Answer:

a)  81π  in³

b)  27  in³

c)  divide the volume of the slice of cake by the volume of the whole cake

d)  10.6%

e)  see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Part (a)</u></h3>

The cake can be modeled as a <u>cylinder </u>with:

  • diameter = 9 in
  • height = 4 in

\sf Radius=\dfrac{1}{2}diameter \implies r=4.5\:in

\textsf{Volume of a cylinder}=\sf \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}

\begin{aligned}\sf \implies \textsf{Volume of the cake} & =\pi (4.5)^2(4)\\ & = \sf \pi (20.25)(4)\\ & = \sf81 \pi \:\: in^3\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Part (b)</u></h3>

\begin{aligned}\textsf{Circumference of the cake} & = \sf \pi d\\& = \sf 9 \pi \:\:in\end{aligned}

If each slice of cake has an arc length of 3 in, then the volume of each slice is 3/9π of the entire volume of the cake.

\begin{aligned}\implies \textsf{Volume of slice of cake} & = \sf \dfrac{3}{9 \pi} \times \textsf{volume of cake}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{3}{9 \pi} \times 81 \pi\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{243 \pi}{9 \pi}\\\\& = \sf 27\:\:in^3\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Part (c)</u></h3>

The volume of each slice of cake is 27 in³.

The volume of the whole cake is 81π in³.

To calculate the probability that the first slice of cake will have the marble, divide the volume of a slice by the volume of the whole cake:

\begin{aligned}\implies \sf Probability & = \sf \dfrac{27}{81 \pi}\\\\& = \sf 0.1061032954...\\\\ & = \sf 10.6\% \:\:(1\:d.p.)\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Part (d)</u></h3>

Probability is approximately 10.6%  (see above for calculation)

<h3><u>Part (e)</u></h3>

If the four slices of cake are cut and passed out <em>before </em>anyone eats or looks for the marble, the probability of getting the marble is the same for everyone. If one slice of cake is cut and checked for the marble before the next slice is cut, the probability will increase as the volume of the entire cake decreases, <u>until the marble is found</u>.  So it depends upon how the cake is cut and distributed as to whether Hattie's strategy makes sense.

Answer:F B G E A

Step-by-step explanation:

1. F( a rigid transformation only changes the position but the size and angles remain the same)

2. B(The angle of rotation symmetry is the smallest angle the figure can be rotated to coincide with itself.)

3. G(Congruent means that it is the same size and shape)

4. E(Translation moves the whole shape including the points so that the shape and sizes remain the same)

5. A(Though it's position may change, reflective symmetry ensures that no other parts of the shape can change no matter what.)

Explain how to solve -4(1.75 + x) =18
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

first change any decimal to a whole. -4(175+x)=18. Then times -4 by 175 and x, -700+ 4x =18. Then add +700 to -700 which equals just 4x ,then add +700 to 18, which is 4x = 718. then divide both sides by 4 and estimate. x= 180
