Answer:

<em>(a) 3 inches </em>

<em>(b) Her scale model drawing WILL fit on the piece of paper 8.5 by 7 inches</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling </u>

We use scales to represent realities in reduced spaces. In the case of lengths or surfaces, the scale allows us to draw the shapes in normal sheets of paper.  

(a)

Kelly's rock garden has a length of 6 feet. She uses a 1 inch:2 feet scale. this means that the model length is

6 feet*1 inch/2 feet = 3 inches

(b)

The width of the model is 5 inches, keeping the same scale it means the real length is

5 inches * 2 feet / 1 inch = 10 feet

The model will have 3 inches by 5 inches, it perfectly fits on any regular piece of paper

Volume of this cone
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

669.9 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for volume of a cone:

v=\pi r^2*\frac{h}{3} (3.14*radius*radius*\frac{height}{3} )

r = radius,\pi =pi,h=height.

The radius is 8; the height is 10.

From here, we can just plug the numbers into the formula.

\pi 8^2*\frac{10}{3} (3.14*8*8*\frac{10}{3} ) = 669.866666667.

669.866666667 ≈ 669.9.
