Arc length s is given by s = r*theta, where theta is the central angle in radians (not degrees).

Here the diam. is 5 cm, so the radius is 5/2 cm. 60 deg = sqrt(3) / 2. Thus,

the arc length is s = (5/2 cm)*sqrt(3) / 2. This simplifies to (5/4) sqrt(3).

I think the answer will be 12 because 12 times 5 is 60°

Substitute all x in the equation to 1.6
∴6-4(1.6)=-1.6/4
∴-0.4=-0.4
∴Yes

A square mosaic is made of small glass squares. If there are 256 small squares in the mosaic how many are along an edge?

Degger [83]

To do this, you got to square 256.

The square root of 256 is 16.

Therefore, there are 16 small squares on each edge of the mosaic.

Kinda proof:

o o o o O
o o o o O
o o o o O
o o o o O
o o o o O

25 squares. Square root is 5. 5 along each edge. My work shares same concept.

Extremely unnecessary proof:

There are 256 squares, and you can count 16 on each edge. this shows 16 times 16, or 16 squared, which is 256.

If you invest $2,000 today in a bank that gives you a 4 percent annual interest rate, which of these items can you buy in seven

jeyben [28]

Just the Mountain bike, cause 4% of $2000 is, $80. and $80 for each year for 7 years make $560. now after 7 years your bank account has $2560. Therefore, you can buy a mountain bike, and have $60 left over, if there is no tax included. But if there is tax, your going to be still short by $115.(calculated according to florida's tax, that is 7%.) Anyways if the tax is over 2% you cant get that bike.

butalik [34]

Answer:

Regina has bought $2\frac{5}{8}\ pounds$ of apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of fruit brought = $8\frac{7}{8}\ pounds$

Now given number is in mixed fraction we will convert into improper fraction.

To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, we will Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator. Add that to the numerator,Then write the result on top of the denominator.

So we can say that;

$8\frac{7}{8}\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{71}{8}\ pounds$
