First, I'd like to say that this question is flawed because the diameter of the spool changes as you pull the line out. Some would argue it's negligible I suppose.
At any rate, assuming there's a magic spool where the diameter doesn't change, let's find the cicumference so we can find the length of one wrap around the spool.
circumference = 2*pi*r = 2 * pi * 4cm = about 25.133 cm
Now if it turns 16 times we'll have 16 times the circumference.
16 * (25.133 cm)
= 402.128 cm
Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.

Answer:</h3>
<u>If a rectangle and a triangle have the same area</u>.
Then,
- <u>L × B = 1/2 × B × H</u>
- 10 × 3 = 1/2 × 6 × H
- 30 = 3 × H
- 30/3 = H
- 10 = H
<u>Hence, the height of triangle is 10cm</u>.

Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of males to females in a cycling club is 5:3.
1/3 of the males are under 18
2/9 of the females are under 18
The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is calculated as:
Male: Female = Male/Female
We are told in the above question:
1/3 of the males are under 18
2/9 of the females are under 18
Hence:
1/3 / 2/9
= 1/3 ÷ 2/9
= 1/3 × 9/2
= 3/2
The fraction of the club members that are under 18 is 3/2
