A can holds 4 golf balls. The diameter of each golf ball is 5 cm. What is the volume of the empty space inside the can?
forsale [732]

Answer:

Volume of the empty space in the can  is 327.05  cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of golf ball the can holds = 4

Diameter of the golf ball = 5 cm

To Find:

Volume of the empty space in the can = ?

Solution:

Step 1:  Finding the volume of one golf ball

Ball is shape of the sphere

So lets use the volume of the sphere formula

Volume of the  golf ball = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Radius =\frac{5}{2} = 2.5 cm

Substituting the values

Volume of the  golf ball  

=\frac{4}{3} \pi \times(2.5)^3

=\frac{4}{3} \pi \times (15.625)

= \frac{4}{3} \times 49.06

= \frac{196.24}{3}

= 65.41

Step 2:  Finding the volume of empty space of the can

volume of empty space of the can =  volume of 5 golf ball

= 5 X 65.41

= 327.05

Write down the quadratic equation whose roots are $x = -7$ and $x = 1,$ and the coefficient of $x^2$ is 1. Enter your answer in
pav-90 [236]
<h2>Steps:</h2>

So firstly, since we know that the coefficient of x² is 1, this means that this is our base equation:

y = x² + bx + c

Now, since we know that the roots are -7 and 1, set y = 0 and set x = -7 and 1 and simplify:

0=(-7)^2+b(-7)+c\\0=49-7b+c\\-49=-7b+c\\\\0=1^2+b(1)+c\\0=1+b+c\\-1=b+c\\\\-49=-7b+c\\-1=b+c

Now with this, we can set up a system of equations to solve for b and c. For this, I will be using the elimination method. For this, subtract the 2 equations:

\begin{alignedat}{2}-49&=-7b+c\\-(-1&=b+c)\\-48&=-8b\end{alignedat}

Now that the c variable has been eliminated we can solve for b. For this, divide both sides by -8 and your first part of your answer is b = 6.

Now that we know the value of b, plug it into either equation to solve for c:

-49=-7(6)+c\\-49=-42+c\\-7=c\\\\-1=6+c\\-7=c

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Putting it together, your final answer is x² + 6x - 7 = 0.</u>

12. The sum of three consecutive integers is 12 more than twice the largest integer. Which of the following
baherus [9]

Answer:

OPTION 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive numbers be n, (n + 1) and (n + 2).

Note that the largest number of the three is (n + 2) and the smallest is n.

So, according to the given data, the sum of all the three integers is equal to 1 more than twice more than the largest number.

Writing it mathematically, we have:

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 12 + 2(n + 2)

This is OPTION (4) and is the answer,
