Step-by-step explanation:
1.
circumference of circular fence = 2πr
π = 3.14
r = radius
radius of circular fence, r= 10 feet
putting the values in the formula,
circumference = 2× 3.14 × 10
= 62.8 feet
therefore the fencing brad need will be 62.8 feet
2.
Area of the circular hot tub = πr²
π= 3.14
r = radius
as given in the question,
diameter = 80 inches
we know diameter is equal to half radius so r = 40 inches
putting the values in the formula,
area = 3.14 × 40× 40
= 5,024 inches
hence the area of the hot tub is equal to 5,025 inches
3.
Area of the circular wall clock = πr²
π= 3.14
r = radius
as per the question ,
area of 5 inches wall clock = 3.14× 5×5 = 78.5 inches
and area of 6 inches wall clock = 3.14 ×6×6 = 113.04 inches
To find the how much wall space will 6 inches wall clock takes we have to subtract both areas,
area of 6 inches wall clock - area of 5 inches wall clock = 113.04 - 78.5
= 34.54 inches
6 inches wall clock will take 34.54 inches of area more.

Can you help me answer a, b and c please?
Answer
a)
[tex]B=B_{0}(1+\frac{a}{12})^{t}[/tex]b)
[tex]B=B_{0}(1+\frac{25}{3}a)^{t}[/tex]c)
[tex]B=B_0(1+\frac{25}{3}a)^{12y}[/tex]Explanation
We're given the function:
[tex]B=B_0(1+r)^t[/tex]To represent the equation with the data given in the problem, we need to solve the three parts of this problem.
The part a ask us to write the expression in terms of annual percentage rate (APR) in decimal. If we call "a" the APR in decimal, then the monthly rate is the APR divided in 12:
[tex]r=\frac{a}{12}[/tex]Now we can rewrite the balance equation in terms of the initial investment, the number of months and the APR:
[tex]B=B_0(1+\frac{a}{12})^t[/tex]In part b, we need to write the balance equation using the APR as percentage. The APR as decimal is equal to the APR in percentage divided by 100. If we call A the APR in percentage:
[tex]a=\frac{A}{100}[/tex]Now we replace this value in the balance equation we got in part a:
[tex]B=B_0(1+\frac{100a}{12})^t[/tex]Then simplify:
[tex]B=B_0(1+\frac{25}{3}a)^t[/tex]That's the answer to b.
In part c, we need to write the balance equation with the time in years. Since 1 year has 12 months, if we call the number of months t, and the number of years y:
[tex]t=12y[/tex]Then:
[tex]B=B_0(1+\frac{25}{3}a)^{12y}[/tex]And this is the answer to c.
3The number of hours that the employees at the local Fry's grocery store worked last week is normallydistributed with a mean of 28 hours and a standard deviation of 4. What percentage of employees workedbetween 24 and 36 hours?Answer:
We can solve this question by using the fact that a normal distribution is symmetric and using the empirical rules. The empirical rules are
• 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation of the mean.
• 95% of the data falls within two standard deviations of the mean.
• 99.7% of the data falls within three standard deviations of the mean.
In our problem, the mean is 28 and the standard deviation is equal to 4. Our interval is 24(one standard deviation below the mean) and 36(2 standard deviations above the mean)
[tex](24,36)=(28-4,28+8)=(28-\sigma,28+2\sigma)[/tex]Our area is the area that falls within one standard deviation of the mean plus the area between one standard deviation and two on the positive side. The first area is 68% of the data, and the second area we can calculate using the fact that a bell curve is symmetric. Since 68% of data falls within one standard deviation and 95% of the data falls within two standard deviations of the mean, the difference between them represents the data that falls between one standard deviation and two standard deviation.
[tex]95-68=27[/tex]Since the distribution is symmetric, the data that falls between one standard deviation and two standard deviation on the positive side is half of this value.
[tex]\frac{27}{2}=13.5[/tex]Now, we just add this value to 68% and we're going to have our answer.
[tex]68+13.5=81.5[/tex]The percentage of employees worked between 24 and 36 hours is 81.5%.
a cylindrical container with an 8 in. diameter and an 2 in. height is completely filled with water. all of its contents are poured into another cylindrical container that is 32 in. tall. if the water completely fills the second container, the second container's diameter is ___ in.
Volume of a cylinder: π r^2 h
Where:
r = radius
h= height
Calculate the volume of the first cylindrical container:
radius = diameter/2
Volume = π (8/2)^2 (2) = 100.5 in3
Second container
Volume = 100.5
heigth = 32 in
100.5 = π r^2 32
Solve for r
100.5/ (π 32 ) = r^2
1 = r^2
√1 = r
r=1
Diameter = 2 r = 2 (1) = 2 in

