You can solve this by setting up a proportion. You can put the number of items correct over the total number. and substitute the unknown number with x.

$\frac{85}{100}$ = $\frac{x}{40}$ Cross-multiply
3400 = 100x Divide both sides by 100
34 = x

40 - 34 = 6

So, Jill got 6 questions wrong.

Help center of circle

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Center = (7, - 5)

Radius = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 14x - 10y + 65 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + 14x + {y}^{2} - 10 + 65 = 0 \\ ( {x}^{2} + 14x + {7}^{2}) - {7}^{2} + ({y}^{2} - 10y + {5}^{2}) \\- {5}^{2} + 65 = 0 \\ (x + 7)^{2} + (y - 5)^{2} - 49 - 25 + 65 = 0 \\ (x + 7)^{2} + (y - 5)^{2} - 49 + 40= 0 \\ (x + 7)^{2} + (y - 5)^{2} - 9= 0 \\ (x + 7)^{2} + (y - 5)^{2} = 9 \\ (x + 7)^{2} + (y - 5)^{2} = {3}^{2} \\ equating \: it \: with \: \\ (x - h)^{2} + (y - k)^{2} = {r}^{2} \\ - h = 7 \implies \: h = - 7 \\ - k = - 5 \implies \: k = 5 \\ center = ( - h, \: - k) = (7, \: \: - 5) \\ \\ radius \: r = 3$

A bicyclist races on a bicyclist with 13-inch-radius wheels. When she is traveling at a speed of 37 ft/sec, how many revolutions

drek231 [11]

Radius of a wheel = 13 inch
= 1.08333 ft
circumference of a wheel = 2×pi×r^2
= 2 × (22/7) × 1.08333^2 ft
= 2 × (22/7) × 1.1736 ft
= (44/7)×1.1736 ft
= 51.6384/7 ft
= 7.3769142857 ft
distance covered in one minute = 37 × 60 ft/min
= 2220 ft/min
now, revolution per minute = 2220 / 7.3769142857
= 300.93884
therefore her wheels are making 300.93884 revolutions per minute
