The Bible, a book that is considered the perfect word of a perfect god tells us what the value of Pi is. Let's see verse 1 Kings 7:23
 He also melted a sea of ​​ten cubits from one side to the other, perfectly round; Its height was five cubits, and a cord of thirty cubits encircled it.

 These are a list of specifications for the great temple of King Solomon, built about 950 BCE, and his interest here is that it gives a value of π = 3. If we divide 30 cubits between 10 cubits (which are the measures mentioned in written radical) gives us exactly 3.

 We know that the length of the circumference is calculated l = 2 · π · r; Since 2 · r is the diameter, it can also be said that

 circumference = diameter × π

 If we go back to what the Bible says, the diameter is 5 meters and the circumference of 15:

 circumference = diameter × π -> 15 = 5 × π

 with which the value of π is 3.

 This calculation of Pi is a bad approximation to the real value. The figure of 3 in the Bible compared with the real one which is 3.1416 ... indicates an error of about 6%.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Fiction books:  (1/6) of 30 books = 5 books

Non-fiction books:  (3/5) of (30) books = 18 books

The subtotal here is 5 + 18, or 23.  

23 of the books are either fiction or non fiction.

30 - 23, or 7, of the books remain (are neither fiction nor non-fiction).

The volume of a cylinder is 81 pi in^3 and the height of the cylinder is 1 in. What is the radius of the​ cylinder
ladessa [460]

Answer:

18/20π

Step-by-step explanation:

81π ÷ 1 = 81π

81π ÷2 = 18/20π

You do this because the radius is half of the diameter and you need to get rid of the hight by dividing it from the volume.
