The maximum radius of each ball is 3.33 cm.

<h3>What is a Cylinder?</h3>

A cylinder is a three-dimensional figure which is made of two parallel circular bases separated at a certain distance by a curved surface of the same radius as that of the bases.

A 20 cm nail perfectly fits the cylinder.

So the height of the cylinder = 20cm.

A sphere is a three-dimensional geometrical figure analogous to a circle. All the points of the sphere are at the same distance from the center.

If 3 spheres have to be fitted inside the cylinder,

The sum of the diameter of the spheres will be equal to the height of the cylinder.

The spherical balls are identical and so will have the same diameter

Let the maximum diameter of the sphere that can fit in the cylinder is d cm

Then,

d + d + d = 20

3d = 20

d = 20/3 = 6.67 cm

r = 3.33 cm

The maximum radius that the spheres can have to fit in the cylinder is 3.33 cm.

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a line is 180 degrees, and the base of the cemi-circle is a line. So,  we would have:

x+7x+x=180

9x=180

x=20

Difference is asking for subtraction. The equation would look like:

Top of Hill - Valley = X

(P.S.- 2/3 is equal to . 67)

120.67 - 43.67 = 77

baherus [9]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  " 5 " .
__________________________________________________________
                                →  " a = 5 " .
__________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________ 

Given:  " a + 1 <span>− 2 = 4 " ; Solve for "a" ; 

4 + 2 = 6 ; 

6 </span>− 1 = 5 ;   →  a = 5 ;

To check our work:

5 + 1 − 2 = ? 4 ?? ;  

5 + 1 = 6 ; 

6 − 2 = 4.  Yes!

So the answer is:  [C]:  " 5 ". 
_________________________________________________________
                          →   " a = 5 " .

Round the following number to four significant figures: 3.682417 *
Dovator [93]

Answer:

3.682

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't consider the decimal place or I should say comma so then we read from the first digit as long as it's not zero then until the fourth digit we look at the next digit if it's 5 or greater then we add 1 to the previous digit. And if the next digit is less than 5 then the digit won't change
