Using the formula for circumference from diameter (c=pi(d)), we find that the circumference of the ferris wheel is about 197.97 feet. We then multiply that number by the revolutions to get 2,374.64 feet, which is the answer.
Here is how i solved it hope it helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: gfu
Attached is a drawing to set up the problem, hopefully that helps.
The red lines are tracing the rowing and walking to get to other side.
dR = distance rowed
dw = distance walked
x = the angle in which to start rowing initially
dR can be found by using Law of cosines

dw is arc length, which is just radius*arc

next we need t set up a function for Time in terms of x.
This is so we can minimize the time it takes to get to other side.
Time = distance/rate

Finally, take derivative and set equal to 0
Once you solve for x, plug it back into Time function to obtain final answer.
