Answer:

54.514 rev/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Speed of the cable car = 12.65 miles per hour

Diameter of the rotating wheel, d = 6.5 feet

Now,

The speed of rotation of the wheel will be equal to the speed of the cable car

thus,

The speed of rotation of the wheel = 12.65 miles per hour

also,

1 miles = 5280 feets

1 hour = 60 minutes

Thus,

The speed of rotation of the wheel = \frac{12.65\times5280}{60}

= 1113.2 ft/ min

Circumference of the wheel = πd

= 6.5π feet

= 20.42 feet

Therefore,

The speed of rotation of the wheel in  revolutions per minute

=  1113.2 ÷ 20.42 rev/min

= 54.514 rev/min

Simplify (5 + 1)2 - (11 + 32) + 4.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick here is to know PEMDAS.

PEMDAS stands for: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

This is the order in which you should simplify a problem.

Parentheses:

   (5 + 1)^2 - (11 + 32) + 4

   (6)^2 - (43) + 4

Exponents:

   (6)^2 - (43) + 4

   36 - 34 + 4

We have no multiplication or division, so we can skip those steps.

Addition:

   36 - 34 + 4

   40 - 34

Subtraction:

   40 - 34

   6

So 6 is our answer.

17.1 ÷ (45 ÷ 100) =

(100 × 17.1) ÷ 45 =

1,710 ÷ 45 =

38;

so 45% of 38 = 17.1