The given coordinates of the points are as follows.
[tex]A(3,0),B(1,4),C(5,3)[/tex]Thus, the new coordinates will be as follows.

To get around a small pond, a local electrical utility must lay two sections of underground cable that are 371 m and 440 m long. The two sections meet at an angle of 145°. How much extra cable is needed due to going around the pond?
If the cable could went through the pond there would be only one straight section conecting the two points. If we draw this new section in the picture we'll form a triangle:
In order to find how much extra cable is needed because of the pond we must find the length of the imaginary cable that connects the points through the dot, for this length we are going to use x.
The cosine rule will help as find it. Let's assume that we have a triangle with an angle A which has an opposite side with a length a and the lengths of the other two sides are b and c. Then the cosine rule states the following:
[tex]a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc\cos A[/tex]We can apply this to our triangle. The 145° angle that we know is A, its opposite side a is x and the remaining sides b and c are the two cable sections of 371 m and 440 m. Then we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2=371^2+440^2-2\cdot371\cdot440\cdot\cos145^{\circ} \\ x^2=598677.7594 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then we apply a square root to both sides of this equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{598677.7594} \\ x=773.74 \end{gathered}[/tex]So without the pond the length of the cable would have been of 773.74 m. In order to find the amount of extra cable needed we must take the total length of both sections and substract 773.74 m from it. Then we get:
[tex]371+440-773.74=37.26[/tex]AnswerThen the answer is 37.26m.
Professional athletes are some of the highest paid people in the world. The average major league baseball player's salary has climbed from $1,998,000 in 2000 to $2,866,500 in 2006
Answer:
[tex]L(y)=144750y+1998000[/tex]
The slope means that each year the average professional baseball player's salary increased by $144,750 for every year after 2000.
The y-intercept means that in year 0 (2000) the average professional baseball player's salary was $1,998,000
The predicted average salary in 2007 is $3,011,250
(b)
[tex]E(y)=1998000\cdot1.062^y[/tex]The initial value represents the average professional baseball player's salary in year 0 (2000), which was $1,998,000.
The growth factor means that the rate of change increases each year by 1.062 times the previous year's increase.
The predicted average salary in 2007 is $3,044,233.94
Explanation:
The problem gives us two pieces of information:
In year 2000, we call t = 0, the average salary was $1,998,000
In year 2006, we call t = 6, the average salary was $2,866,500
If we want to make a function of the average salary variation over the years, we have two points that must lie in the equation of that function:
(0, 1998000) and (6, 2866500)
For (a) we need to assume that is linear growth. The equation of a line is:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where:
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept. In this case, since we established the year 2000 as t = 0, b = 1998000
Given two points P and Q, we can find the slope by the formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \begin{cases}P=(x_P,y_P){} \\ Q=(x_Q,y_Q)\end{cases} \\ . \\ m=\frac{y_Q-y_P}{x_Q-x_P} \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, if we call:
P = (0, 1998000)
Q = (6, 2866500)
[tex]m=\frac{2866500-1998000}{6-0}=\frac{868500}{6}=144750[/tex]Thus, the equation of the linear growth model is:
[tex]L(t)=144750t+1998000[/tex]Now, we can use this to find a prediction for 2007. 2007 is 7 years since 2000; thus t = 7
[tex]L(7)=144750\cdot7+1998000=1013250+1998000=3011250[/tex]In (b) we assume an exponential growth. The formula for the exponential growth is:
[tex]y=a(1+r)^t[/tex]Where:
a is the initial value. In this case, the average salary in 2000, $1,998,000
r is the ratio of growth. We need to find this value
t is the time in years
Then, we can use the point (6, 2866500), and the fact that a = 1998000:
[tex]2866500=1998000(1+r)^6[/tex]And solve:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2866500}{199800}=(1+r)^6 \\ . \\ \sqrt[6]{\frac{637}{444}}=1+r \\ . \\ 1.062=1+r \end{gathered}[/tex]We call the term "1 + r" growth factor.
Now, we can write the formula:
[tex]E(t)=1998000\cdot1.062^t[/tex]To find a prediction of the average salary in 2007, we use the function and t = 7:
[tex]E(7)=1998000\cdot1.062^7=1998000\cdot1.5236=3044233.937[/tex]

