An artist used silver wire to make a square that has a perimeter of 40 inches. she then used copper wire to make the largest circle that could fit in the square, as a shown below
show work

The artist used 8.6 inches more of silver wire

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the square

P = 4*a

P = 4*a = 40 in

a = 10 in

Each side of the square has a length of 10 in

The diameter of the circle is equal to the length of the side of  the square

Diameter = 10 in

Perimeter of the circle

P_c = 2*π*radius  = π*diameter

P_c = (3.14)*10 in = 31.4 in

Inches of silver wire (square)   =  40 in

Inches of copper wire (circle)   =  31.4 in

40- 31.4  in  = 8.6 in

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.
