An 8-car Ferris wheel is shaped like a regular octagon. Does the Ferris wheel have rotational symmetry?

Mathematics
1 answer:
sleet_krkn [62]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Yes, it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every regular shaped figure will have rotational symmetry, since they are built with identical segments all around.

To find the answer, ask yourself « If I rotate the shape, is there a time where I’ll find the exact same shape again with a different angle? »

So, a square has rotational symmetry, but not a rectangle.

A equilateral triangle has rotational symmetry, but not any other type of triangle.

Find the perimeter of a regular heptagon with consecutive vertices at "A" (-2,-5) and "B" (1,-9)
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Perimeter is 35 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A heptagon has 7 equal sides.

Given the length of two consecutive vertices, A(-2-5) and B(1,-9).

We can find the length of AB and multiply by 7.

Recall the distance formula;

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The length of AB is

|AB|=\sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(-5--9)^2}

|AB|=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(4)^2}

\Rightarrow |AB|=\sqrt{9+16}

\Rightarrow |AB|=\sqrt{25}

\Rightarrow |AB|=5\:units

Therefore the perimeter is 7\times 5=35\:units.

Find the value of the term in the arithmetic sequence using an = a^1+ (n-1)d. 3,5,7,9,11, (8th term)
saveliy_v [14]
<h3>Answer:  17</h3>

=========================================================

Work Shown:

a1 = 3 = first term

d = 2 = common difference (since we add 2 to each term to get the next one)

Let's compute the nth term.

an = a1 + (n-1)*d

an = 3 + (n-1)*2

an = 3 + 2n-2

an = 2n+1

-----------------------

To check things so far, we can plug in something like n = 2

an = 2n+1

a2 = 2*2+1

a2 = 5

Showing that the 2nd term is 5, which matches with the sequence given to us

Let's check n = 3

an = 2n+1

a3 = 2*3+1

a3 = 7

That matches as well. I'll let you check the others.

-----------------------

Plug in n = 8 to find the 8th term

an = 2n+1

a8 = 2*8+1

a8 = 17

The eighth term is 17, which is the final answer.

-----------------------

You could extend out the given sequence by adding 2 each time until you reach the 8th term

3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17

Though this method is slow if you need to find say the 38th term

Two teams are selling candy bars to raise money. Team A has $165 saved and they are selling each candy bar for $2. Team B has $7
devlian [24]

Answer: Each have to sell 91 candy bars to have the same amount of money.

Step-by-step explanation: Suppose x represents the amount of candy bars.

Team A already have $165 and they are selling each candy bar for $2. The mathematical equation that represents the amount of money they have is

A: 165 + 2x

Team B initially has $74 and will sell each candy bar for $3. Then, the mathematical equation representing their amount of money is

B: 74 + 3x

So, to have the same amount of money:

165 + 2x = 74 + 3x

x = 165 - 74

x = 91

<u>Teams A and B will have the same amount of money when each of them </u><u>sell 91 candy bars</u>.
