Answer:

The length of the track is approximately 51.7 ft

The track has <u>three</u> sides of the square and the distance round <u>a half of a</u> complete circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The given track shape and measurements are;

The shape on the left side of the track  = Square

The shape on the right side of the track  = Half circle

The area of the square on the the left side of the track  = 128 square feet

Therefore, from the area, A, of a square of side length, s, which is s × s, and letting the side length of the square = s, we have;

Area of the square portion of the track = s × s = s² = 128 ft²

Therefore, s = √(128 ft²) = 8·√(2) ft.

Whereby the side length of the square is bounded by the diameter of the half circle, we have;

Length of the diameter of the half circle = s = 8·√(2) ft.

The length of the perimeter of the half circle = π·D/2 = π × 8·√(2)/2 = π × 4·√(2) ≈ 17.77 ft.

The perimeter of the track, which is the length of the track is made up of the three sides of the square opposite to the half circle and the circumference of the half circle.

Therefore;

The length of the track = 3 × 8·√(2) ft + π × 4·√(2) ft. = 4·√2×(π+6) ≈ 51.7 ft

The length of the track ≈ 51.7 ft

Which gives;

The track has <u>three</u> sides of the square and the distance round <u>a half of a</u> complete circle.

scoray [572]
<span>In the question "Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression represents her gross pay each day" To obtain the expression that represents her gross pay each day, we divide the given expression by 7 to get (35h + 56) / 7 = 35h / 7 + 56 / 7 = 5h + 8 Therefore, the expression that represents her gross pay each day is 5h + 8.</span>

Given right triangle XYZ, what is the value of tan(60°)?
Svetlanka [38]

we know that

Step 1

in the right triangle XYZ

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Find the value of ZY

XY^{2}=XZ^{2} +ZY^{2} \\   ZY^{2}=XY^{2}-XZ^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=42^{2}-21^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=1,323\\ ZY=\sqrt{1,323}\ units

ZY=21\sqrt{3}\ units

Step 2

in the right triangle XYZ

Find tan60°

we know that

tan\ 60=\frac{opposite\ side\ angle\ 60}{adjacent\ side\ angle\ 60}

in this problem

opposite side angle 60 is ZY

adjacent side angle 60 is XZ

so

tan\ 60=\frac{ZY}{XZ} \\ \\ tan\ 60=\frac{21\sqrt{3}}{21}  \\ \\  tan\ 60=\sqrt{3}

therefore

the answer is

\sqrt{3}

Dominik [7]
If you add $15 + $27 because that's how much it costs for each student, you get $42. Then you divide $714 by $42, you get 17 and that's how many students are in the class this month.

What is the sum of 3/2x and 7/4x
Advocard [28]


3/2x +7/4x = ...........

3/2x(4/4)+7/4x(2/2)

Evaluate the series shown. Then write an equivalent series using summation notation such that the lower index starts at 0.
Vitek1552 [10]
The summation indicates the sum from n = 1 to n = 3 of the expression 2(n+5).

2 (n+5) = 2n + 10

2n + 10 denotes an Arithmetic Series, with a common difference of two and first term as 12.

For n =1, it equals 12
For n = 2, it equals 14
For n = 3, it equals 16

So the sum from n=1 to n=3 will be 12 + 14 + 16 = 42

Sum of an Arithmetic Series can also be written as:

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}(2a_{1} +(n-1)d)

Using the value of a₁ and d, we can simplify the expression as:

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2} (24+2(n-1)) \\  \\ &#10; S_{n} =n (12+(n-1))\\  \\ &#10; S_{n} =n (11+n)

This expression is equivalent to the given expression and will yield the same result.

For n=3, we get the sum as:

S₃ = 3(11+3) = 42
