Answer:

181 million km

Step-by-step explanation:

"Correct to the nearest unit" means the actual value might be 1/2 unit larger (or smaller) than the reported value.

The upper bound would be the product of the maximum number of bicycles and the maximum distance each travels:

(72.5 · 10^6 bicycles)(2.5 km/bicycle) = 181.25 · 10^6 km

Since the given numbers are good to 2 significant figures (or so), we might reasonably put the upper bound as 180·10^6 km.

∠ABC and ∠DBC are complementary angles. If ∠ABC=6x+13 and ∠DBC=4x−3 what is the value of x?

Natalka [10]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Complimentary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees. If ABC and DBC are complimentary, then when added together, it equals 90 degrees.

ABC + DBC = 90

6x+13+4x−3 = 90

10x+10 = 90

10x = 80

x = 8

A 3-gallon tub of ice cream yields about 90 scoops of ice cream. There are roughly 3785 cubic centimeters in 1 gallon. Determine

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The radius of the scoop is r = 3.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3 gallons yields 90 scoops, and 1 gallon = 3785 cm³.

3 gallons = 3 × 3785 cm³ = 11355 cm³

So we have 11355 cm³ in 3 gallons which is also the volume of 90 scoops.

Since 90 scoops = 11355 cm³, then

1 scoop = 11355 cm³/90 = 126.2 cm³

Now, if each scoop is a sphere, the volume is given by V = 4πr³/3 where r is the radius of the scoop. Since we need to find the radius of the scoop, r, making r subject of the formula, we have

r = ∛(3V/4π)

Substituting V = 126.2 cm³, we have

r = ∛(3× 126.2 cm³/4π)

= ∛(378.6 cm³/12.57)

= ∛30.13 cm³

= 3.1 cm

So, the radius of the scoop is r = 3.1 cm

A conical tent has a radius of 10.4 ft and a height of 8.4 ft. Doubling which dimensions will quadruple the volume of the tent?

avanturin [10]

Answer: Doubling the radius.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone can be found with the following formula:

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of the cone.

Let's find the volume of the conical tent with a radius of 10.4 feet and a height of 8.4 feet.

Identifiying that:

$r=10.4\ ft\\\\h=8.4\ ft$

You get this volume:

$V_1=\frac{1}{3}\pi (10.4\ ft)^2(8.4\ ft)\\\\V_1=951.43\ ft^3$

If you double the radius, the volume of the conical tent will be:

$V_2=\frac{1}{3}\pi (2*10.4\ ft)^2(8.4\ ft)\\\\V_2=3,805.70\ ft^3$

When you divide both volumes, you get:

$\frac{3,805.70\ ft^3}{951.43\ ft^3}=4$

Therefore, doubling the radius will quadruple the volume of the tent.
