Answer:

He climbed 19 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let steps climbed in 9.5 seconds = z

If 24 steps = 12 seconds

then: z = 9.5 seconds

Using criss cross method

24 x 9.5 = 12 x z

228 = 12 z

z = 228/12

z = 19 steps

Find the diameter of a circle with an area of 95.03 square feet.

ra1l [238]

For this case we have that the area of a circle is given by:

$A = \pi * r ^ 2$

Where:

r: It is the radius of the circle

By clearing the radio we have:

$r = \pm \sqrt {\frac {A} {\pi}}$

We take the positive value:

$r = \sqrt {\frac {A} {\pi}}\\r = \sqrt {\frac {95.03} {\pi}}\\r = 5.50 \ ft$

The diameter is twice the radius:

$d = 11$

Answer:

$11 \ ft$
