The question is incomplete. Below is the complete question:

A pill has the shape of a cylinder with a hemisphere at each end. The height of the cylindrical portion 11

mm and the overall height is 18 mm.

(a) Find the volume of the pill in cubic millimeters. Round to the nearest cubic

millimeter.

(b) If the pill is to contain 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C, then how much vitamin C does the pill contain per

cubic millimeter? Round to the nearest tenth of a cubic millimeter.

Answer:

a. 603 cubic millimetre

b. 1.7 mg/mm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The since the pill has the shape of a cylinder and 2 hemispheres at both ends of the cylinder, if we are to calculate the volume, we will need the formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder and the volume of a hemisphere:

a. The volume of a cylinder = π×r^2×h and the volume of a hemisphere = 2×π×r^3.

The total height of the pill is 18mm but that of the cylinder specifically is 11cm, so 18 - 11 = 7mm.

This becomes the combined radius of the two hemispheres. We will now split it into 2:

7/2 = 3.5mm

This becomes the radius of each of the 2 hemispheres and will be used for calculating their respective volumes. The cylinder too will share same radius with the spheres (3.5mm). Let us take π as 3.14

Volume of the pill is then:

V =[2× (2/3 × π×r^3)] + π×r^2×h

V = [2×[(2/3) × 3.14 × 3.5^3]] + 3.14 × (3.5^2) × 11

[2 × (89.752)] + 423.115

179.504 + 423.115

= 602.619

= 603mm^3 (nearest cubic millimetre)

b. In order to find out how much vitamin C the pill will contain per cubic millimetre if it is to contain 1000mg of vitamin C, we will simply divide 1,000mg by the already calculated volume:

= 1000/63

= 1.658

= 1.7 mg/mm^3 (nearest tenth)

What are the steps to solving this? 70-8x=56+x
guapka [62]

Answer:

x = 14/9

Step-by-step explanation:

70 - 8x = 56 + x

- 8x - x = 56 - 70

- 9x = - 14

- x = - 14/9

x = 14/9

Write and solve a proportion to answer the question. (Skills Review Handbook) 22. 30 is 15% of what number?
algol13

Answer:

The answer is 148.6666667

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Set a linear quation

\frac{22.30}{x}  =  \frac{15}{100}

2) Cross multiply

15x = 22.30 \times 100

3) Multiple the right side

15x = 2230

4) Divide both side by 15

\frac{15x}{15}  =  \frac{2230}{15}

5) Solve the linear equation

x = 148.6666667

There is a 50% probability.

First add up all of the sections to get a total.

10 Green + 15 Purple + 2 Blue + 3 Red = 30.

There are 15 purple out of 30.

15/30 = 1/2 probability, which is 50%.

In twenty years, Kayleen will be four times older than she is today. What is her current age?
eduard
Well there is to equations here that must be equal. X+20=4X Four times old means 4X+X=5X.

If you work to simply the problem you get something that looks like this:
X+20=5X
20=4X
x=20/4 or 5 y/o!
