Answer

16π cm ≈ 50.2655 cm

Step-by-step explanation

To find the circumference of a circle, we can use the equation C = 2πr.

C stands for the circumference while r stands for the radius. We can see that there is a proportional positive linear relationship between radius and circumference for all circles, and that to find circumference when we have a radius value, we multiply the radius value by 2π.

The value of π, also called pi, is a constant and is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter (the diameter is twice the radius, hence the 2 in the equation). Note that π is a constant and applies to all circles because all circles are similar.

Since we know the value of r, or the radius, given as 8 cm in the question, we can plug this value into the equation C = 2πr from earlier.

C = 2πr (plug in 8 cm for the radius)

C = 2π * 8

C = 16π cm

Since the radius is in units of cm (centimeters), the circumference is also in units of cm (centimeters).

16π cm is the exact value of the circumference. However, if we want this circumference in decimal form, we would multiply 16 by the decimal form of π which is approximately 3.1416. Note that π actually has an infinite amount of decimals and that this 3.1416 is actually a rounded π value

C = 16π

C ≈ 16 * 3.1416

C ≈ 50.2655 cm rounded to four decimal places

xenn [34]

Answer: Our required probability would be 0.9641.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours he works a day = 8

So, Number of minutes he worked in a day = $8\times 60=480\ minutes$

Number of calls = 220

So, Average $=\bar{x}=\dfrac{480}{220}=2.18\ minutes$

Standard deviation $=s=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{1.5}{\sqrt{220}}=0.10$

Mean = μ = 2.0 minutes

Standard deviation = σ = 1.5 minutes

Using the normal distribution, we get that

$z=\dfrac{\bar{x}-\mu}{s}\\\\z=\dfrac{2.18-2.0}{0.10}\\\\z=1.8$

So, the probability that Albert will meet or exceed his quota would be

$P(X\leq 2.18)=P(z\leq 1.8)=0.9641$

Hence, our required probability would be 0.9641.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

m<1= 120

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we know supplementary angles equals 180. the angle 130 is part of a supplementary angle so we can subtract it by 180 to see that missing angle.

2. we also know that all triangles three angles add up to 180. So if we add the number we know 70+50 (50 is from subtracting 130 from 180), Once we find that answer, we subtract it from 180 to find angle 2 which is 60 degrees

3. Last step, angle 2 is part os a supplementary angle in which the two angles add up to 180. So, subtracting 60 from 180 will get you the degree of the angel one which his 120 degrees.
