Maths problem. help!!?

1. Given r(square) + 7 = p, express r in terms of p.

2. The radius of a wheel is 21cm. How many revolutions did the wheel make if it travelled a distance of 66m?

Help me!!

  • r^2 + 7 = p

    So, r^2 = p - 7

    So, r = sqrt.(p - 7)............Ans 1.

    radius, r = 21 cm

    Circumference, C = 2 x pi x r = 2 x 21 / 7 x 21 = 126 cm = 1.26 m

    Distance travelled = 66m

    Number of revolutions = 66 / 1.26 = 52.38

    Therefore the wheel completes 52 complete revolutions and little over the third of the 53 rd revolution....................Ans 2.

  • Aluminum is correct for question 1) r = √(p - 7)

    2. Length of wheel with radius 21 cm = 2 * 22/7 * 21 = 132 cm

    132 cm ----> 1 revolution

    66 m = 6600 cm = 6600/132 = 50 revolutions

  • r^2+7=p

    r^2=p-7

    r=sqrt(p-7)

    2 .r=21cm

    C=2pir

    =2.22/7.21

    =132cm=1.32m

    number of revolution=66/1.32

    =50 revolutions
