The number of people who took ride in the big ferris wheel at a fair can be calculated by proper dimensional analysis. This can be done through the equation below,
n = (number of minutes)(rate at which the chair passes the exit platform)(number of persons per chair)
Substituting the known values to the equation,
n = (30 minutes)(1 chair / minute)(2 persons / chair)
n = 60 persons
Answer: 60 persons
Answer:

Subtract 2 from both sides:


Multiply 4 to both sides:


Answer:
50 cm² and 56 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) is calculated as
A =
× d₁ × d₂ ( d₁ and d₂ are the length of the diagonals )
(2)
A =
× (8 + 2) × (5 + 5)
= 0.5 × 10 × 10
= 5 × 10
= 50 cm²
(3)
A =
× (12 + 2) × (4 + 4)
= 0.5 × 14 × 8
= 7 × 8
= 56 cm²
