Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
The weight of trees is calculated using the equation:
[tex]W=b_o+b_1(D^2H)[/tex]
W is the tree weight in tons, D is the diameter of the tree in inches, H is the height of the tree in feet and [tex]b_o \ and\ b_1[/tex] are constants.
The circumference is given by:
Circumference = 2πr
Where r is the radius and 2r is the diameter
Therefore:
14 = 2(22/7)× r
14 = (22/7)×2r
2r= 14 × 7 / 22
Diameter = 2r = 4.455 inches
[tex]W=b_o+b_1(4.45^2*120)\\W = b_o+2381.643b_1\\Let\ us\ assume\ b_o = -35,b_1=1.9.\\Therefore\\W = -35+2381.643(1.9)\\W=4490 \ tons[/tex]
