Answer:

Maggie's age is 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> Maggie's brother age

y ------> Maggie's age

we know that

x+y=43 ------ > equation A

x=3y-9 ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(3y-9)+y=43

4y=43+9

4y=52

y=13

therefore

Maggie's age is 13 years

An action movie production team needs glass spheres to hold a green liquid that looks like an explosive. If all of the available
LuckyWell [14K]
Since all the volume of the liquid will be contained by all 30 spheres then,
30 V = 3392.92

where V is the volume of each sphere
Solving for V
V = 113.0973

The formula for the volume of the sphere is:
V = (4/3) π r³

Since diameter, D = 2r
V = (4/3) π (D/2)³
V = (4/3) π (1/8) D³
V = (1/6) π D³

Since V = 113.0937
113.0937 = (1/6) π D³
D = 6

Therefore, the diameter is 6 inches (THE THIRD OPTION)
