Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

D. 18 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Matilda is filling a circular section of her porch with colorful pebbles.

Diameter of circular section = 15 feet.

Each bag of pebbles covers 10 square feet.

Question asked:

How many bags of pebbles will Matilda need?

Solution:

Diameter of circular section = 15 feet

Radius, r = (Diameter)/(2)=(15)/(2)  =7.5\ feet

Area\ of\ circular\ section=\pi r^(2)

                                        =(22)/(7) *7.5*7.5=(1237.5)/(7)=176.78} \ square\ feet

10 square feet is covered by number of bag of pebbles = 1

1 square feet is covered by number of bag of pebbles = (1)/(10)

176.78 square feet is covered by number of bags of pebbles =  

(1)/(10)*176.78=17.67

We found up to 17 bags of pebbles there is still some place left to fill the section:-

Thus, Matilda need about 18 bags of pebbles to fill the  circular section of her porch.

3. The company is building a scale model of the theater’s main show tank for an investor's presentation. Each dimension will be made one sixth of the original dimension to accommodate the mock-up in the presentation room. What is the volume of the smaller mock-up tank?

Using the information from #3, answer the following question by filling in the blank: The volume of the original main show tank is ____% of the mock-up of the tank.

Answers

Answer:

1. Volume = 5128.67 ft³

The volume if sphere is given by:

V = (4/3)πr³

If the tank is cut into half vertically, then the volume of sphere becomes.

V = (4/3)πr³ / 2

If the tank is cut into half again horizontally, then the volume of the sphere becomes.

V = (4/3)πr³ / 4

Hence, as the main tank forms a quarter sphere, its Volume is given by:

V = (4/3)πr³ / 4

It is given in the question that the radius is 70 ft.

Substitute that in the given formula:

V = (4/3)π(70)³ / 4

V = 5128.67 ft³

 2. Volume of tank = 461,814 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent tanks implies that both tanks are of identifical shape, form & dimensions. Congruent means that the tanks have the same radius as well as height. Hence, the heights and radii of tanks #1 and #2 are equal and the same.

Let's list out the information given us:

radius(tank #1) = 35 ft ⇒ radius(tank #2) = 35 ft, height(tank #2) = 120 ft ⇒ height(tank #2) = 120 ft

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

The tanks have been cut into half, as such:

Volume of tank = ½πr²h

Volume of tank = Volume(tank #1) + Volume(tank #2)

Since the tanks are congruent (same dimensions), we have:

⇒ ½πr²h + ½πr²h ⇒ πr²h

Volume of tank =  π * 35² * 120 = 147,000 π

Volume of tank = 461,814 ft³

3.  1047.2 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information is missing:

The main show tank has a radius of 60 feet and forms a quarter sphere where the bottom of the pool is spherical and the top of the pool is flat. (Imagine cutting a sphere in half vertically and then cutting it in half horizontally)

The only dimension needed for the main show tank is its radius. Then the model radius will be 1/6 * 60 = 10 feet

The volume of a sphere is:

V = 4/3 * π * r³

For a quarter sphere it is:

V = 4/3 * π * r³ * 1/4

V = 1/3 * π * r³

For the smaller mock-up tank:

V = 1/3 * π * 10³

V = 1047.2 ft³

hope this helps!!

Well, first of all, the bottom 2 lines are cut off of the bottom of Max's solution,
and his final answer doesn't even appear there.

Here . . . let me complete it for you:
Under the part printed on the page should be:

             19  =  19x

               x  =  1

=========================================

Now that Max has an answer, he can check it by writing it into the
original equation wherever there's an 'x' there.

The original:                                (3x-6) / 8  =  (7x-1) / 6

With Max's answer written in:    (3·1 - 6) / 8  =  (7·1-1) / 6

Simplify the left side:                   (3 - 6) / 8  =  (7·1-1) / 6
                                                          -3/8  =  (7·1-1) / 6

Simplify the right side:                       -3/8  =  (7-1) / 6
                                                          -3/8  =   6 / 6
                                                          -3/8  =  1
This result is not a true statement,
so 'x' can't be ' 1 '.

We have to go back, look through Max's work, and find his mistake.
(Actually, Max won't learn anything that way ... MAX should be looking through
his work to find his mistake. But life is not always fair.)

The third line of Max's solution is      3 (3x + 6)  =  4 (7x - 1)

Then he goes on to clear the
parentheses, and the next line is:        9x + 18  =  28x - 1

That's where his mistake is.  The left side is correct,
but on the right side, Max distributed the '4' incorrectly.
Shame on Max. 
This line should be                              9x + 18  =  28x - 4 .


How do i figure this out?

Answers

Answer:

Slope of function A is greater than slope of function B

Step-by-step explanation:

You calculate the gradient (slope) of function B. That is, change in y divided by change in x.

Take point (0, 1) and (2, 5) from the graph of function B.

change in y = 4

change in x = 2

gradient = 2

b(x) = 2x + 1

Therefore the function B has a lesser slope than function A
