A garden has a circular border and a fountain in the center. I measured the distance from one side of the garden to the other, g

oing through the center of the fountain, and found that it was 1.2 feet. How long is the border of the garden? Round your estimate to the nearest whole number and include units.

Answer:

The length of the border is approximately 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the garden has a circular border we can apply the formula for the circle's length, which is shown below:

length = 2*\pi*radius

Where the radius is half the diameter. The diameter is the distance between two points in the circle going through the center, therefore for this garden the diameter is 1.2 feet and the radius is 0.6 feet. Applying this to the formula gives us:

length = 2*\pi*0.6\\length = 1.2*\pi\\length = 3.8

The length of the border is approximately 4 feet.

Answer:

The mean absolute deviation of a dataset is the average distance between each data point and the mean. It gives us an idea about the variability in a dataset. ... Step 2: Calculate how far away each data point is from the mean using positive distances.

The initial population of a town is 4100​, and it grows with a doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in 8 ​year
Marianna [84]
If the population is doubling every 10 years, the rate of change is 100%, for the period of 10 years, so, whatever it happens to be at the time, it grows by 100%, namely it doubles.

\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &4100\\
r=rate\to 100\%\to \frac{100}{100}\to &1.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &8\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=4100(1 + 1)^{\frac{8}{10}}\implies A=4100(2)^{\frac{4}{5}}\implies A=4100\sqrt[5]{2^4}

what is (5.91 x 10^-3) - (8.7 x 10^10) written in a scientific notation? Please answer asap thank you :))
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

\left(5.91\times \:10^{-3}\right)-\left(8.7\times \:10^{10}\right)

\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a

=5.91\times \:10^{-3}-8.7\times \:10^{10}

as

5.91\times \:10^{-3}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^{-b}=\frac{1}{a^b}

=5.91\times \frac{1}{10^3}

=\frac{5.91}{1000}

=0.00591

similarly

8.7\times \:10^{10}

Convert element to a decimal form

10^{10}=10000000000

so

=10000000000\times \:8.7

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:8.7\times \:10000000000=87000000000

=87000000000

Thus, the expression becomes

\left(5.91\times \:\:10^{-3}\right)-\left(8.7\times \:\:10^{10}\right)=5.91\times \:\:10^{-3}-8.7\times \:\:10^{10}

                                                =0.00591-87000000000

                                                =-86999999999.9941

Hence,

<em>converting -86999999999.9941 in a scientific notation</em>

In order to make our job easier we will remove the sign "-" from number -86999999999.9941 (we will write "-" at the final solution). So after this step we have:

<em>−86999999999.9941  ⟶  86999999999.9941</em>

<em></em>

In order to write number 86999999999.9941 in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point from its current location (black dot) to the new position such as:

<em>8.6999999999.9941</em>

<em />

So, we need to move the decimal point 10 places to the right.

This means that the power of 10 will be positive 10.

Now we have that the

Number part = 8.69999999999941 and

Exponent part = 10

Thus, we conclude that:

−86999999999.9941 = − 8.69999999999941 × 10¹⁰

none of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS - only two legs are defined so this doesn't apply

SAS - the two legs of one triangle are not proportional to the legs of the other triangle.

AA - only one angle is defined to be congruent to the other (the rule requires two)
