You can solve this analytically to get
.. 55000*(1 +x/100)^10 = 108193
.. (1 +x/100)^10 = 108193/55000
.. 1 +x/100 = (108193/55000)^(1/10)
.. x = 100*((108193/55000)^(1/10) -1) ≈ 7.00

but I find it just as fast to have a graphing calculator do it.

The city's population is increasing 7% per year.

The button on Carey's jacket has a diameter of 8 millimeters. What is the button's circumference?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

25.12 millimeters is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference can be solved by using the equation:

c = 2πr or c = πd

Note that diameter (d) is equal to 8. Plug in 8 for d.

c = (8)(π)

Also note that π = 3.14. Multiply

c = (8)(3.14)

c = 25.12 millimeters.

25.12 millimeters is your answer.

What is the area of the sector formed by RAP? The radius is 10 inches.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

≈ 39.3 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the sector is calculated as

A = area of circle × fraction of circle

   = πr² × \frac{45}{360}

  = π × 10² × \frac{1}{8}

  = \frac{100\pi }{8} ≈ 39.3 in² ( to 1 dec. place )
