12inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the backboard = Area of the rectangle+area of the semicircle

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Area of the semicircle = πd²/8

Area of the backboard = LW+πd²/8

From the diagram, we are given

L = 1.5inches

W = 4inches = diameter of the semicircle

Substitute the given parameters into the formula:

Area of the backboard = (1.5×4)+(π(4)²/8)

Area of the backboard = 6.0+16(3.14)/8

Area of the backboard = 6.0+2(3.14)

Area of the backboard = 6.0+6.28

area of the backboard = 12.28in²

Hence the measurement closest to the area of the model of the backboard in square inches is 12inches

Answer from: Quest

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity". that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. this has important considerations for the human body's comfort. when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. evaporation is a cooling process. when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases. in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions. the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases. the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions. there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
