Water leaves a spigot at a rate of 462 cubic inches per minute. How many cubic feet of water is this per hour? (Round your answe

Answer: Circle C has a radius of 7 cm.

Explanation:

Referring to the illustration below:

Let's denote the radius of circle C as x.

Circle A's radius can be represented as 2x.

Circle B's radius can be expressed as 4x.

The length of side AC in triangle ΔABC becomes x + 2x = 3x.

For side BC of triangle ΔABC, we get 4x + x = 5x.

Similarly, for side AB of triangle ΔABC, it is 4x + 2x = 6x.

Given that the perimeter of triangle ΔABC totals 98 cm.

Remember, the perimeter refers to the total length around the triangle.

Hence, Perimeter = 6x + 5x + 3x = 98 cm.

Thus, 14x = 98.

From this, we find x = .

Therefore, x = 7.

This concludes that the radius of circle C is 7 cm.

Answer:

a) The first inequality is 100 + 55x > 150 + 51x;

b) The final inequality results in x > 12.5

c) Sal's mother will need to use the second phone for at least 13 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let x represent the number of months.

1. The first phone is priced at $100, with a monthly fee of $55 for unlimited use, leading to a total cost of $(100 + 55x) for x months.

2. The second phone costs $150 with a monthly fee of $51 for unlimited use, resulting in a total of $(150 + 51x) for x months.

3. For the second phone to be cheaper, we set up the inequality:

150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

which simplifies to

100 + 55x > 150 + 51x

b) Now solve this:

55x - 51x > 150 - 100

4x > 50

so x > 12.5

c) This means Sal's mother has to retain the second phone for at least 13 months (since x > 12.5).
