The largest radius for the swimming pool is 15.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Circumference of the circular swimming pool built by Dan  = 95 feet

We need to determine the largest radius for the pool.

Step 2 :

Circle's circumference  is given by 2πr

Where r represents the radius

This shows that the radius is in direct proportion to the circumference. Hence the radius corresponding to the maximum circumference will be the largest possible radius

So we have 2πr = 95

=> r = \frac{95}{2\pi }  

=> r =   \frac{95}{2} × \frac{7}{22 }  where \pi  = \frac{22}{7}

=> r = 15.1 feet (rounded off to tenth of a foot)

Step 3 :

The largest radius for the swimming pool is 15.1 feet

<span>A medical researcher wants to investigate the amount of time it takes for patients' headache pain to be relieved after taking a new prescription painkiller. She plans to use statistical methods to estimate the mean of the population of relief times. She believes that the population is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 18 minutes. How large a sample should she take to estimate the mean time to within 4 minutes with 97% confidence?

n = [z*s/E]^2

At a grocery store, 7 apples and 2 oranges will cost $12.80. In addition, 6 apples and 3
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Equation 1: 7x + 2y = 12.8

Equation 2: 6x + 3y = 12

Cost of 1 apple: $1.60

Cost of 1 orange: $0.80

Cost of 1 orange: $Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the elimination method to solve this

Multiply equation 1 by 3

(7x + 2y = 12.8) x 3 = 21x + 6y = 38.4

Multiply equation 2 by -2

(6x + 3y = 12) x -2 = -12x - 6y = -24

The x terms will cancel each other out

21x + 6y = 38.4

-12x - 6y = -24

9x = 14.4

Divide by sides by 9 to isolate the x variable

9x/9 = 14.4/9

x = 1.6

This means an apple costs $1.60

Plug the new x into one of the original equations to find y; we'll use equation 1

7(1.6) + 2y = 12.8

11.2 + 2y = 12.8

Subtract 11.2 from both sides

11.2 + 2y = 12.8

- 11.2        - 11.2

2y = 1.6

Divide both sides by 2

2y/2 = 1.6/2

y = 0.8

This means an orange costs $0.80
