669(1+0.02/12)^(12×t)

1,844.38/1669 = (1.0017)^(12t)

1.1051 = (1.0017)^(12t)

Taking log to base 10 of both sides, it becomes

Log 1.1051 = log 1.0017^(12t)

Log 1.1051 = 12tlog 1.0017

0.043 = 0.00074 × 12t

0.043 = 0.00888t

t = 0.043/0.00888

t = 4.84 years

Solve 4(x - 3) - 2x - 1) > 0

fgiga [73]

Answer:

x > 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x - 3) - (2x - 1) > 0

4x - 12 - 2x + 1 > 0

4x - 2x - 11 > 0

2x - 11 > 0

2x - 11 + 11 > 0 + 11

2x > 11

2x ÷ 2 > 11 ÷ 2

x > 5.5

The area of rectangular field is 1440 sq meters and perimeter is 152 metre. Out of length or breadth which one is to be decrease

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of Rectangular field = 1440 sq. m

Perimeter = 152 m.

We need to find which one needs to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.

Solution:

Let length be denoted by 'l'.

Also Let width be denoted by 'w'.

Now we know that Area of rectangular field is given by Length times width.

framing in equation form we get;

$l\times w = 1440 \ \ \ \ equation\ 1$

Also we know that Perimeter of rectangular field is given by 2 times sum of Length and width.

framing in equation form we get;

$2(l+w) =152\\\\l+w =\frac{152}{2}\\\\l+w=76\\\\l=76-w \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Now Substituting equation 2 in equation 1 we get;

$l\times w =1440\\\\(76-w)w=1440\\\\76w-w^2=1440\\\\w^2-76w+1440 =0$

Now we will find the root by factorizing the same we get;

$w^2-36w-40w+1440=0\\\\w(w-36)-40(w-36)=0\\\\(w-36)(w-40) =0 \\$

Now solving for each to find the value of 'w' we get;

$w-36 =0\\\\w=36\\\\also \\\\w-40=0\\\\w=40$

So We can say that;

Width = 36 m and Length = 40 m

Now we need to find out of length or breadth which one is to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.

We know that square has all sides same.

So from the data we found we can say that if length is decreased by 4 then length and breadth(width) both will be equal.

So to find percentage decreased we will divide length to be decreased by total length and then multiply by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

percentage decreased = $\frac{4}{40}\times 100 = 10\%$

Hence If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.