Charlotte has $6,367 in a savings account. The interest rate is 14%, compounded annually.To the nearest cent, how much will she have in 4 years?
Solution
Given the savings account, and solve for the interest:
Principal = $6,367
Interest rate = 14%
time = 4years
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal
r = R/100
r = 14/100
r = 0.14 rate per year,
Then solve the equation for A
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} A=6367(1+\frac{0.14}{1})^{(1)(4)} \\ A=6367(1+0.14)^4 \\ A=10753.61 \end{gathered}[/tex]A = $10,753.61
Therefore the correct answer is $10,753.61 (nearest cent)

an object is thrown down from the top of a building. A height function for the object is given by the equation h=16(8+ t ) (5 - t) where T is the number of seconds elapsed since the object was thrown and H is the height of the object above the ground ( in feet). explain how to reason about the structure of the equation to determine when the object will hit the ground
The height is a function of the time, given by the following equation:
h(t) = 16(8+t)(5-t)
The object hits the ground when h(t) = 0. So
16(8 + t)(5 - t) = 0
This means that:
8 + t = 0 or 5 - t = 0
8 + t = 0
t = -8
We cannot have negative values for t.
5 - t = 0
-t = -5 *(-1)
t = 5
The object hits the ground when t = 5, which was easy to find since the equation was already factored by it's roots.

[tex]\frac{x^{3}z^{9}}{y^{21}}[/tex]Find the degree of the polynomial f(x) = x6 + x2 + 5x.A.5B.6C.-5D.-6
To find the degree of a polynomial identify the greater exponent, that is the degree of the polynomial.
In the given polynomial the greater exponent is 6, then it is degree 6Answer: 6-4x - 3 = -11x + 16
We want to find which value must have x, so this equation is true:
-4x - 3 = -11x + 16
In order to solve the equation for x, we want to "leave it alone" on one side of the equation.
In order to do that we just have to remember one simple rule:
Finding xStep 1- taking all the terms with x to one side
We are going to take all the terms with x to the left side:
-4x - 3 = -11x + 16
↓ adding 11x both sides
11 x - 4x - 3 = 11x -11x + 16
↓ since 11x - 4x = 7x (left) and 11x - 11x = 0 (right)
7x - 3 = 0 + 16
7x - 3 = 16
Step 2- taking all the numbers to the other side
7x - 3 =16
↓ adding 3 both sides
7x - 3 + 3 = 16 + 3
↓ since -3 + 3 = 0 (left) and 16 + 3 = 19 (right)
7x + 0 = 19
7x = 19
Step 3- leaving x alone on the left side
7x = 19
↓ dividing 7 both sides
7x/7 = 19/7
↓ since 7x/7 = x (left) and 19/7 ≅ 2.7
x ≅ 2.7
Answer: x = 19/7 ≅ 2.7
