Answer: your answers are correct. I inserted an image of the answers.
Answer: As a fraction, the answer is 3/8 (because 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8). As a whole number, 3/8ths can be represented by 0.375 (as 0.375 is equal to 3/8). :)
Answer:
The space between the plants is approximately 1.26ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Circular Garden
Number of plants = 20
Diameter of garden = 8ft
First, the circumference of the garden needs to be calculated; This is so because the plants that will be placed at the edge of the garden will occupy the circumference of the circle.
Calculating the circumference....
Circumference = 2πr
Where r = radius
r = ½ * diameter.
r = ½ * 8ft
r = 4ft
So,
Circumference = 2π * 4
Circumference = 8π ft
Given that the plants will be spaced evenly.
The distance between them = Circumference ÷ Number of plants
Distance = 8π/20
Distance = 0.4π ft.
Solving further to get actual distance (take π as 22/7)
Distance = 0.4 * 22/7
Distance = 8.8/7
Distance = 1.2571428571 ft
Distance = 1.26ft (Approximated)
Hence, the space between the plants is approximately 1.26ft
the square root of two is irrational
the sqare root of four is rational
