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:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

I numbered the squares, see the picture below

Angle 3 and the angle given are vertical angles so they measure the same

             angle 3 = 137°

The sum of the angles 1, 2, 3 and 137 equals 360°, so

  angle 1 + 137 + angle 3 + 137 = 360

   and angle 1 and 3 are vertical angles so angle 1 = angle 3

   2angle 1 = 360 - 137 -137

    2 angle 1 = 86

        angle 1 = 86 /2

        angle 1 = 43°

        angle 2 = 43°

The angle given and the angle 5 are corresponding angles, they measure the same

        angle 5 = 137°

Angle 5 and 6 are vertical angles, they measure the same

        angle 6 = 137°

Angle 2 and angle 7 are corresponding angles, they measure the same

        angle 7 = 43°

Angle 3 and angle 6 are corresponding angles

         angle 6 = 137°

Angle 4 and 7 are vertical angle, so they measure the same

         angle 4 = 43°

How many solutions does the system have?
sertanlavr [38]
If a solution(s) exists y=y so we can say:

x^2-3x=-2x+2  add 2x to both sides

x^2-x=2  subtract 2 from both sides

x^2-x-2=0  factor

(x-2)(x+1)=0

So x=-1 and 2, using y=-2x+2 we find:

y(-1)=4 and y(2)=-2

So the two solutions occur at the points:

(-1,4) and (2,-2)
