Answer:

No, it is not a proportional relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of guest and y represents the number of pounds of chicken made,

Given,

The number of pounds of chicken for each guest = 1,

So, the number of pounds for x guests = x,

Also, the number of pounds already made = \frac{8}{9}

Thus, the total pounds of chicken,

y=\frac{8}{9}+x

Since, a relation is called proportional if the variables are directly proportional,

That is, the line obtained by the relation passes through the origin,

Since, if x = 0, y = 0,

0=\frac{8}{9}+0

∴ Line y=\frac{8}{9}+x does not pass through the origin.

Hence, given relation is not proportional.

No, this rel. is not proportional because of the addition involved ("plus 1 lb for each guest").

A proportional rel. features mult. only.

The diameter of a sphere is measured to be 4.17 in.
gtnhenbr [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the radius of the sphere we must convert the inches to centimeters

Using the conversation

1 inch = 2.54 cm

If 1 inch = 2.54 cm

4.17 inch = 2.54 × 4.17 = 10.59 cm

<h2>a).</h2>

We can find the radius using the formula

radius =  \frac{diameter}{2}

From the question

diameter = 10.59 cm

So we have

radius =  \frac{10.59}{2}

<h3>radius = 5.30 cm</h3>

<h2>b).</h2>

Surface area of a sphere= 4πr²

where

r is the radius

Surface area = 4(5.30)²π

= 112.36π

= 352.989

We have the answer as

<h3>Surface area = 353 cm²</h3>

<h2>c).</h2>

Volume of a sphere is given by

\frac{4}{3} \pi  {r}^{3}

r = 5.30

The volume of the sphere is

\frac{4}{3} ( {5.30})^{3} \pi

= 623.61451

We have the answer as

<h2>Volume = 623.6 cm³</h2>

Hope this helps you
