700 rotations
If the radius is 1 foot, the diameter is 2 feet (twice the radius). The circumference of a circle is pi times the radius. Using 22/7 as pi, the circumference of each tire is (22/7)*2 feet. That is the same as 44/7 feet.
If the car is going 4400 feet per minute, the tires will "rotate 4400 feet from the circumference" - if you know what I mean. The tire completes one rotation every 44/7 feet. So, in 4400 feet it will complete (4400)/(44/7) feet. That is equal to 4400*7/44. Put that in a calculator and you get: 700.

Why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get bigger while fractions raised to an exponent get smaller
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

when you multiply a whole number by itself it will obviously get bigger.

4 to the 2nd power equals 16 because 4x4 = 16

if you were to multiply a smaller number though, it wouldn't get as big.

Each number you put to the same exponent will not get bigger at the same rate since each number isnt being multiplied by the same thing.

ex. 4 and 6 are raised to the second power both dont get multiplied by the same number 4 is multiplied by 4, and 6 by 6, therefore the bigger the number the bigger it grows.

Fractions get smaller for this reason when you have the fraction 2/3 raised to the second, both numbers must be raised. 2 to the second equals 4 while 3 to the second is 9.

1/2 to the second would then equal 1/4 since 1 to the second equals 1 and 2 to the second equals 4.

Z varies jointly with x and y. when x=2 and y=3, z=60. what is the value of z when x=4 and y=9?
laiz [17]
<span>Z $ xy then Z = Kxy. When x = 2 and y = 3, and Z = 60, our constant of variation becomes 60 = K * 2 * 3 K = 10. Our constant of proportionality equals 10. We would need that in the second part of the equation. When x = 4 and y = 9, we have Z = 10 * 4 * 9 = 360</span>
