Answer:

28 feet farther than 1st ball.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Susan threw a softball 42 yards on her first try and 51\frac{1}{3} yard on her second try.

To find second ball is how much farther from the 1st ball, we will subtract 42 yards from 51\frac{1}{3} yards.

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=51\frac{1}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}

Let us have a common denominator.

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{42*3}{3}\text{ yards}  

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{126}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154-126}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{1 yard}=3\text{ feet}

\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=\frac{28}{3}\times 3\text{ feet}

\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=28\text{ feet}

Therefore, Susan thrown the second ball 28 feet farther from the 1st ball.

To find 40% of 75 and calculate 2 of 5 . 75 . Does her calculation Correct value for 40% of 75
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Yes, her calculation is correct. The value of 40% of 75 is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of 40% of 75 is

\frac{40}{100}\times 75=\frac{3000}{100}=30

The value of \frac{2}{5} of 75 is

\frac{2}{5}\times 75=2\times 15=30

From the above calculation it is noticed that the value of 40% of 75 and \frac{2}{5} of 75 are same, therefore the calculation is correct and the  value of 40% of 75 is 30.

How do you go about doing this surface area problem?
hammer [34]
Break it down into 2-Dimensional shapes. Then add the areas together.

From the picture you can see;
front & back rectangles are 2*(4 x 8) = 64 m²
2 side rectangles are 2*(4 x 12) = 56 m²
2 triangular front & back pieces are (1/2)*8*3 = 12 m²
2 roof rectangles are 2*(5 x 12) = 120 m²

total Surface area = 64 m² + 56 m² + 12 m² + 120 m²
= 252 m²

For the volume; break it up into 3-dimenssional shapes and add the volumes together.

From the picture you can see;
Rectangular box volume is 4 x 8 x 12 = 384 m³
Triangular roof volume is area of front triangle multiplied through the length. (1/2)*8*3* 12 = 144 m³

Total volume = 384 m³ + 144 m³
= 528 m³
