Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the digram attached.

Perimeter of the track = perimeter of the rectangle + perimeter of the 2semicircles

Perimter of a rectangle = 2(x+r) where:

x is the length

2r is the width of the rectangle = diameter of the semicircle

Perimeter of semicircle = 2πr/2 = πr

Perimeter of 2semicirle = 2πr

Perimeter of the track = 2(x+2r) + 2πr

r is the radius if the semicircle

Expand

Perimeter of the track = 2x+4r + 2πr

Perimeter of the track = 2(x+2r+πr)

b) Given P = 2(x+2r+πr), we are to make x the subject of the formula.

P = 2x+4r+2πr

P-4r-2πr = 2x

Divide both sides by 2.

(P-4r-2πr)/2 = 2x

x = (P-4r-2πr)/2

c) Given

P = 600fr

r = 50ft

x = (600-4(50)-2π(50))/2

x = (600-200-100(3.14))/2

x = 400-314/2

x = 86/2

x = 43ft

Hence the value of x to nearest foot is 43ft

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

As can be seen, there has been a rise in the proportion of the population with HIV positive, from 7.5% to 9.94%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a national organization sets out to investigate the change in prevalence of HIV since the last census in 2010, ya total of 4,706 participants were interviewed and a total of 468 responses were confirmed to be HIV positive, assuming that the data from the census indicated that the prevalence of HIV in the particular population was 7.5%, to determine if the proportion of the prevalence of HIV has changed (is equal to 7.5%) the following calculation should be performed:

4706 = 100

468 = X

468 x 100/4706 = X

46,800 / 4,706 = X

9.94 = X

Therefore, as can be seen, there has been a rise in the proportion of the population with HIV positive, from 7.5% to 9.94%.
