Let's say that the diameter was 1/2 mile. So the diameter is 1/2,  then you need to find the circumference, aka perimeter of the circle. So 1/2 times 3.14 = 1.57 miles So then you would do 1.57/2 = .785 of an hour If you round to nearest tenth The answer is .8 of an hour.

Answer:

It took Latisha <u>0.8 hour</u> to walk all the way around the crater

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we write the parameters which we were given in the question

diameter (d) = 1/2 or 0.5 mile, velocity (v) = 2 miles per hour, π = 3.14

circumference of a circle (C) = 2πr

But 2 x radius ⇒ diameter, hence,

circumference of a circle = πd ⇒ 3.14 x 0.5 = 1.57 miles

C = <u>1.57 miles</u>

Therefore, the circumference of the crater is <u>1.57 miles</u>

To calculate how long it will take her to walk all the way around the crater, divide the distance (circumference of the crater) by speed (velocity). Mathematically represented as:

t = C ÷ v

t = 1.57 ÷ 2 = 0.785 hour

t = <u>0.8 hour</u> (to the nearest tenth)

It took Latisha 0.8 hour (or 48 minutes) to walk all the way around the crater

Find the area of a parallelogram if a base and corresponding altitude have the indicated lengths.
Vitek1552 [10]
The answer is 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²

The area (A) of the parallelogram with altitude a and base b is:
A = a * b

We have:
A = ?
a = 6 in
Since 1 inch is 0.083 feett, then 6 inches is
a = 6 * 0.083 ft = 0.498 ft ≈ 0.5 ft = 1/2 ft
b = 1 1/2 ft = 1 + 1/2 ft = 2/2 + 1/2 ft = 3/2 ft
_______
A = a * b
a = 1/2 ft
b = 3/2 ft
A = 1/2 * 3/2 = 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week. Write and solve an equation to represent the number of minute
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Chore             time in minutes

Sweeping           42

Dishes                  ?

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week

Total of 70 minutes spent

42 minutes spent in sweeping . to find the number of minutes Amanda spent in washing the dishes , subtract 42 minutes from the total time spent

let x be the number of minutes spent washing the dishes

42+x=70

To solve for x , subtract 42 from both sides

42+x=70\\x= 70-42\\x=28

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.
