Write a function rule that gives the total cost c(p) of pounds of sugar if each pound cost $.59

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: c(p) = 0.59*p

All we do is multiply the price per pound (0.59) by the number of pounds (p). In this case, we don't know how many pounds there are. So we leave p as is. If for instance, we had 10 pounds, then we'd replace p with 10. The variable is simply a placeholder for the unknown number.

Compare the surface area-to-volume ratios of the moon and mars. express your answer using two significant figures.

antoniya [11.8K]

we know that

For a spherical planet of radius r, the volume V and the surface area SA is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3} *\pi *r^{3} \\ \\ SA=4*\pi *r^{2}$

The
ratio of these two quantities may be written as

$SAV =\frac{(4*\pi*r^{2})}{(\frac{4}{3}*\pi*r^{3})} \\ \\ SAV =\frac{3}{r}$

we know

$rMoon=1,738Km\\ rMars=3,397 Km$

$\frac{SAV Moon}{SAV Mars} =\frac{3}{rMoon} *\frac{rMars}{3} \\ \\ \frac{SAV Moon}{SAV Mars} =\frac{rMars}{rMoon} \\ \\ \frac{SAV Moon}{SAV Mars} =\frac{3,397}{1,738} \\ \\ \frac{SAV Moon}{SAV Mars} =1.9545$

therefore

the answer is

$1.9$

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The length of the building's shadow = 550.66 ft

Explanations:

The height of the Empie State Building = 1250 feet

The friend's height = 75 inches

The length of the friend's shadow = 33 inches

$\frac{Actual\text{ height of the friend}}{\text{Length of the friend's shadow}}=\text{ }\frac{Height\text{ of the building}}{\text{Length of the building's shadow}}$ $\begin{gathered} \frac{75}{33}=\text{ }\frac{1250}{\text{Length of the building's shadow}} \\ 2.27\text{ = }\frac{1250}{\text{Length of the building's shadow}} \\ \text{Length of the building's shadow = }\frac{1250}{2.27} \\ \text{Length of the building's shadow = }550.66\text{ f}et \end{gathered}$
