The weight needed to balance a lever varies inversely with the distance

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrews [41]3 years ago
5 0

Let w represents the weight and d represents the distance.

It is given that

The weight needed to balance a lever varies inversely with the distance from the fulcrum to the weight. A 120-lb weight is placed on a lever, 5 ft from the fulcrum.

w = \frac{k}{d}

Substituting the values of w and d, we will get

120= \frac{k}{5}
\\
k =600lb \ ft

Using the value of k which is 600, with the above equation and the given value of d which is 8, we will get

w = \frac{600}{8} = 75lb

Therefore the correct option is B .

Mr. aba builds a circular patio with a diameter of 12 feet he covers the patio with paving stones the cost of the paving stones
Sedaia [141]
1.) Find the area of the circle:
• Formula: A=pi•r^2

- To find the area of a circle, we need to have the radius, and since the diameter is 2x the length of the radius, the radius is 1/2 of the diameter.

Finding the radius: r=d/2

r=12/2

r = 6.

- Now that we know that r=6, we can substitute it into the formula:
• A=pi•r^2

A=pi•(6)^2

A=113.097

- The area of the circle is 113.097ft.^2. We know that a square foot is $10.50. So, we have 113.097 square feet at $10.50/sq. foot. This means that we will add $10.50 113.097 times. Therefore:

113.097 • 10.50 = 1,187.518

So, total, it will cost $1,187.518

the sum of the interior angle in a polygon is 40,500° what is the number of sides in the regular polygon
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

227 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon is S=180(n-2) where n is the number of sides. If S=40500, then we have our equation 40500=180(n-2) and we can solve for n:

40500 = 180(n-2)

225 = n-2

227 = n

Therefore, the number of sides in the regular polygon is 227.
