Given the following function:
![\text{ f(x) = }\sqrt[]{-x\text{ -2}}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%20f%28x%29%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B-x%5Ctext%7B%20-2%7D%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
y = f(x)
Therefore, let's complete the data table by substituting each x-values to be able to get the respective y-values,
We get,
At x = -2,
![\text{ y = f(x) = }\sqrt[]{-x-2}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%20y%20%3D%20f%28x%29%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B-x-2%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
![\text{f(-2) = }\sqrt[]{-(-2)-2}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7Bf%28-2%29%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B-%28-2%29-2%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
![\text{ = }\sqrt[]{2\text{ - 2}}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B2%5Ctext%7B%20-%202%7D%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
![\text{ = }\sqrt[]{0}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B0%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
Therefore, y = 2 at x = -2.
At x = -3,
![\text{f(-3) = }\sqrt[]{-(-3)-2}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7Bf%28-3%29%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B-%28-3%29-2%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
![\text{= }\sqrt[]{3-2}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3-2%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
![\text{= }\sqrt[]{1}\text{ + 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7B%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B1%7D%5Ctext%7B%20%2B%202%7D)
Therefore, y = 3 at x = -3.
At x = -6,
"One rotation" would be the circumference of the wheel, which is
C = 2*pi*r, or (here) C = 2*pi*(8 inches) = 16*pi inches.
1 ft
Convert this to feet: 16*pi inches times ---------------
12 inches
Here "inches" cancels out and you are left with (4/3)pi ft.
So, one rotation of the wheel moves you and your bike forward (4/3)pi ft.
Divide this into 700 feet:
700 ft 2100
------------- = --------- rotations = 525 rotations (answer)
(4/3) pi ft 4
Lets rule some out off the bat, shall we?
The first one you mentioned, a circle is a plane figure with no straight sides... I can name another shape with no straight sides... an oval.
The second one you mentioned, is a true statement
The third one you mentioned, a circle is from a point, not a line segment.
The last one mentioned is also a true statement.
