Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference formula is
[tex]2\pi r[/tex]
where r is the radius
The circumference of the NAVY Pier Wheel is 439.6
We know the circumference so we solve for r.
[tex]2\pi r=439.6[/tex]
[tex]r=69.6=70[/tex]
So our radius is 70.
The circumference of Navy is 56% of the original wheel. So we can just set up a proportion.
[tex]\frac{56}{100} =\frac{439.6}{y}[/tex] to find the new circumference.
We simplify that and we get y=485
Know we find the radius,
[tex]2\pi r=785[/tex]
r=[tex]\frac{785}{2\pi } =125[/tex]
So our radius is 125.
3. The first Ferris wheel circumference is 785. We divide 9 by that to find the wheel movement per minute.
785/9= 87.2 feet per minute
