Asprinkler that sprays water in a circular area can be adjusted to spray up to 30 feet. turning the radius-reduction screw on the top of the nozzle let's people reduce the radius by up to 25percent. to the nearest tenth, what is the maximum area of lawn that can be watered by the sprinkler if the radius reduction is used at full capacity?

Area_lawn = 393.75 π ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum radius : 30 feet

Minimum radius:  30 feet - 0.25*(30feet)  =  22.5 feet

(25 percent reduction)

To find the area of lawn that can be watered, we just need to calculate the area for the maximum radius and the minimum radius, and then subtract them.

Since the sprinklers have a circular area:

Area = π*radius^2

Max area  = π*(30 ft)^2 = 900π ft^2

Min area  = π*(22.5 ft)^2 = 506.25π ft^2

Maximum area of lawn that can be watered by the sprinkler:

Area_lawn = Max area - Min area = 900π ft^2 -506.25π ft^2

Area_lawn = 393.75 π ft^2

10.416 meters per second

step-by-step explanation:

distance=1 00 meters

time= 9.6 seconds in decimal form or 9 3/5 as a mixed number

average speed= 100/9.6

=10.416 meters per second or 10 52/125 as a mixed number.
