So in the problem, the length of the chord there is the circumference of the tree. So in order to get the diameter of the tree, we must use the formula in getting the circumference of a circle that is stated as follows. 

C = 2pi *Radius

so first we need the get the radius of the tree which represent by this formula:

Radius = C /2pi = 8/6.2832 = 1.2732 ft 
Diameter = 2*radius = 2 * 1.27 32 = 2.5465 feet 

In summary, the diameter of the tree is 2.565 feet.

A school goes through 10 gallons of milk in 3 days.
Akimi4 [234]
G = gallons     d = days
10g = 3d
?g = 1d
1g = ?d
-------------
for gallons in a day, divide 10g = 3d by 3
d = 10/3 gallons
3 and 1/3 gallons in a day
---------------
for days per gallon, divide 10g = 3d by 10
g = 3/10 days
1 gallon lasts 3/10 of a day

Solve for p. <br> −160=22+8(3p−4)
Aneli [31]
-160=22+8(3p-4)
Use distributive property
-160=22+24p-32
-160=24p-10
Add 10 for both side
-160+10=24p-10+10
-150=24p
Divided 24 for both side
-150/24=24p/24
p=-6.25
Check:
-160=22+8(3p+4)
-160=22+8[3(-6.25)-4]
-160=22+8(-18.75-4)
-160=22+8(-22.75)
-160=22-182
-160=-160. As a result, x=-6.25. Hope it help!
