30. Crafts. A circular coffee table has a diameter of 5 ft. What will it cost to have the top refinished if the company charges $3 per square foot for the refinishing? = $3.00 x 5 ft =

38. Construction. An A-frame cabin has a triangular front with a base of 30 ft and a height of 20 ft. If the front is to be glass that costs $3 per square foot, what will the glass cost? = 30 ft x 20 ft = 50 ft

44. The distance from Philadelphia to Sea Isle City is 100 mi. A car was driven this distance using tires with a radius of 14 in. How many revolutions of each tire occurred on the trip? 100 mi x 14 in =

#30 is 58.88. Area = pie*(diameter/2) squared
#38 is 900. Area of triangle = .5 base*height

#44 is 73,950

Circumference = Pi X Diameter

So 3.14 X 2.33 ft. (14 in tireX 2 to convert to diameter)/(12 to convert to feet)=7.14 feet per tire revolution and the trip is 100 miles (5280 ftx100) or 528,000 ft. 528,000 ft/7.14= 73,950 tire rotations to complete the trip.

30. it is circular, so the area of the top is pi*r^2=pi*25/4 ft. at a cost of $3 per foot, the total cost is $3*25/4*pi which is about $58.90.

38. the area of a triangle is (1/2)*b*h=(1/2)*30*20=300 ft. so the cost is $3*300=$900.

44. for this one, you need the circumference. it is 2*pi*r=2*pi*14=pi*28 in. 100 mi in inches is 5280 ft/mi * 12 in/ft * 100=63360 in/mi * 100=6336000 in. so now you divide the distance by the circumference:
6336000/(pi*28) which is about 72029 revolutions.


note: i used 3.141592654 as pi. you may need a more precise or less precise estimation, so change your estimation of pi accordingly (use 3.14 instead, for example)

I will help you with #38

The area of a triangle is 1/2 base X height so.....
1/2 30ft X 20 =300 sq. ft
300 sq. ft X $3 per sq. foot= $900

30) d = 5, r = d/2, A = π * r^2, C = 3A
C = 3(π * ((5)/2)^2) ~ $58.90

38) b = 30, h = 20, A = b * h / 2, C = 3A
C = 3((30) * (20) / 2) = $900.00

1 mile = 63,360 inches
44) r = 14, D = 6,336,000, c = π * 2 * r, R = D / c
R = (6336000) / (π * 2 * (14)) ~ 72,029 revolutions

I will help you with #44

circumference of circular tire = 2(pi)r = 87.9646 " (one circumference per revolution)

inches in 100 miles = 5280*12*100 = 6,336,000 "


6,336,000 " / 87.9646 " = approx. 72029 revolutions
