Answer:
AC ≈ 10.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan48° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by 9.3 )
9.3 × tan48° = AC , then
AC ≈ 10.3 ( to 3 sf )
Answer:
n = 8 or n = −6
Explanation:
First, isolate the absolute value:
5 − |n − 1| = −2
7 − |n − 1| = 0
7 = |n − 1|
Then, split this into two equations, since the result of the absolute value could be positive or negative:
7 = n − 1 7 = −(n − 1)
8 = n 7 = −n + 1
n = −6
Answer: 4.123 (rounded) or sqrt(17)
Step-by-step explanation: Take the square root of 17.
First Question
circumference = pi * diameter
diameter = circumference/pi = 94.2 in./3.14 = 30 in.
The wheels have a 30-inch diameter.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Second question
The area of a circle: area = pi * r^2
radius = diameter/2 = 94.2 in./2 = 47.1 in.
area = pi * r^2 = 3.14 * 47.1 in. * 47.1 in. = 6966 in.^2
Answer: 6966 in.^2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Third question
The piece of felt has a width equal to the diameter of the wheel. The length has to be the same as 4 diameters.
4 * 94.2 in. = 376.8 in.
Answer: 376.8 in.
