A circular jogging track forms the edge of a circular lake that has a diameter of 2 miles. Johanna walked once around the track

at the average speed of 3 miles per hour. If t represents the number of hours it took Johanna to walk completely around the lake, which of the following is a correct statement?
A. 0.5< t < 0.75
B. 1.75< t < 2.0
C. 2.0 < t < 2.5
D. 2.5 < t < 3.0
E. 3 < t < 3.5

Answer:

  C.  2.0 < t < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  time = distance / speed

The circumference of the lake is given by ...

  C = πd = 2π miles ≈ 6.28 miles

Then Johanna's time is ...

  (6.28 mi)/(3 mi/h) ≈ 2.09 h

This time is in the interval (2, 2.5), so matches choice C.

___

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If we take pi to be 3, then this boils down to ...

  2×3/3 = 2 . . . hours

Pi is on the order of 5% more than 3, so her time will be on the order of 5% more than 2 hours, or just above 2, but not as great as 2.5 hours. This sort of estimating can get you to the correct answer without a calculator.

The line graphed below has a slope of ____.<br><br><br><br> -3<br> -1/3<br> 1/3<br> 3
goblinko [34]
The line drops 3 squares for each one it moves to the right, so the slope is
.. -3/1 = -3

The 1st selection is appropriate.

_____
Given the choices, you can tell at a glance that -3 is the correct one. When it goes down to the right, the slope is negative. when the angle is steep, the slope has a magnitude greater than 1. Of the negative choices offered, {-3, -1/3}, the obvious choice is -3.

A line has a slope of ±1 when it makes a 45° angle with the x- and y-axes. Steeper than that is a slope whose magnitude is greater than 1. Shallower than that, and the slope has a magnitude less than 1.

What is the surface area of the triangular prism shaped toy car ramp
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

400 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area= summation of area of all the faces the object has

out object has 2 triangular faces, and 3 rectangular faces

S.A = 2(0.5bh) + LW +LW+LW

= 2(0.5 x 8 x 15) + (15x7) + (17 x 7) + (7×8)

= 120+105+119+56

= 400 square inches
