d=2.5 \ in \\ \\ r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.5}{2}=1.25 \ in \\ \\ \pi=3.14 \\ \\Volume \ of \ a \ Cylinder : \\ \\V = \pi r^2 h

h=3\cdot d = 3*2.5 = 7.5 \ in \\ \\V_{c} = 3.14\cdot (1.25)^2\cdot 7.5 = 23.55 * 1.5625=36.80 \ in^3

A) First we calculate the volume of each ball:

\boxed{V=\frac{4\pi r^3}{3}}\\
\\
\boxed{V=\frac{4*(3,14)*(1.25)^3}{3}=8,177 \ square \ inch}

b) Now we calculate the volume of tree balls:

\boxed{V_T=3*8,177=24.531 \ square \ inch}

c) Now we calculate the volume of cylinder:

c1) Base area:

\boxed{A_b=\pi r^2}\\
\\
\boxed{A_b=3,14*(1,25)^2=4.906 \ square \ inch}

c2) Cylinder height

\boxed{h=3*(2.5)=7.5 \ inch}

c3) Cylinder Volume:

V_C=A_b*h\\
\\
\boxed{V_C=4.906*7.5=36.795 \ cubic \ inch}

d) Finally we calculate the internal space:

\boxed{\boxed{s=36.795-24.531= 12,264\ cubic \ inch}}

When solving a literal equation, what is the trick for isolating a variable that appears more than once?
Paha777 [63]

Literal equations, simply put, are equations containing two or more variables. Your goal is to solve for just one variable with respect to others. If you know how to solve regular equations, then I guarantee you that solving literal equations will be a breeze.

The "heart" of literal equation is to isolate or keep by itself a certain variable on one side of the equation (either left or right) and the rest on the opposite side.

Image is below, please help me fast i have 2 minutes left, thank you very much
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 90

= 1/3 * 90

= 90/3

= 30

Let the missing number be x.

2/3 of x

= 2/3 * x

= 2x/3

30 = 2x/3

Cross multiply,

2x = 30 * 3

2x = 90

x = 90/2

x = 45

Hence,

the missing number is 45.

(1) the diameter is 20 inches whats the radius? And whats the circumference?
Alecsey [184]

(1) the diameter is 20 inches whats the radius? And whats the circumference?

Radius is half the diameter, Answer: 10 inches

Circumference is pi times the radius, Answer: 10π inches

I won't bother with the approximation, though this one is easy, 31.4159 inches.  I'll leave the rest of the calculator work to you if necessary.

(2) the diameter 11 inches whats the radius? And whats the circumference?

Radius half, Answer: 5.5 inches.   Circ: 5.5π inches

(3) the diameter 3.5 inches whats the radius? And whats the circumference?

Radius, 1.75 inches.  Circ: 1.75π inches
