Answer:

The radius of the Ferris wheel is $25\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$C=157\ ft$

substitute

$157=2(3.14)r$

Solve for r

$r=157/6.28=25\ ft$

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

181.8 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is good for this. It tells you for triangle sides 'a' and 'b' and included angle C, the length of 'c' is given by ...

c^2 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C)

For the given geometry, this is ...

c^2 = 400^2 +240^2 -2(400)(240)cos(16°) ≈ 33,037.75

c ≈ √33037.75 ≈ 181.8 . . . yards

Marsha's ball is about 181.8 yards from the hole.

Meg has saved up $350 to purchase a new TV from the local store. The sales tax in her county is 5% of the sticker price. Write a

Sergio [31]

For this case we have:

Let p be the highest price of the TV that Meg can buy

We have to:

5% of p is given by:

$0.05p$

So, we have:

$p + 0.05p = 350$

Clearing p we have:

$1.05p = 350$

$p=\frac{350}{1.05}\\p=333.33$

Thus, the highest price of the television that Meg purchases should be $p = 333.33$ dollars.

Answer:

$p + 0.05p = 350\\p = 333.33$

On paper, make a rectangle that has points A and B as two of its vertices and has a perimeter of 40 units. Draw and label the tw

Westkost [7]

Answer:

$A(x,y),B(x+10,y),C(x+10,y-10) \:and\: D(x,y-10)$

Step-by-step explanation:

If a Rectangle has a perimeter of 40 units, then we can write that formula and find the a formula for the coordinates:

$\left\{\begin{matrix}w+l=20 & \\ w*l=100 & \end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow w=20-l\Rightarrow (20-l)l=100\Rightarrow -l^2+20l-100=0\Rightarrow l^2-20l+100\Rightarrow (l-10)(l-10)\Rightarrow l=10\therefore l=10\: and\: w=10$

Therefore we can say:

$A(x,y),B(x+10,y),C(x+10,y-10) \:and\: D(x,y-10)$

Technically when $w=l$ in this rectangle is a square, a degenerate square.
