The Bible, a book that is considered the perfect word of a perfect god tells us what the value of Pi is. Let's see verse 1 Kings 7:23
He also melted a sea of ten cubits from one side to the other, perfectly round; Its height was five cubits, and a cord of thirty cubits encircled it.
These are a list of specifications for the great temple of King Solomon, built about 950 BCE, and his interest here is that it gives a value of π = 3. If we divide 30 cubits between 10 cubits (which are the measures mentioned in written radical) gives us exactly 3.
We know that the length of the circumference is calculated l = 2 · π · r; Since 2 · r is the diameter, it can also be said that
circumference = diameter × π
If we go back to what the Bible says, the diameter is 5 meters and the circumference of 15:
circumference = diameter × π -> 15 = 5 × π
with which the value of π is 3.
This calculation of Pi is a bad approximation to the real value. The figure of 3 in the Bible compared with the real one which is 3.1416 ... indicates an error of about 6%.
Set up multiplication/division of proportions to cancel out units that you don't want and to introduce units that you do want in your final solution...
2678cm(in/2.54cm)(ft/12in)=2678/30.48 ft≈87.86 ft (to nearest hundredth)
Hi my name is Greg and I like pizza
Y2-y1/x2-x1 is slope so
9-9/14-(-20) so you get 0/34 which means there is no slope since they have the same y (the equation would be y=0x+9 therefore y=9)
Which makes sense since the equation is a straight line
