1) The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the straight edge (the diameter of the semicircle) and the length of the arc of the semicircle.
The circumference of a 4 ft circle is
π*diameter = π*4 ft ≈ 12.566 ft
The semicircle will have a length that is half that, 6.283 ft. When this length is added to the diameter, the perimeter is found to be
Perimeter = 4 ft + 6.283 ft ≈ 10.3 ft.
2) The area of a circle is given by the formula
A = (π/4)d²
For a diameter of 15 inches, the area is
A = (π/4)(15 in)² = 56.25π in²
A ≈ 176.7146 in²
The area of the circle is about 176.71 in².
Three pounds is less than 50 ounces. 3 pounds =48 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be:
W: width of the yard.
L:length.
Now, we can write the equation of that relates length and width:
(Equation #1)
The area of the yard can be expressed as (using equation #1 into #2):
(Equation #2)
Since the Area of the yard is 
, then equation #2 turns into:
Now, we rearrange this equation:
We can divide the equation by 5 :
We need to find the solution for this quadratic. Let's find the factors of 160 that multiplied yields -160 and added yields -12. Let's choose -20 and 8, since 
and 
. The equation factorised looks like this:
Therefore the possible solutions are W=20 and W=-8. We discard W=-8 since width must be a positive number. To find the length, we substitute the value of W in equation #1:
Therefore, the dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.
Answer:
x = 1/8 = 0.125
Step-by-step explanation: Add 1 to both sides of the equation :
8x = 1
Divide both sides of the equation by 8:
x = 1/8 = 0.125
