Which of the following regular polygons circumscribed about a circle provides the best estimate for the area of that circle?

dodecagon
decagon
20-gon
11-gon

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

20-gon

Step-by-step explanation:

The area, A, of a regular polygon is given as follows;

[tex]A = \dfrac{n \times s \times a}{2} = \dfrac{P_p \times a}{2}[/tex]

Where;

n = The number of sides

s = The length of one side of the polygon

a = The apothem

[tex]P_p[/tex] = The perimeter of the polygon

Where

The area of a circle, A[tex]_c[/tex] = π×r² = π × r × r = 2× π × r × r/2 = P/2 × r

Given that the apothem, a, of a 20-gon circumscribed about a circle is approximately the length of the radius of the circle, and the perimeter of the 20-gon is approximately the perimeter (circumference) of the circle, the area of the 20-gon circumscribed about a circle provides the best estimate for the area of the circle.

The engine of a car has a displacement of 307 cubic inches. What is the displacement in cubic feet? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

5.03 L

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

 (1 inch)3 = (2.54 cm)3

1 in3 = 16.387 cm3

 

therefore

volume in cm^3 = (volume in in3) x (16.387 cm3/1 in3)

volume in cm3 = (307x 16.387) cm^3

volume in cm3 = 5030.809cm^3

let us convert to liters.

we know that

1 L = 1,000 cm3

 

volume in L = (volume in cm3) x (1 L/1,000 cm3)

volume in L = (5030.809/1,000) L

volume in L = 5.03 L

307 cubic inche engine displaces 5.03 L

your 6 1/4 - year investment of 40,000 at 14% compounded quarterly is worth how much now?​

Answers

Answer:

The investment of $40,000 is worth $94,529.80 now

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound Interest

It occurs when the interest is reinvested along with the principal, rather than paying it out. When it happens interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously accumulated interest.

To calculate the final amount we use:

[tex]{\displaystyle A=P\left(1+{\frac {r}{n}}\right)^{nt}}[/tex]

Where:

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

The investment is for t=6 1/4 years = 6.25 years with an initial balance of P=40,000 at a rate r=14% = 0.14 compounded quarterly. Since there are 4 quarters per year, then n=4.

Applying the formula:

[tex]{\displaystyle A=40,000\left(1+{\frac {0.14}{4}}\right)^{4*6.25}}[/tex]

[tex]{\displaystyle A=40,000\left(1+0.035\right)^{25}}[/tex]

A=$94,529.80

The investment of $40,000 is worth $94,529.80 now

The United States Capitol is

located at (2, 4) on a coordinate grid. The White

House is located at (-10, 16) on the same coordinate

grid. Find two different points on a segment joining

the United States Capital and the White House such

that the ratio of the two shorter segments created by

each point is 1:3.

Answers

Answer:

The two different point on a segment joining the United States Capital and the White House such that the ratio of the shorter segments created by each is 1 : 3 are [tex]\vec C_{1} =(-1,7)[/tex] and [tex]\vec C_{2} = (-7,13)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we need to calculate the vector distance between [tex]A(x,y) = (2, 4)[/tex] and [tex]B(x,y) =(-10,16)[/tex] by following vectorial subtraction:

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB} = \vec B - \vec A[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB}[/tex] - Vector distance between points A and B, dimensionless.

[tex]\vec A[/tex], [tex]\vec B[/tex] - Vector distance between each point and origin, dimensionless.

If we know that [tex]A(x,y) = (2, 4)[/tex] and [tex]B(x,y) =(-10,16)[/tex], then we have the following result:

[tex]\overrightarrow {AB} = (-10,16)-(2,4)[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB} = (-10-2,16-4)[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB} = (-12,12)[/tex]

Besides, we can find the location of any point inside the line segment by using the following vectorial equation:

[tex]\vec C = \vec A + r\cdot \overrightarrow{AB}[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where:

[tex]r[/tex] - Segment factor, dimensionless.

[tex]\vec C[/tex] - Location of resulting point, dimensionless.

There are two different options for the location of resulting point: [tex]r_{1} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]r_{2} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]. Now we proceed to find each option:

[tex]r_{1} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{1} = (2,4) +\frac{1}{4}\cdot (-12,12)[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{1} = (2,4)+(-3,3)[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{1} =(-1,7)[/tex]

[tex]r_{2} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{2} = (2,4) +\frac{3}{4}\cdot (-12,12)[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{2} = (2,4) +(-9,9)[/tex]

[tex]\vec C_{2} = (-7,13)[/tex]

The two different point on a segment joining the United States Capital and the White House such that the ratio of the shorter segments created by each is 1 : 3 are [tex]\vec C_{1} =(-1,7)[/tex] and [tex]\vec C_{2} = (-7,13)[/tex].
