(a)
To calculate: the value of pi up to seven, and graph the values on the number line.
(a)
Answer to Problem 49PPS
The value of (p) up to seven decimal places is 3.1428571
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Pi (p) is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal. The two common estimates for pi are 3.14 and
Calculation:
The value of (p) up to seven decimal places is 3.1428571.
Now, graph the values on the number line:
(b)
To write:An inequality to represent the values of Pi.
(b)
Answer to Problem 49PPS
The inequality to represent the values is:
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Pi (p) is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal. The two common estimates for pi are 3.14 and
The inequality to represent the values is:
(c)
To state: when one might use 3.14 to find the circumference of a
(c)
Answer to Problem 49PPS
Use the value of Pi as for the ease of calculation
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Pi (p) is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal. The two common estimates for pi are 3.14 and
The circumference of a circle is the product of Pi and the diameter of the circle. When the diameter is a multiple of 7, one may use the value of Pi as for the ease of calculation. Otherwise, one might use the value of pi as 3.14.
