The perimeter of a semicircle consists of two parts. (the curve and bottom)
That curve is half the distance around the circle, since it's been split in half.
The distance around a circle, the circumfrence, is equal to 2πr, where r is the radius of that circle. In this case, the circumfrence of the entire circle would be 16π. and so that curve would have a length of just 8π.
Using 3.14 for π, 8π = 8×3.14 = 25.12.
As for the flat part, that is the diameter (distance across) our circle.
The radius is the distance from the center of a circle to its edge, and always has half the length of the diameter. (you can break the diameter down into two radii)
If our radius is 8 meters, our diameter (the flat part of that semicircle) must be 16.
Now we add up the two parts of the perimeter...25.12 + 16 = 41.12.
The difference means subtract
5y means product or 5 times y
5y - 15
So the greatest common factor of 40 and 16 is 8
40/8 : 16/8
5:2
The simplest form of the ratio 40:16 is 5:2
Hope this helps!
The savings are illustrations of ratio, and the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings in the simplest ratio is 4 : 7
<h3>How to determine the ratio?</h3>
The given ratios are:
Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7
Mandy : Belle = 2 : 3
Multiply the second ratio by 3.5.
So, we have:
Mandy : Belle = 2 * 3.5 : 3 * 3.5
Evaluate
Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5
So, we have:
Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7
Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5
Mandy's ratios in both equation are the same.
So, we have:
Dawn : Mandy : Belle = 6 : 7 : 10.5
Remove Mandy's ratio
Dawn : Belle = 6 : 10.5
Simplify
Dawn : Belle = 4 : 7
Hence, the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings is 4 : 7

Answer:
10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
(150/x) + 1.5 + (450/(x+15)) = 600/x
Multiply through by x(x + 15):
150(x + 15) + 1.5x(x + 15) + 450x = 600(x + 15)
150x + 2250 + 1.5x^2 + 22.5x + 450x = 600x + 9000
150x + 2250 + 1.5x^2 + 22.5x + 450x - 600x - 9000 = 0
1.5x^2 + 22.5x - 6750 = 0
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(22.5^2 - 4(1.5)(-6750))) / (2*1.5)
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(506.25 + 40500)) / 3
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(41006.25)) / 3
x = (-22.5 +/- 202.5) / 3
x = 180/3 or -225/3
x = 60 or -75
But a negative number doesn't make sense, so therefore x = 60, so the journey took 600/60 = 10 hours.
