Answer:
6.3feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Radius= 4feet
The expression for the circumference of a circle is
C= 2πr
Substitute
C=2*3.142*4
C=25.136 feet
Also, a 90° arc is 1/4 of the circumference of a circle
Hence the length of the 90° arc is
=25.136/4
=6.284 feet
=6.3feet

Answer:
a) 91 1/6 gallons
b) 2502 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given a number of miles and a number of gallons for the car. The ratio of these numbers is ...
(261 mi)/(14.5 gal) = 18 mi/gal
We presume this value is constant for this car. Then the questions can be answered by forming and solving a proportion:
a) 1641 miles/(gallons) = 18 mi/(1 gal)
Multiplying by gallons and dividing by 18 mi/gal, we get
1641/18 gal = (gallons) = 91 1/6 gal
It will take 91 1/6 gallons of gasoline for Mary to drive to her friend's house.
___
b) Same deal, but the miles are unknown.
(miles)/(139 gal) = (18 mi)/(1 gal)
Multiplying by 139 gal gives ...
(18 mi)·139 = (miles) = 2502 mi
139 gallons of gasoline will let Mary drive 2502 miles.
