Safety regulations require that the time between airplane takeoffs (on the same runway) will be at least 2 minutes. When taking

Answer:

1 plane

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Total rate at which planes take off TR = 14 planes / hr

- Waiting time WT = 4.4 minutes

- Run Time RT = 0.4 minutes

Find:

- How many planes are either on the runway or waiting to take off

Solution:

- Compute the total time i.e WT and RT:

                 Total Time TT = (WT + RT) / 60

                                    TT = (4.4 + 0.4) / 60

                                    TT = 4.8/60 = 0.08 hrs

- Total number of planes either waiting or on run-way are:

                 No. planes not taken off N = TT * TR

                                                          N = 0.08*14

                                                          N = 1.12 plane ≈ 1 plane

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

I have attached the formula solved for years (or time).

We'll say principal = 100 and total = 200

Years = ln (200 / 100) / .1

Years = ln (2) / .1

Years = 0.69314718056 / .1

Years = 6.9314718056

If you can’t see the pic don’t bother answering. if you could please explain !!
il63 [147K]

Answer:

you can split the garden in: 1/2 circles x 4 (because you have 4 half-circles) + a square.

the square's area is 4 x 4 = 16; the circles is pi x R x R (pi = aprox 3.14, R of the cirlce is 4m / 2 = 2m, because the square's side is 4m and is the same size with circle diagonale: Diag of circle = 2 X Radius => Radius = Diag / 2)

than answer will be: 16 + 3.14 x 2 x 2 x 2 (the last 2 is, because you have 4 halves of circles, than you will have 2 full circles) = 45.12, than answer is H, because 41 is the nearest number to 45.12
