Answer:

  5.48 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

12 inches is 1 foot.

12.8 times that length will have 12.8 times that weight:

  12.8 · 0.428 lb = 5.4784 lb ≈ 5.48 lb

__

The given values have 3 significant figures, so the answer needs to be rounded to 3 significant figures.

The base of a circular fence with radius 10 m is given by x = 10 cost, y = 10 sin t. the height of the fence at position (x, y)
antiseptic1488 [7]

The parametric equations for x and y describe a circle of radius 10 m, so the length of the base of the fence is the length of the circumference of a circle of radius 10 m. The formula for that circumference (C) is ...

... C = 2πr

... C = 2π·(10 m) = 20π m

The height as a function of angle (t) is found by substituting for x and y.

... h(t) = h(x(t), y(t)) = 4 + 0.01·((10cos(t))²-)10sin(t))²) = 4+cos(2t)

The average value of this over the range 0 ≤ t ≤ 2π is 4, since the cosine function has two full cycles in that range, and its average value over a cycle is zero.

Thus, the area of one side of the fence is that of a rectangle 20π m long and 4 m wide. That will be

... (20π m)·(4 m) = 80π m²

The amount of paint required to cover both sides of the fence is

... 2×(80π m²)×(1 L)/(10 m²) = 16π L ≈ 50.3 L

_____

You can work out the integral for area as a function of t. When you do, you will find it gives this same result.

Can someone help me please

So first of all, both angles are alternate interior angles right. so they would equal the same thing. all you have to do is divide 75 by 3 to get the x which would equal 25. Hope that helps :)
