So in the problem, the length of the chord there is the circumference of the tree. So in order to get the diameter of the tree, we must use the formula in getting the circumference of a circle that is stated as follows. 

C = 2pi *Radius

so first we need the get the radius of the tree which represent by this formula:

Radius = C /2pi = 8/6.2832 = 1.2732 ft 
Diameter = 2*radius = 2 * 1.27 32 = 2.5465 feet 

In summary, the diameter of the tree is 2.565 feet.

serious [3.7K]
1. The fastest way to produce the tables is to have the person in-charge of finishing and packaging help with the preparation. Then, the person in-charge of preparation and packaging can help with the assembly. The finishing can also be done by three people. Finally, the packaging step can be helped by assembly and finishing people. This would produce more tables per day.

2. No. It would be better if the backup person can help with the task.

3. Tom could do the packaging since he'd be free after doing his step.

4. The scheme in No. 1 can be used.

Factor the polynomial completely using the X method. x2 + 13x – 48 An x-method chart shows the product a c at the top of x and b
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant term of x^2 + 13x – 48 factors into either (3)(-16) or (-3)(16).

Note how 16 - 3 = 13, which is the coefficient of the middle term.  Thus, the factors are

(x + 16)(x - 3) which is equivalent to x^2 + 16x - 3x - 48, or x^2 + 13x - 48.
