Answer:

The ferris wheel travelled 434.717 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the ferris wheel is a perfect circle, then it's height is the same as the diameter of the circle, therefore it's radius is:

radius = height/2 = 246/2 = 123 ft

The distance travelled by the ferris wheel is the same as the length of the arc created by a angle of (9pi/8). The length of an arc is given by:

length = r*(angle in radians)

length = 123*(9pi/8)

length = 434.717 ft

The ferris wheel travelled 434.717 ft.

Anna71 [15]

Answer: 0; Yes

-8 x 4.5 = -36

2 x 18 = 36

-36 + 36 = 0

since the product is zero, the vectors are perpendicular

Solve the system of equations by substitution <br><br> y = 2x + 1 and 3x + y = 16
Luden [163]

Answer:  y=7,x=3

Steps:

y = 2x + 1

3x + y = 16

Substitute y = 2x + 1

3x + 2x + 1 = 16

Simplify

5x+1=16

Isolate x for 5x + 1 = 16: x = 3

For y = 2x + 1

Substitute x = 3

y = 2 · 3 + 1

Simplify

y = 7

The solutions to the system of equations are:

y = 7, x = 3

Hope This Helps!
