Raquel has created a program for a robot. The robot travels 10 meters and stops. The program is designed for wheels that are 2.5

cm in diameter. When Raquel replaces the wheels with ones having a 2.75 cm diameter, how should she adjust the number of rotations so that the robot travels the same distance?

Answer:

Raquel should adjust the number of rotations to 115.81 rotations

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the wheels that are 2.5 cm in diameter

The circumference is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$r=2.5/2=1.25\ cm$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=2(3.14) (1.25)$

$C=7.85\ cm$

step 2

Find the number of rotations

Divide 10 meters by the circumference

$10\ m=1,000\ cm$

$1,000/7.85=127.39\ rotations$

step 3

For a diameter of 2.75 cm find how should she adjust the number of rotations so that the robot travels the same distance

Find the circumference of the wheels

The circumference is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$r=2.75/2=1.375\ cm$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=2(3.14) (1.375)$

$C=8.635\ cm$

step 4

Find the number of rotations

Divide 10 meters by the circumference

$10\ m=1,000\ cm$

$1,000/8.635=115.81\ rotations$

The function p(x) = 8x – 10 shows the profit, in dollars, for selling x books.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Every book is 8 dollars but you have to subtract 10, so like this:

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = 8x - 10 Lets say you sell 2 books

p(2) = 8(2) - 10

p(2) = 16 - 10

p(2) = 6 You would make 6 dollars.

What’s the answer to the question

Bond [772]

Answer:

C) y-2x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

you want the equation y=mx+b. Your b is going to be where the line meets the y-axis, so 5. y=mx+5. Add 2x to both sides to get this form. y=2x+5. This might not make much sense sorry.

I NEED HELP ASAP!

vladimir2022 [97]

Using a geometric series, it is found that he swims 1897 yards in the first week.

In a geometric series, the quotient between consecutive terms is always the same, and it is called common ratio q.

The general equation of a geometric series is given by:

$a_n = a_1q^{n-1}$

In which $a_1$ is the first term.

The sum of the first n terms is given by:

$S_{n} = \frac{a_1(1 - q^n)}{1 - q}$

In this problem:

200 yards on the first day, thus $a_1 = 200$ .
Each day, the distance increases by 10%, since 100% + 10% = 110% = 1.1, $q = 1.1$ .
First week is first 7 days, thus $n = 7$

Then:

$S_{n} = \frac{a_1(1 - q^n)}{1 - q}$

$S_{7} = \frac{200(1 - 1.1^7)}{1 - 1.1}$

$S_{7} = 1897$

He swims 1897 yards in the first week.

What is the sum of the integers between the square root of 12 and 40?

satela [25.4K]

1.

the closest perfect squares of 12 are 9 and 16,

that is 9<12<16

so
$\sqrt{9}\ \textless \ \sqrt{12}\ \textless \ \sqrt{16}$

$3\ \textless \ \sqrt{12}\ \textless 4$

this means, $\sqrt{12}$ is 3 point something...

2.

similarly

36<40<49

so

$\sqrt{36}\ \textless \ \sqrt{40}\ \textless \ \sqrt{49}$

$6\ \textless \ \sqrt{40}\ \textless \ 7$

which means $\sqrt{40}$ is 6 point something...

3.

<span>the sum of the integers between the square root of 12 and 40 is the sum of 4, 5 and 6, since 4 is the smallest integer after root 12, and 6 the greatest integer to before root of 40.

Answer: 15</span>
