First calculate the circumference. Usually this is the diameter times pi, but since we are told to estimate pi, the circumference equals 56 * 22/7 or 176 feet.
In 4 minutes, 4 * 60 = 240 seconds pass. In this time, a 20 second period will occur 240/20 = 12 times.
So we know that the rider rotates 12 times and each rotation takes them 176 feet, meaning that they will travel 12 * 176 =  2112 feet

2x - 11 = -8x + 14<br> Simplify
Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 11 = -8x + 14

Add 8x to both sides

10x - 11 = 14

Add 11 to both sides

10x = 25

Divide both sides by 10

x = 2.5

If a car traveling at 75 mph west, changes its direction to east, does it accelerate?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Yes, that's right, a change in the direction of motion results in an acceleration even if the moving object neither sped up nor slowed down. That's because acceleration depends on the change in velocity and velocity is a vector quantity — one with both magnitude and direction.

50 students were asked what they did last night. 16 said they read a book, 41 said they watched TV, 7 said they did neither, how
Kamila [148]

Answer:

14 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

b \to read a book

t \to watched TV

So, we have:

n = 50 -- total

b = 16

t = 41

none = 7

Required

Students that did both (x)

This is calculated using:

Total = Books\ only + TV\ only + Both + None

So, we have:

n = (b - x) + (t - x) + x + none

This gives:

50 = (16 - x) + (41 - x) + x + 7

Open brackets

50 = 16 - x + 41 - x + x + 7

50 = 16 - x + 41 +7

Collect like terms

x = 16 - 50 + 41 +7

x = 14

<em>Hence, 14 students did both</em>
