Answer: Garrett Jones gathered 388 pecks of oranges.

Garrett Jones gathered 3104 quarts of oranges.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Garrett Jones gathered 97 bushels of oranges from his orange trees.

Since 1 bushel= 4 pecks

Therefore, 97 bushels = $4\times97=388\ \text{pecks}$

Hence, Garrett Jones gathered 388 pecks of oranges.

Also, 1 peck= 8 quarts

Therefore, 388 pecks= $8\times388=3104\text{ quarts}$

Hence, Garrett Jones gathered 3104 quarts of oranges.

Two cubes have their surface areas in the ratio 1:4 , what is the ratio of their volumes ?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

1 : 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For similar figures with ratio of sides = a : b

Then ratio of areas = a² : b² and

ratio of volumes = a³ : b³

Given ratio of areas = 1 : 4

linear ratio = $\sqrt{1}$ : $\sqrt{4}$ = 1 : 2

ratio of volumes = 1³ : 2³ = 1 : 8

You have a wire that is 20 cm long. You wish to cut it into two pieces. One piece will be bent into the shape of a square. The o

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Therefore the circumference of the circle is $=\frac{20\pi}{4+\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the square be s

and the radius of the circle be r

The perimeter of the square is = 4s

The circumference of the circle is =2πr

Given that the length of the wire is 20 cm.

According to the problem,

4s + 2πr =20

⇒2s+πr =10

$\Rightarrow s=\frac{10-\pi r}{2}$

The area of the circle is = πr²

The area of the square is = s²

A represent the total area of the square and circle.

A=πr²+s²

Putting the value of s

$A=\pi r^2+ (\frac{10-\pi r}{2})^2$

$\Rightarrow A= \pi r^2+(\frac{10}{2})^2-2.\frac{10}{2}.\frac{\pi r}{2}+ (\frac{\pi r}{2})^2$

$\Rightarrow A=\pi r^2 +25-5 \pi r +\frac{\pi^2r^2}{4}$

$\Rightarrow A=\pi r^2\frac{4+\pi}{4} -5\pi r +25$

For maximum or minimum $\frac{dA}{dr}=0$

Differentiating with respect to r

$\frac{dA}{dr}= \frac{2\pi r(4+\pi)}{4} -5\pi$

Again differentiating with respect to r

$\frac{d^2A}{dr^2}=\frac{2\pi (4+\pi)}{4}$ > 0

For maximum or minimum

$\frac{dA}{dr}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2\pi r(4+\pi)}{4} -5\pi=0$

$\Rightarrow r = \frac{10\pi }{\pi(4+\pi)}$

$\Rightarrow r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}$

$\frac{d^2A}{dr^2}|_{ r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}}=\frac{2\pi (4+\pi)}{4}>0$

Therefore at $r=\frac{10}{4+\pi}$ , A is minimum.

Therefore the circumference of the circle is

$=2 \pi \frac{10}{4+\pi}$

$=\frac{20\pi}{4+\pi}$
