Answer:

The radius of the pie is 6.17 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arc length as a function of radius is

s = r·Ф, where Ф is the central angle in radians.

Here we know that the arc length is 7.85 in.  Assuming that the whole pie has been cut into 8 equal pieces, the central angle of one such piece is

2π / 8, or π /4 (radians).

thus, s = r·Ф, solved for r, is r = s/Ф

and in this instance r = (7.85 in)/(π/4).  Evaluating this, we get:

                                 r = 6.17 in

The radius of the pie is 6.17 in.

I'll solve 21, and you then should be able to solve the rest on your own!

Since ADC is 135, that means that that whole angle is 135 degrees. In addition, since angles ADB and BDC add up to ADC, we get ADB+BDC=ADC=135=11x+9+7x=18x+9. Subtracting 9 from both sides, we get 126=18x. Dividing both sides by 18, we get x=7. Plugging that into 11x+9=BDC, we get 11*7+9=77+9=86

Container A and container B are right circular cylinders. A has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches while container B
Bess [88]

Answer:

8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

RA = 4 in, RB = 2 in

oil height in A = hA = 2 in

Find oil height in B = hB

volume of oil in A = VA = π*RA² * hA

equal amount means volume of oil in B VB = VA

But VB = π*RB² * hB

so π*RA² * hA = π*RB² * hB

then

hB = hA *(RA/RB)² = 2 * (4/2)² = 8 in

masya89 [10]

Answer:

x ≤ 30

Step-by-step explanation:
