Answer:   The answer to your question is Cost of a serving = $0.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

diameter = 3.5 in

height = 5 in

each serving = 15 in³

Cost of the can = $1.99

Process

1.- Calculate the volume of the can

Volume = πr²h

-Substitution

Volume = (3.14)(3.5/2)²(5)

-Simplification

Volume = (3.14)(3.062)(5)

-Result

Volume = 48.08 in³

2.- Use proportions and cross multiplication to find the cost of a serving.

                  48.08 in³ ---------------- $1.99

                        15  in³ ----------------  x

                         x = (15 x 1.99)/48.08

                         x = 29.85/48.08

                         x = $0.62

Which of the following is true about radiation from the sun?
bearhunter [10]
This isn't a math question and should be in the science section. However, I will still answer the question. The answer is choice B.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a further breakdown

A. False. The radiation or energy from the sun can travel through air or else you wouldn't feel the sun's rays. Also, plant life wouldn't be alive without that energy going through the air.

B. True. The rays travel through a vacuum of space. If they couldn't travel through space, then the same problem comes up as in choice A: the issue of not feeling the sun's rays.

C. False. They rays have different frequencies. Because there are many wavelengths (see choice D below), this means there are different frequencies. Recall that f = 1/w where f is the frequency and w is the wavelength.

D. False. The rays are made of different wavelengths. The visible light portion is what we can see, though there is a lot more to the electromagnetic spectrum (eg: ultraviolet light). 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So once again, the answer is choice B

What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a1=15 and r=1/3
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

15, 5, 5/3, 5/9, 5/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall, that the general form of a geometric series is

a, ar, ar², ar³, .........

where a is the first term and r is the ratio

It is given that the first time is 15, hence a = 15

also given that ratio is 1/3

hence the first 5 terms are:

15, (15)(1/3), (15)(1/3)^2, (15)(1/3)^3, (15)(1/3)^4

simplifying each term gives

15, 5, 5/3, 5/9, 5/27
