Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is A = πr², where r is the radius. That means in order to solve this we have to find the value of x, which is the diameter of the lake, and then divide it in half to get the radius. To find x we will use similar triangles and proportions. x is the height of the big triangle and 4.5 is the height of the smaller triangle; 15.3 + 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the big triangle and 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle. Setting up our proportion:

\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{15.3+7.4}{7.4} which simplifies a bit to

\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{22.7}{7.4} and cross multiply to solve for x:

7.4x = 102.15 so

x = 13.8  That is the diameter of the lake. Divide it in half to get 6.9, the radius. Applying the area formula for a circle:

A = (3.14)(6.9)² and

A = 3.14(47.61) so

A = 149.5 which rounds to 150, Choice C

Thank you for the help guys! <br><br> Find m ABC
Akimi4 [234]
Vertical angles are equal

7x - 19 = 4x + 2
7x - 4x = 2 + 19
3x = 21
x = 21/3
x = 7

m∠ABC = 4x + 2 = 4*7 + 2 = 28 + 2 = 30°

Find the mean of the data set. if necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 18 14 8 22 25 8
Elden [556K]
To work out the mean of a data set add all the numbers together and divide them by the number of data items there are. 

18 + 14 + 8 + 22 + 25 + 8 = 95

95/6 = 15.8 (that answer is rounded)

The 300 people who were lined up outside the amusement park had all entered by 8:15 a.m. By 8:30, 550 more had entered. The numb
Tasya [4]

Answer:

250; p= 300 + \frac{50}{3}t

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 15 minutes passed, so there would be 250 people who came in

b. You would create a formula, where t = time after 8:15 (in minutes), while p = people who are at the parade

300 + \frac{250}{15}t = p, which equals p= 300 + \frac{50}{3}t
