A circular fountain has a radius of 6.1 feet. Find its diameter and circumference to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for π.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

d= 12.2 C= 38.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a circle is half of the diameter so multiply 6.1 by 2

6.1 x 2 = 12.2 ft

To find the circumference:

C = 2πr

C = 2(3.14)(6.1)

C= 2(19.154)

C= 38.3

I'm not really sure how to fro it, can anyone help me?

kondaur [170]

Since the ratio is 5:4, they had to multiply 5x11 to get the 55. Now multiply the 4x11 to get 44. When you add the 55 and 44 that's 99 which only leaves 1 for the independent.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

0.23328,2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an airport limousine can accommodate up to four passengers on any one trip. The company will accept a maximum of six reservations for a trip, and a passenger must have a reservation.

Assuming independence we can say persons who do not show up is binomial with p = 0.4 and n = 6

a) If six reservations are made, what is the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip

= $P(X\leq 1)\\=0.23328$
