Please Help? A circle has an arc length of 5π in. The central angle for this arc measures π/3 radians. What is the area of the a

ssociated sector?

Answer:

The area of the associated sector is $\frac{25}{24}\pi \ in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the radius of the circle

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$C=5\pi\ in$

substitute and solve for r

$5\pi=2\pi r$

$r=2.5\ in$

step 2

Find the area of the circle

we know that

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=2.5\ in$

substitute

$A=\pi (2.5^{2})=6.25\pi\ in^{2}$

step 3

Find the area of the associated sector

we know that

$2\pi\ radians$ subtends the complete circle of area $6.25\pi\ in^{2}$

so

by proportion

Find the area of a sector with a central angle of $\pi/3\ radians$

$\frac{6.25\pi }{2\pi} =\frac{x}{\pi/3}\\x=6.25*(\pi/3)/2\\ \\x=\frac{25}{24}\pi \ in^{2}$

The scale of a map is 1:4 000 000. Hint: 1:4 000 000 means that 1cm on the map = 4 000 000 on the ground. The distance between L

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

325 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scale :

1 : 4 ,000, 000

1cm measure in map = 4000000 on the ground

From the map :

Distance between Leeds and London = 8.125 cm

The actual distance on ground can be calculated thus :

1cm = 4,000,000

8.125cm = x

Cross multiply

x = 32500000 cm

Converting to kilometers :

1 km = 100,000 cm

x = 32500000

Cross multiply

100,000x = 32500000

x = 32500000 / 100000

x = 325

Hence, actual distance between Leeds and London is 325 km

Answer:

$x>2$

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the following inequality;

$(x^2+x-3):(x^2-4)\geq1$

Rewrite in a fractional form so that it is easier to work with. Remember, a ratio is another way of expressing a fraction where the first term is the numerator (value over the fraction) and the second is the denominator(value under the fraction);

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}\geq1$

Now bring all of the terms to one side so that the other side is just a zero, use the idea of inverse operations to achieve this:

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}-1\geq0$

Convert the (1) to have the like denominator as the other term on the left side. Keep in mind, any term over itself is equal to (1);

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}-\frac{x^2-4}{x^2-4}\geq0$

Perform the operation on the other side distribute the negative sign and combine like terms;

$\frac{(x^2+x-3)-(x^2-4)}{x^2-4}\geq0\\\\\frac{x^2+x-3-x^2+4}{x^2-4}\geq0\\\\\frac{x+1}{x^2-4}\geq0$

Factor the equation so that one can find the intervales where the inequality is true;

$\frac{x+1}{(x-2)(x+2)}\geq0$

Solve to find the intervales when the equation is true. These intervales are the spaces between the zeros. The zeros of the inequality can be found using the zero product property (which states that any number times zero equals zero), these zeros are as follows;

$-1, 2, -2$

Therefore the intervales are the following, remember, the denominator cannot be zero, therefore some zeros are not included in the domain

$x\leq-2\\-2$

Substitute a value in these intervales to find out if the inequality is positive or negative, if it is positive then the interval is a solution, if it is negative then it is not a solution. This is because the inequality is greater than or equal to zero;

$x\leq-2$ -> negative

$-2$ -> neagtive

$-1\leq x$ -> neagtive

$x>2$ -> positive

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is the following;

$x>2$

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The probability that the cost is kept within budget or the campaign will increase sales is 0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the cost is kept within budget (event A) <u>or</u> the campaign will increase sales (event B) is the <u>union</u> of the probability of those two events. By basic properties of probability, this is:

P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P (B) - P(A ∩ B)

and for independent events:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)

So:

P(A ∪ B) = 0.80 + 0.40 - (0.80*0.40) = 1.20 - 0.32 = 0.88
