Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First calculate the circumference. Usually this is the diameter times pi, but since we are told to estimate pi, the circumference equals 56 * 22/7 or 176 feet.
In 4 minutes, 4 * 60 = 240 seconds pass. In this time, a 20 second period will occur 240/20 = 12 times.
So we know that the rider rotates 12 times and each rotation takes them 176 feet, meaning that they will travel 12 * 176 = 2112 feet
Answer:
(2, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + 2y = - 6 → (1)
3x + y = 2 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in y
- 6x - 2y = - 4 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 5x = - 10 ( divide both sides by - 5 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
2 + 2y = - 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2y = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = - 4
Solution is (2, - 4 )
<span>a.
The radius of earth is about 6400 kilometers. Find the circumference of
a great circle.
Circumference = 2π(radius) = 2π(6400 km) = 40.212,39 km
b. Write an equation for the circumference of any
latitude circle with angle theta
As stated, </span><span><span>the
length of any parallel of latitude (this is the circumference of corresponding circle) is equal to the circumference of a
great circle of Earth times the cosine of the latitude angle</span>:
=> Circumference = 2π*radius* cos(Θ) = 2 π*6400km*cos(Θ) = 40,212.39 cos(Θ)
Answer: circumference = 40,212.39 cos(Θ) km
c. Which latitude circle has a
circumference of about 3593 kilometers?
Make </span><span><span>40,212.39 cos(Θ)</span> km = 3593 km
=> cos(Θ) = 3593 / 40,212.39 = 0.08935 => Θ = arccos(0.08935) = 84.5° = 1.48 rad
Answer: 1.48
d. What is the circumference of
the Equator?
</span>
For the Equator Θ = 0°
=> circumference = 40,213.49cos(0°) km = 40,212.49 km
Answer: 40,212.49 km
A=6
B= -1/2
C= 11
I had this one on my test and I got it right have a good day
