Horace measured a circular lid and found d, the diameter, was 8 inches and C, the circumference, was 25 inches.

A/C ≅ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter of circle d = 8 in

Circumference of the circle C= 25 in

Let us assume we have to find the area of the circular lid  A =

⇒ A=

Therefore ratio of area to circumference A/C = 50.24/25 = 2.0096≅2

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.
