You would multiply 4 on both sides
5x=2
then you would divide 5 on both sides
x=2/5

How much of the sphere do you have to paint red so that no matter ow you put a cube in it, some corner touches red?
Triss [41]

Explanation:

To achive that you have to piant a ring in red, which will have its big diameter equal to the sphere diameter and its small diameter equal to the cube diagonal.

The diagonal of the cube can be calculated using Pithagoras:

D^2=L^2+L^2

Where D is the diagonal and L is the side of the cube

Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were millio
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The amount of oil was decreasing at 69300 barrels, yearly

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial =1\ million

6\ years\ later = 500,000

Required

At what rate did oil decrease when 600000 barrels remain

To do this, we make use of the following notations

t = Time

A = Amount left in the well

So:

\frac{dA}{dt} = kA

Where k represents the constant of proportionality

\frac{dA}{dt} = kA

Multiply both sides by dt/A

\frac{dA}{dt} * \frac{dt}{A} = kA * \frac{dt}{A}

\frac{dA}{A}  = k\ dt

Integrate both sides

\int\ {\frac{dA}{A}  = \int\ {k\ dt}

ln\ A = kt + lnC

Make A, the subject

A = Ce^{kt}

t = 0\ when\ A =1\ million i.e. At initial

So, we have:

A = Ce^{kt}

1000000 = Ce^{k*0}

1000000 = Ce^{0}

1000000 = C*1

1000000 = C

C =1000000

Substitute C =1000000 in A = Ce^{kt}

A = 1000000e^{kt}

To solve for k;

6\ years\ later = 500,000

i.e.

t = 6\ A = 500000

So:

500000= 1000000e^{k*6}

Divide both sides by 1000000

0.5= e^{k*6}

Take natural logarithm (ln) of both sides

ln(0.5) = ln(e^{k*6})

ln(0.5) = k*6

Solve for k

k = \frac{ln(0.5)}{6}

k = \frac{-0.693}{6}

k = -0.1155

Recall that:

\frac{dA}{dt} = kA

Where

\frac{dA}{dt} = Rate

So, when

A = 600000

The rate is:

\frac{dA}{dt} = -0.1155 * 600000

\frac{dA}{dt} = -69300

<em>Hence, the amount of oil was decreasing at 69300 barrels, yearly</em>

How to divide 33 photos into two groups so the ratio is 4 to 7
Nataliya [291]
33 photos in a 4x to 7x ratio

4x + 7x = 33
11x = 33
x = 3

33 photos can be put in a 4(3) to 7(3) ratio

which is a 12 to 21 ratio

so 12 photos on one side, and 21 on the other side to get the ratio of 4 to 7

Note:
<span>a(b) = ab = a x b = a times b</span>
