A circle has an area of 314.1592. What is the diameter? (round to the nearest whole number)
ad-work [718]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is equal to pi*radius^2

We can then write this as

314.1592=π*r^2

We then divide pi to get

100=r^2

take the square root and you find that the radius equals around 10

The diameter is always equal to the radius times two which means that the diameter is 20

hope this helps

The weight, in pounds, of a newborn baby tt months after birth can be modeled by the function W(t)=1.25t+6.W(t)=1.25t+6. What is
ollegr [7]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: The weight, in pounds, of a newborn baby t months after birth can be modeled by the function W(t)=1.25t+6.

TO FIND: What is the y-intercept of the function and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem.

SOLUTION:

in  W(t)=1.25t+6

if t=0

W(0)=6

Hence y-intercept is 6

the y-intercept in this represents the weight of baby just after he is born.

Me podrían ayudar y explicarme el proceso please
kakasveta [241]

Answer: Encontrarás las respuestas debajo de cada explicación. Espero que consideres darme brainliest y 5 estrellas, y más importante, que hayas entendido.

Step-by-step explanation:

Esto es la regla de 3. Conoces 3 valores y necesitas encontrar un 4to valor.

Ya sabemos que 1 caja pesa 20kg,

1 - 20kg

ahora queremos saber cuantas cajas (x) equivalen a 7653kg

x - 7653kg

Hacemos un pequeño cuadro poniendo en un lado los numeros de cajas y del otro el peso.

Pongamos la cantidad de cajas en la izquierda y el peso en la derecha

\frac{1}{x} =\frac{20kg}{7653kg}

Procedemos a multiplicar en cruz. Solo podemos multiplicar si tenemos ambos valores. En este caso, los valores en cruz que tenemos son 1 y 7653kg porque en la otra cruz (20 y x) tenemos nuestra incognita. Y, por ultimo, dividimos entre el numero cuya cruz es con la incognita (20kg)

Esto nos deja la expresión así;

x=\frac{1*7653kg}{20kg}

x=382.65

Como una caja no puede ser un numero decimal, redondeamos.

x=383

Por lo tanto, se necesitan aproximadamente 383 cajas para que su peso equivalga a 7653 kg.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

La otra pregunta dice: Si una caja pesa 20kg, (1 - 20kg), ¿Cuántas cajas se necesitan para equivaler 9500kg? (x - 9500kg)

Hacemos lo mismo que arriba, ponemos la cantidad de cajas de un lado, y el peso de otro lado.

\frac{1}{x}=\frac{20kg}{9500kg}

Multiplicamos aquellos valores en cruz que conozcamos y dividimos por el valor cuya cruz sea con x.

x=\frac{1*9500kg}{20kg}

x=475

Esta es la cantidad de cajas que se necesitan para que su pesa equivalga a 9500kg.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Por último, la pregunta dice, ¿Cuántos kilogramos hay en 873 cajas?

Ya sabemos que una caja pesa 20kg ( 1 - 20kg ) y ahora buscamos cuantos kg hay en 873 cajas; es decir, (873 - x)

Nos quedaría así;

\frac{1}{873}=\frac{20kg}{x}

Ahora, nuestra cruz es 873 y 20kg, y el divisor es 1.

x=\frac{873*20kg}{1}

x=17460kg

Este sería el peso de 873 cajas.
