The perimeter of a semicircle is 81.212 yards. what is the semicircle's diameter?

adoni [48]

$\textit{circumference of a semicircle}\\\\ C=\pi r ~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ C=81.212 \end{cases}\implies 81.212=\pi r\implies \cfrac{81.212}{\pi }=r \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{its diameter is}}{2r\implies 2\left( \cfrac{81.212}{\pi } \right)} ~~ \approx ~~ 51.7$

Alina spent no more than $45 on gas for a road trip. The first gas station she used charged $3.50 per gallon and the second gas

Paraphin [41]

Answer: 3.50x + 4.00y ≤ 45

0 < y < 11.25

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$3.50x + 4.00y \leq 45\\\\\\\text{Subtract 3.50x from both sides:}\\4.00y\leq -3.50x+45\\\\\\\text{Divide everything by 4.00 (to isolate y):}\\\dfrac{4.00y}{4.00}\leq \dfrac{-3.50x}{4.00}+\dfrac{45}{4.00}\\\\\\y\leq-0.875x+11.25\\\\\\\text{Both x and y must be greater than zero, so:}\\0$
