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.

Are these answers correct?

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

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

0.485

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term is 0.019 more than the term before it.

Therefore to find the next term, we just need to add 0.019 to the last given term:

0.466 + 0.019 = 0.485

The next term is 0.485.

Work this out by giving your answer as a fraction 2/3 - 1/2
suter [353]

When subtracting fractions, you need to make sure the denominators are the same. In 2/3 - 1/2, the denominators are different. To make them the same, find the least common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 6

2/3 becomes 4/6

1/2 becomes 3/6

Now subtract the fractions with the common denominator

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

The answer is 1/6

Hope this helps. Please mark me as Brainliest. Thanks!

The cost of a car rental is ​$30 per day plus 18c per mile. You are on a daily budget of ​$75. Write and solve an inequality to
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

2. 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rental cost = $30

Cost per mile driven = 18 cent

Daily budget = $75

Greatest distance you can drive each day while staying within budget :

Rental cost + (cost per mile driven * distance) ≤ daily budget

$30 + 18d ≤ $75

18d ≤ 75 - 30

18d ≤ 45

d ≤ 45 / 18

d ≤ 2.5

Greatest distance you can drive each day while staying within budget is 2.5 miles.
