Find the distance traveled by the tip of the second hand of a clock in one minute if the hand is 6cm long.

1 answer:

4 0

The circumference of a circle with radius 6 inches is 12π inches. 15 minutes is 1/4 of the circle which is 60 minutes Therefore the tip moves 1/4 of 12π = 3π inches In 25 minutes the tip moves (25/60)12π = 5π inches Yes, you can also use the formula s = rθ θ is the angle of rotation. 15 minutes is equivalent to 90 degrees or π/2 radians Therefore s = 6 inches(π/2) = 3π inches 25 minutes is equivalent to 25/60 x 360 degrees = 150 degrees = 5π/6 radians

6x + 11 = 21 Help I’m on a quiz and this question is so confusing

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step by Step Solution

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

6*x+11-(21)=0

Step by step solution :

STEP

Pulling out like terms

1.1 Pull out like factors :

6x - 10 = 2 • (3x - 5)

Equation at the end of step

STEP

Equations which are never true:

2.1 Solve : 2 = 0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2 Solve : 3x-5 = 0

Add 5 to both sides of the equation :

3x = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

x = 5/3 = 1.667

One solution was found :

x = 5/3 = 1.667

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Option D,four is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax withholding from the gross income of $951 is the gross income itself minus the income after tax withholding i.e $189 ($951-$762)

The percentage of the withholding =189/951=20% approximately

Going by the multiple choices provided,option with 4,189 dollars seems to the correct option as that is the exact of the tax withholding on Robert's gross income and his earnings fall in between $950 and $960
