There are 4 classrooms for fifth grade and 4 classrooms for sixth grade at a school. Each classroom has 20 students. A teacher is planning a field trip for some fifth and sixth grade students at this school. The teacher knows the following information: 90% of fifth and sixth grade students have permission to go on the trip.
4 teachers are going on the trip.
The school requires 1 parent volunteer for every 8 students going on the trip.
Part A
How many parent volunteers are needed to go on the trip?

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Fifth grade has 80 students and sixth grade has 80 students. so if you get 90% of both then you have 72 and 72. Add and divide by 8 and you have the answer of 18 parent volunteers going.

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
