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.

Which equation can be used to represent "three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of thr
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four as an equation.

Let the number be n.

The first part is: three minus the difference of a number and one:

3 - (n - 1)

The second part is: one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four:

1/2(3n - 4)

Now, let us equate the first and second parts:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

PS: I really do not understand the options

A driver brings a car to a full stop in 2.0s. It’s acceleration is -11 m/s^2. How far did the car travel while braking
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

  22 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled is ...

  d = (1/2)at^2

where "a" is the magnitude of the acceleration.

  d = (1/2)(11 m/s^2)(2 s)^2

  d = 22 m

The car traveled 22 meters while braking.

*31. Priya and Ravish planned to participate in a cycle race to be organised for National integration. They decided
Julli [10]

Answer:

36 minutes

2 rounds for Priya

3 rounds for Ravish

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is the LCM (least common multiple) of 12 and 18.

12 = 2^2 x 3

18 = 3^2 x 2

=>LCM of 12 and 18 = 2^2 x 3^2 = 4 x 9 = 36

=> After 36 minutes they meet again at the starting point

=> At that time, Priya has completed: 36/18 = 2 rounds

=> At that time, Ravish has completed: 36/12 = 3 rounds
