Answer: 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The blueprints for a police station show that one of the lamp posts has a motion detector on it, and that the equation describes the boundary within which motion can be sensed. :

(x+14)^2+(y-6)^2=9 → which is a equation of a CIRCLE.

When we compare it to the standard form of equation of circle i.e. (x-(-14))^2+(y-6)^2=3^2 , we get the radius of the circle = 3

Consider the lamp post as the center of the area covered by the detector.

Then the greatest distance a person could be from the lamp and be detected = Radius of the circular area

=3 feet.

Henry and Bailey plan to make key chains. They need foot of string and 5 beads for each key chain. Henry has $8 to buy string, a
Alona [7]

Answer:

72 Keychains

Step-by-step explanation:

120 feet = $3.25

divide 120 by 3.25 to find how much string can be bought with $1. The result is 36.923. Then multiply that number by the number of dollars allotted to buying string. 8*36.923= 295.384. This is the total number of feet of string they have. They use 1 foot for each key chain so they can make 295 keychains based on how much string they have.

35 beads = $2.59

Divide 35 by 2.59 to find how many beads can be bought with $1. The result is 13.514. Then multiply that number by the number of dollars allotted to buying beads. This comes out to 364.878. This means She can buy 364 beads. Each Key chain needs 5 beads so divide 364/5 getting a total of 72 keychains.

Since there aren't enough beads to make any more than 72 keychains, they can make a total of 72 keychains (even though there is extra string)
