Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The carousel at a local theme park has a diameter of 32 feet.

Each ride last three minutes and the speed of the carousel is 4.3 revolutions per minute.

Question asked:

What is the maximum distance riders travel in one full ride? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Solution:

First of all we will find the radius of the carousel:-

Diameter = 32 feet

Radius, r =

Now, we will find distance covered by the carousel in one ride that means its circumference;

In 1 minute, number of revolution taken by carousel = 4.3

As each ride last for 3 minutes:-

In 3 minutes, number of revolution taken by carousel = 3 4.3 = 12.9

In 1 revolution, distance covered by carousel = 100.571 feet

In 12.9 revolution, distance covered by carousel = 100.571   12.9

                                                                                 = 1297.365 feet

Thus, the maximum distance riders travel in one full ride is 1297.37 feet.
