Solution:

Number 5:

The diameter of the Ferris wheel is given as


d=190ft

The formula to calculate the distance of one revolution is given below as


\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ \pi=3.14 \\ r=(190)/(2)ft=95ft \end{gathered}

By substituting the values, we will have


\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ C=2*3.14*95ft \\ C=596.6ft \end{gathered}

For three revolutions, we will have the distance to be


\begin{gathered} D=596.6ft*3 \\ D=1789.8ft \end{gathered}

Hence,

The distance he will travel in those 3 revolutions is


\Rightarrow1789.8ft

Number 4:

The formula for the area of a sector is given below as


\begin{gathered} A=(\theta)/(360)*\pi r^2 \\ A=(8)/(360)*3.14*(95)^2 \\ A=629.74ft^2 \end{gathered}

Hence,

The area of the sector to the nearest hundredth is


\Rightarrow629.74ft^2
