The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 96. What is the smallest of the three numbers

1 answer:

8 0

The answer is 30.

First off, the numbers are consecutive even numbers. So, the difference between every consecutive number is 2 (numbers go from even to odd to even to odd...). Since the sum of their numbers is 96, I divided that by 3 to get 32. This gives me the median of the three numbers. To find the smallest number, I simply subtracted 2 from the 32.

This may help:

96/3=32

32 + 32 + 32 = 96
(32-2)+(32+0)+(32+2)=96
30+32+34=93

The classrooms are trying to raise $1,200.00 for charity.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The classes need to raise $164.86 more to reach their goal of $1200.

Step-by-step explanation:

$1,200 total

Mrs. LeBlanc's class has raised 50% of the total, so they've raised $600.

1200/2 = 600

Mr. Patel's class has raised $235.14.

235.14 + 600 = 835.14

Ms. Warner's class has raised 1/3 of the total of Mrs. LeBlanc's class ($600), so they've raised $200.

600/3 = 200

835.14 + 200 = 1035.14

The three classes have raised a combined total of $1035.14.

1200 - 1035.14 = 164.86

The classes need to raise $164.86 more to reach their goal of $1200.

The image shows three tennis balls enclosed in a cylindrical can. Choose all that are correct. The volume of a single tennis bal

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The volume of a single tennis ball is $14.14\ in^{3}$

The volume of three tennis balls is $42.42\ in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the volume of a single tennis ball

we know that

The volume of a sphere is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

where r is the radius of the sphere

In this problem

$r=3/2=1.5\ in$

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (1.5)^{3}$

$V=14.14\ in^{3}$

Step 2

Find the volume of the can

we know that

the volume of the cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2} h$

where r is the radius of the cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

in this problem we have

$r=3/2=1.5\ in$

$h=8.4\ in$

substitute

$V=\pi (1.5)^{2}(8.4)$

$V=59.38\ in^{3}$

Statement

case A) The volume of a single tennis ball is $14.14\ in^{3}$

The statement is true

See the procedure in Step 1

case B) The volume of the can is $56.55\ in^{3}$

The statement is false

The volume of the can is $59.38\ in^{3}$ --> see the procedure Step 2

case C) The empty space inside the can is $14.13\ in^{3}$

The statement is false

To find the empty space subtract the volume of three tennis ball from the volume of the can

$59.38\ in^{3}-3*14.14\ in^{3}=16.96\ in^{3}$

case D) The volume of three tennis balls is $42.42\ in^{3}$

The statement is true

To find the volume of three tennis balls multiply the volume of a single tennis ball by three

$14.14*3=42.42\ in^{3}$
