Answer: 30 ft

gavmur [86]

Answer/Step-by-step Explanation:

Circumference of a circular object = πd

Where,

π = 3.14,

d = diameter

Circumference of hula pop with diameter of 35 in:

Circumference = πd = 3.14*35 = 109.9 in

Diameter of circular pond with a circumference of 556 ft:

556 = 3.14*d

Divide both sides by 3.14

556/3.14 = d

177.07 = d

d ≈ 117 in

Circumference of magnifying glass with a diameter of 5.2 in:

Circumference = πd = 3.14*5.2 = 16.328 ≈ 16.4 cm

Diameter of car tire with a circumference of 71.6 in:

71.6 = 3.14*d

Divide both sides by 3.14

71.6/3.14 = d

22.80 = d

d ≈ 22.8 in

Addison plays 1/2 of a song in 1/4 of a minute. How minutes will she need to play a full song?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

She plays 1/2 of a song in 1/4 of a minute so that would be 15 minutes because if you divide 60 by 4 you would get 15. You would multiply 15 by 2 because if she plays a full song you multiply 1/2 by 2 to get a whole. So she will need 30 minutes to play a full song

X^2-5x-6<br> X^2+3x-40<br> X^2+3x-4
luda_lava [24]

x² - 5x - 6

= x² + x - 6x - 6

= x(x + 1) - 6(x + 1)

= (x - 6) (x + 1)

x² + 3x - 40

= x² + 8x - 5x - 40

= x(x + 8) -5(x + 8)

= (x - 5) (x + 8)

x² + 3x - 4

= x² + 4x - x - 4

= x(x + 4) -1(x + 4)

= (x - 1) (x + 4)
