<h3>Answer:  100 revolutions</h3>

This value is approximate because pi = 22/7 is approximate.

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's find the perimeter of the wheel, aka the circumference

C = pi*d

C = (22/7)*77

C = 242

The distance around the tire is approximately 242 cm

At first glance, it looks like one revolution will do the trick. However, we need to cover 242 meters and not 242 cm.

We can say the following

1 meter = 100 cm

242 meters = 24200 cm .... multiply both sides by 242

One revolution covers 242 cm, which is 1/100 of the distance we need to cover. So that means we need to do 100 revolutions to get to the target we're after.

1 revolution = 242 cm

100 revolutions = 24200 cm ... multiply both sides by 100

---------------------------

We could also use a proportion to solve

(1 revolution)/(242 cm) = (x revolutions)/(24200 cm)

1/242 = x/24200

1*24200 = 242x

242x = 24200

x = 24200/242

x = 100

Which is better estimate for the volume of a tube of toothpaste 6 tablespoon 6 cups?​
Archy [21]

Answer:

6 tablespoons

Step-by-step explanation:

It's more logical because tubes of toothpaste do not require such a large amount of toothpaste. Look at your toothpaste tube. I'm sure that it is closer to 6 tablespoons rather than 6 cups.

The complement of an angle is 25 less than 3 times the angles itself. Find the measure of each
Semenov [28]

Answer: 28.75° and 61.25°

Step-by-step explanation:

A complementary angle equals 90°.

Let the measure of the angle be a

Therefore, its complement will be:

= 90-a.

The complement of an angle is 25 less than 3 times the angles itself can be written as:

90-a = 3a - 25

90 + 25 = 3a + a

115 = 4a

a = 115/4

a= 28.75

Since the angle is 28.75°, the complement will be:

= 90° - 28.75°

= 61.25°

The angles are 28.75° and 61.25°
