You run around the perimeter of the baseball field at a rate of 9 ft. per second. How long does it take you to run around the baseball field to the nearest 10th of a second?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a shape is the total distance around it.
The formula for determining the perimeter of a circle is
Perimeter = 2πr
Where
r represents radius of the circle.
π is a constant whose value is 3.14
The given circle has a radius of
225 ft. The perimeter would be
2 × 3.14 × 225 = 1413 ft
Therefore, the perimeter of the circular path of the base ball field would be
40/100 × 1413 = 0.4 × 1413 = 565.2 ft
The perimeter of the base ball field would be
565.2 + 300 + 300 = 1165.2 ft
Time = distance/speed
Time it will take you to run around the baseball field is
1165.2/9 = 129.5 seconds
