We want to compute the area of a cylindrical water tank. The radius of the base is 3.141 ±.0005 meters, and the height is 1.234+0.0005 meters. Give the best estimate for the area, including plus- or-minus. (Note: formula for area is 2h + ², where r is the radius and h is the height.) Every evening, the probability that I will see a deer is 0.1, accurate to 4 percent. What is the probability that I will see a deer every evening for the next 7 days? Give also a percentage error for your estimate. (Note: the probabilities should be multiplied.)

If the radius of the wheel is increased by 1 foot to a radius 3 feet, by how much must the rope be lengthened to fit around the wheel? b. Consider a rope wrapped around the Earths equator. We noted in Exercise 17 that the radius of the Earth is about 4000 miles. That is 21,120,000 feet. Suppose now that rope is to be suspended exactly 1 foot above the equator. By how much must the rope be lengthened to accomplish this? The Size of the Earth The radius of the Earth is approximately 4000 miles. a. How far is it around the equator?
