How far does the tip of the minute hand of a clock move in 1 hour and 27 minutes if the hand is 2 inches long?

Nesterboy [21]

So, a full circle has 360°, thus when the minute hand does one hour, it does a full circle, therefore 360°.

now, how many degrees are there in 1 minute? well, there are 60 minutes in 360°, therefore there are 360/60 degrees in 1 minute, or 6°.

now, we know in 1 hour there are 360°, how many in 27 minutes? well, 27 * 6, or 162°. So after 1hr and 27min, the minute hand has done 360+162 or 522°.

we also know the minute hand is 2 inches long, thus

$\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\
s=\cfrac{\pi \theta r}{180}\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad degrees\\
------\\
r=2\\
\theta =522
\end{cases}\implies s=\cfrac{\pi \cdot 522\cdot 2}{180}$

which is roughly 18 inches rounded up.

Mr. Gonzales has only $42.50 to spend at a clothing store. He wants to buy a shirt that costs $29, including tax, and some brace

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: The equation is $29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50, and the solution is x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Gonzales has $42.50

He wants to buy:

a shirt that costs $29

some bracelets that cost $4.50 each.

The equation that we need to solve is:

Total cost = money that Gonzales has.

The cost is $29 + x*$4.50

where x is the number of bracelets he can buy.

The equation that we need to solve is:

$29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50

to solve it we must isolate x:

x*$4.50 = $42.50 - $29 = $13.50

x = 13.50/4.50 = 3

So we have that Mr. Gonzales can buy a total of 3 bracelets.

Are 4/16 and 0.25/2 equivalent numbers? If so, explain how they are.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Two fractions are equivalent if the product of the numerator of the first and the denominator of the second is equal to the product of the numerator of the second and the denominator of the first.
4 x 2 ___ 16 x 0.25
8 is not equal to 4
Thus, they are not equivalent.

To get from the post office to the library, Sindy walked due north and then due east. The distance Sindy walked east is 20 meter

Sidana [21]

Technically, none of the equations.

The equation you're looking for would be:

x²+(x+20)²=150²
