2. Carissa also has a sink that is shaped like a half-sphere. The sink has a volume of 2000/3 pi in^3 . One day, her sink clogge

d. She has to use one of two conical cups to scoop the water out of the sink. The sink is completely full when Carissa begins scooping.
(a) One cup has a diameter of 4 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must Carissa scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it? Round the number of scoops to the nearest whole number.
I got the answer 62.5 and then rounded to 63 cups.

(b) One cup has a diameter of 8 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must she scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it? Round the number of scoops to the nearest whole number.
I got 15.625 and rounded to 16 cups.

Yes, your answers are correct.

The volume of a cone is given by V = 1/3πr²h.  Since the diameter of the first cone is 4, the radius is 2; therefore the volume is

V = 1/3π(2²)(8) = 32π/3

We divide the volume of the sink, 2000π/3, by the volume of the cone:

2000π/3 ÷ 32π/3 = 2000π/3 × 3/32π = 6000π/96π = 62.5 ≈ 63.

The diameter of the second conical cup is 8, so the radius is 4.  The volume then is:

V = 1/3π(4²)(8) = 128π/3

Dividing the volume of the sink, 2000π/3, by 128π/3:

2000π/3 ÷ 128π/3 = 2000π/3 × 3/128π = 6000π/384π = 15.625 ≈ 16

Katrina wants to estimate the proportion of adults who read at least 10 books last year. to do​ so, she obtains a simple random
Vaselesa [24]
E=Z*sqrt (p(1-p)/N), where E= error margin, p=proportion, N=sample size

Katrina's margin error at 85% confidence interval: E=1.96*sqrt (p(1-p)/100) = 0.196 sqrt (1(1-p))

Mathew's margin error at 99% confidence interval: E= 2.58*sqrt (p(1-p)/400) = 0.129 sqrt (p(1-p))

Since both obtained same estimate of proportion (that is, value of p), it can be seen that Mathew's estimate will have a small error (That is, 0.129 is smaller than 0.196). This can be attributed to larger sample size although a wider confidence (99%) interval was considered.

2x + 8 - 3x = 3 What is x and please show your work
Nitella [24]
So what you will need to do is subtract 2x - 3x = -x, then subtract three from both sides 8 - 3 and the answer will be -x + 5

Denver, Engle and Fido are all dogs who eat differing amounts of dog food.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

If Denver gets 8/19 of the food, 11/19 of the food is left between Engle and Fido.

If the food is shared in a ratio of 6 : 2 between the pair, Engle gets 6/8 and Fido gets 2/8.

Thus, 2/8 = 25%.

What is the value of p?<br><br> A. 125°<br> B. 45°<br> C. 35°<br> D. 550
Vikki [24]

Answer:

C- 35 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angle adjacent to 90° angle = 90° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Interior angle adjacent to 125° angle = 55° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Sum of two interior angles of the triangle = 55+90 = 145°

∠p = 180° - 145° = 35°
