-3/8 = -0.375

-5/8 = -0.625
-1/8 = -0.125
1/4 = 0.25
0.5 = 0.5

Therefore 1/4 & 0.5 & -1/8 > -3/8

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find a number which is greater than the absolute value of -3/8.

Absolute value of -3/8 = 3/8

3/8=0.375

Now, we have to find a number which is greater than 0.375

1/4=0.25

0.25 is smaller than 0.375

0.5 is greater than 0.375

also -5/8 and -1/8 are less than 0.375

Hence, the only number which is greater than the absolute value of -3/8 is:

0.5

15. A cylindrical glass 10 cm tall and 8 cm in diameter is filled to 1 cm

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

No. The new height of the water is less than the height of the glass(6.33 cm<10 cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

-For the water in the glass to overflow, the volume of the inserted solid must be greater than the volume of the empty space or the ensuing height of water >height of glass.

#Volume of the golf ball:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\=\frac{4}{3}\pi \times 4^3\\\\\approx 268.08\ cm^3$

#The volume of the water in the glass:

$V=\pi r^2 h\\\\=\pi \times 4^2\times 10\\\\\approx 50.27\ cm^2$

We then equate the two volumes to the glass' volume to determine the new height of the water:

$V=\pi r^2h\\\\(206.08+50.27)=\pi r^2 h\\\\h=318.35/(\pi \times 4^2)\\\\=6.33\ cm$

Hence, the glass will not overflow since the new height of the water is less than the height of the glass(6.33 cm<10cm).

PLEASE HELP!!!

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Increased by a factor of 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The original circumference is:

C1 = 2 * pi * r1

The new circumference is:

C2 = (2 * pi * r2)

"circumference that is 4 times larger than the original"

(2 * pi * r2) = 4 (2 * pi * r1)

Rewriting:

r2 = 4r1

Answer:

The radius of the original circle is:

increased by a factor of 4

Hope this helps :)
