Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of a tire is 2.5 ft. a. Find the circumference of the tire. b. About how many times will the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile?

Solution:

a) The circumference of a circle is the perimeter of the circle. The circumference of the circle is the distance around a circle, that is the arc length of the circle. The circumference of a circle is given by:

Circumference = 2π × radius; but diameter = 2 × radius. Hence:

Circumference = π * diameter.

Given that diameter of the tire = 2.5 ft:

Circumference of the tire = π * diameter = 2.5 * π = 7.85 ft

b) since the circumference of the tire is 7.85 ft, it means that 1 revolution of the tire covers a distance of 7.85 ft.

1 mile = 5280 ft

The number of rotation required to cover 1 mile (5280 ft) is:

number of rotation = \frac{5280\ ft}{7.85\ ft\ per\ rotation}=672\ rotations\\\\\\

A radioactive substance decays at a rate of 25% every 10 years. Which equation represents the amount of the substance (S) remain
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

y = 100 * (0.75)^{30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a =100 --- Initial Amount

r= 25\% every 10 years

Required

The remaining amount after 300 years

To do this, we make use of:

y = a(1 - r)^T

Where

r = decay rate

T = the period of decay

In 300 years, there are 30 periods of 10 years.

i.e.

T = \frac{300}{10}

T = 30

y = a(1 - r)^T

y = 100 * (1 - 25\%)^{30

y = 100 * (1 - 0.25)^{30

y = 100 * (0.75)^{30

1.

Make the fractions improper.

72/12 x 19/6 = 19.


2. 

Area = L x W

L = 3 1/6 x
W = 6 7/12

= 19.

#1 = 19 feet
#2 = <span>9 3/4 feet</span>
