Answer:
The radius of the circle is 12.006 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the radius of the circle = r
Circumference = 75.4 m
Now, CIRCUMFERENCE OF A CIRCLE = 2 π r
⇒ 75 .4 m = 2 π r
Now, putting π = 3.14, we get:
75 .4 m = 2 (3.14) r
⇒ 75.4 = 6. 28 r
or, r = 75.4/6.28 = 12.006
or, r = 12.006 m
Hence, the radius of the circle with circumference 75.4 m is 12.006 m.
Answer:
5 1/3 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ashley prepares 1 bag in 2/3 minutes.
One friend takes 2/3 + 3/4 * 2/3 = 7/6 minutes to make 1 bag.
4 of her friends can make 1 bag in 7/6 * 1/4 = 7/24 minutes.
If it takes x minutes for Ashley and 4 friends to make one bag then we have:
1 / 2/3 + 1 / 7/24 = 1 / x
3/2 + 24/7 = 1/x
Multiply through by 14x:
21x + 48x = 14
x = 14/69 minutes.
So the time to make 1575 bags = 1575 * 14/69
= 320 minutes.
Well this is simple a calculator type problem...but if you are curious as the the algorithm used by simple calculators and such...
They use a Newtonian approximation until it surpasses the precision level of the calculator or computer program..
A newtonian approximation is an interative process that gets closer and closer to the actual answer to any mathematical problem...it is of the form:
x-(f(x)/(df/dx))
In a square root problem you wish to know:
x=√n where x is the root and n is the number
x^2=n
x^2-n=0
So f(x)=x^2-n and df/dx=2x so using the definition of the newton approximation you have:
x-((x^2-n)/(2x)) which simplifies further to:
(2x^2-x^2+n)/(2x)
(x^2+n)/(2x), where you can choose any starting value of x that you desire (though convergence to an exact (if possible) solution will be swifter the closer xi is to the actual value x)
In this case the number, n=95.54, so a decent starting value for x would be 10.
Using this initial x in (x^2+95.54)/(2x) will result in the following iterative sequence of x.
10, 9.777, 9.774457, 9.7744565, 9.7744565066299210578124802523397
The calculator result for my calc is: 9.7744565066299210578124802523381
So you see how accurate the newton method is in just a few iterations. :P
