Answer:

a) y= 0.65x

b) 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If x=the number of students who are offered admission to the university and y =the number of students who actually enroll  the ratio y/x= 65/100

So  if we multiply both sides by x, we will get y=0.65 x

b) If y= 0.65x and we want y= 1300, replace this into the equation , then we have \frac{1300}{x} = 0.65

Then x=  \frac{1300}{0.65}, that is x= 2000

goblinko [34]
So 4 inches diameter result the radius is 4/2 = 2 inches 

area of base = pir^2 = 3,14*2^2 = 3,14*4 = 12,56 inches squared 

volume = area of base *height 

V = 12,56 *9 = 113,04 so rounded 113,05 inches cubed 

hope this will help you
