What is the area of the largest circular fire that can be made in this fire pit? Use 3.14 for π. Round to the nearest square inch.
!no absurd answers, please! : (

Area of the largest circle fit in the fire pit is 4069.44 square inches.

Solution:

Length of the rectangular pit = 7 feet

Width of the rectangular pit = 6 feet

The diameter of a largest circle inscribed in a rectangle is equal to the smaller side of the rectangle.

Diameter of the largest circle = 6 feet

Radius of the largest circle = 3 feet

Area of the circle = πr²

                             = 3.14 × 3²

Area of the circle = 28.26 square feet

Let us convert square feet into square inches.

1 square feet = 144 square inches

28.26 square feet = 28.26 × 144

                              = 4069.44 square inches

Area of the largest circle fit in the fire pit is 4069.44 square inches.

step-by-step explanation:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.

step-by-step explanation:

given that megan owns a clothing boutique.

the profits of 2010, 11, are recorded and shown as follows:

years since     2010 0     1     2     3       4       5

profits made in 1000's   39       84     111     120   111     84

we find that profit gradually increases form 2010 to 2013 upto 120,   then starts decreasing.

the profits for 2012 and 2014 are the same while that of 2011 and 2015 are also the same.

this shows that there is symmetry about the line profit = 120000

hence answer is:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.
