Answer:
78.54 is the radius of a circle of 5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula of the area of a circle is
A = πr^2
When you multiply 5 times 5, you get 25. Then, multiply 25 by pi to recieve 78.54 rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Let x represent the number originally signed up.
.. 360/x -6 = 360/(x +3)
.. 360*(x +3) -6x(x +3) = 360x . . . . . multiply by the product of denominators
.. 360x +1080 -6x^2 -18x = 360x
.. x^2 +3x -180 = 0
.. (x +15)(x -12) = 0
Solutions are x = {-15, 12}
12 members went on the trip.
_____
The problem wording does not make clear whether the original number (12) or the number suggested by the bus company (15) went on the trip. It would be most reasonable for 15 to go, if the troop had people who were willing.
