Step-by-step explanation:
This seems like you just want to figure out the circumference of the manhole cover. The formula for the circumference of a circle is pi (3.14) multiplied by the diameter (d) of the circle so, circumference=πd. (π is the symbol for pi and approx. equals 3.14)
Circumference = πd
= 3.14(d)
= 3.14(3)
= 9.42 ft.
The length of the brass grip-strip will be 9.42 ft.
If the problem was stated in terms of the radius of the manhole cover then the formula would be circumference = 2πr which is the radius multiplied by 2 then multiplied by pi.
The radius of a circle is the distance from the center to the edge and the diameter is the distance from one edge of the circle to the other passing through the center of the circle.
Well, if the grip strip were of no width and could be straightened out to a line (which a piece of rubber cut in a circle couldn't be), then the length of the grip would correspond to the circumference of the manhole cover.
Circumference = 2*PI*radius = PI*diameter so your answer is 3*PI feet long.

Answer:
the answer is: q = -2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
70 - q - q - 2q = 80
70 - 4q = 80
-4q = 10
q = -2.5
Answer:
C) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Line of best fit (trendline) : a line through a scatter plot of data points that best expresses the relationship between those points.
All the given options for the line of best fit are linear equations.
Therefore, we can add the line of best fit to the graph (see attached), remembering to have roughly the same number of points above and below the line.
Linear equation: 
(where 
is the slope and 
is the y-intercept)
From inspection of the line of best fit, we can see that the y-intercept (where x = 0) is approximately 8. So this suggests that options C or D are the solution.
We can also see that the slope (gradient) of the line of best fit is approximately -0.5 (as the rate of change (y/x) is -1 unit of y for every +2 units of x).
Therefore, C is the solution, and the closet approximation to the line of best fit is
