First calculate the circumference. Usually this is the diameter times pi, but since we are told to estimate pi, the circumference equals 56 * 22/7 or 176 feet.
In 4 minutes, 4 * 60 = 240 seconds pass. In this time, a 20 second period will occur 240/20 = 12 times.
So we know that the rider rotates 12 times and each rotation takes them 176 feet, meaning that they will travel 12 * 176 = 2112 feet
Answer:
X = 7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
For the triangle of right side, using Pytagoras:
(2.5)^2 + b^2 = 6^2
6.25 + b^2 = 36
b^2 = 36 - 6.25
b^2 = 29.75
b = 5.45
Now we can to find X using again Pytagoras:
3^2 + (5.45)^2 = x^2
9 + 29.75 = x^2
38.75 = x^2
X = 7.2
