A circular plot is watered by a sprinkler that rotates through it. The sprinkler only rotates through a semi-circle, or half of the whole circle.

Area of a circle: A = pi x r^2

r = 160 / 2 = 80

A = pi x 80^2

A = 6400pi / 2 = 3200pi

3200pi = 10053.0965

The area water is approximately 10,053 ft^2.

Hope this helps!! :)

Given the function f(x) = The quantity of 2x minus 5, divided by 3 , which of the below expressions is correct? (1 point) f−1(x)

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$f^{-1}(x)$ =the quantity of 3x plus 5 divided by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a function $f(x)=\frac{2x-5}{3}$

We have to find the correct expression

Suppose y= $\frac{2x-5}{3}$

$3y=2x-5$

$3y+5=2x$

$x=\frac{3y+5}{2}$

Therefore, $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{3x+5}{2}$

Answer: $f^{-1}(x)$ =the quantity of 3x plus 5 divided by 2

A household aquarium tank in the shape of a rectangular prism has a base length of 242424 inches (\text{in})(in)(, start text, i

Answer:

The absolute change in the height of the water is 9.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$l =24in$ --- length

$w = 15in$ --- width

$h =12in$ --- height

$V_1 = 900in^3$ --- the volume removed

Required

The absolute change in the height of the water

First, calculate the base area (b):

$b = l * w$

$b =24in * 15in$

$b =360in^2$

The height of the water that was removed is:

<em /> $H = \frac{V_1}{b}$ <em> i.e. the volume of the water removed divided by the base area</em>

$H = \frac{900in^3}{360in^2}$

$H = \frac{900in}{360}$

$H = 2.5in$

The absolute change in height is:

$\triangle H = |h - H|$

$\triangle H = |12in - 2.5in|$

$\triangle H = |9.5in|$

$\triangle H = 9.5in$

6. It took Todd 9 hours to paint 4 rooms.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

5 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

4 rooms = 9 hours

9 hours = 540 minutes

1 room = 540 ÷ 4 = 135 minutes

60 x 12 = 720 minutes (12 hours)

720 ÷ 135 = 5.33333

5.3333 estimated to nearest whole number = 5
