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

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

11,500 at 2% and $6,000 at 12%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent amount invested at 2% and y represent amount invested at 12%.

We have been given that Theodore invests a total of $17,500 in two accounts. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x+y=17500...(1)

x=17500-y...(1)

We are also told that he invested $17,500 in two accounts paying 2% and 12% annual interest, respectively. After one year, the total interest was $950.00.

Interest earned at 2% in one year would be 0.02x.

Interest earned at 12% in one year would be 0.12y

0.02x+0.12y=950...(1)

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:    

0.02(17500-y)+0.12y=950

350-0.02y+0.12y=950

350+0.10y=950

350-350+0.10y=950-350

0.10y=600

\frac{0.10y}{0.10}=\frac{600}{0.10}

y=6000

Therefore, Theodore invested $6,000 at 12%.

Upon substituting y=6000 in equation (1), we will get:

x=17500-6000

x=11500

Therefore, Theodore invested $11,500 at 2%.
