3. A Ferris wheel is moving around in a circle in a counterclockwise direction. It has a radius of 200 feet and is moving at a rate of 1 revolution per minute. A passenger is at the "3 - o'clock” position when t= 0. Its lowest point is 10 feet off the ground. Write an equation that represents the height of the chair in terms of time. At what time would the passenger get off the Ferris wheel?

Use the radius you found in part i (r=26.8 cm) with the surface area formula below to find the surface area of the sphere. show your work and round your answer to the nearest tenth. the surface area of a sphere: sa = 4πr^2 self note: 3.8.4

What value of x will make the triangles similar by the sss similarity theorem?

The rate of decay of a radioactive substance depends upon the amount present initially. the mass y (mg) of the radioactive substance cobalt-60 present in a sample at time t (years) is represented by the exponential equation y=50e −0.1315 t . answer the following questions in complete sentences. 1. how does the exponential equation above compare to the equation for simple interest that is compounded continuously? explain the similarities. 2. what is the initial amount of cobalt-60 in the sample? 2. how much cobalt-60 is left after 8.4 years? show your work. 3. what would be the y-intercept of the graph? what does it represent? 4. after how many years will the amount of cobalt-60 left be 6.25 mg? explain what happens to the cobalt-60 after 50 years? 5. discuss some “real-world” examples and uses of cobalt-60
