The volume of a sphere is 4/3(pi)r^3
Substituting,

4/3(pi)(4.7^3) = 303.7 cubic inches.

The formula for the volume of a sphere is $V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ . Plugging in 4.7 for your radius, we get $V= \frac{4}{3} \pi 4.7^2= \frac{4}{3} \pi 22.09= \frac{88.36}{3} \pi$ , which is roughly 29.453π≈92.530.

What is the total cost of a $95.00 item with a sales tax of 6%

MaRussiya [10]

Answer: $100.70

Step-by-step explanation: 6% is equal to 0.06, so you can add multiply the price of the item by 1.06 because that is the base cost plus the tax. Then you get $100.70.

Sn = (a1) x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

Substituting the known values:

S5 = (6) x (1 - (1/3)^5) / (1 - 1/3) = 242/27 = 8 24/27 = 8 8/9

A ball is projected in to the air. Its height at time t is given by the equation

Ksju [112]

The equation gives the height of the ball. That is, h is the height of the ball. t is the time. Since we are looking for the time at which the height is 8 (h=8), we need to set the equation equal to 8 and solve for t. We do this as follows:

$h=-16 t^{2} +60t+1$
$8=-16 t^{2} +60t+1$
$16 t^{2} -60t-1+8=0$
$16 t^{2} -60t+7=0$

This is a quadratic equation and as it is set equal to 0 we can solve it using the quadratic formula. That formula is:
$t= \frac{-bplus minus \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$
You might recall seeing this as "x=..." but since our equation is in terms of t we use "t-=..."

In order to use the formula we need to identify a, b and c.
a = the coefficient (number in front of) $t^{2}$ = 16.
b = the coefficient of t = -60
c = the constant (the number that is by itself) = 7

Substituting these into the quadratic formula gives us:
$t= \frac{-(-60)plus minus \sqrt{ (-60)^{2}-4(16)(7) } }{2(16)}$
$t= \frac{60plus minus \sqrt{3600-448 } }{32}$
$t= \frac{60plus minus \sqrt{3152 } }{32}$

As we have "plus minus" (this is usually written in symbols with a plus sign over a minus sign) we split the equation in two and obtain:
$t= \frac{60+56.1426}{32} =3.63$
and
$t= \frac{60-56.1426}{32} =.12$

So the height is 8 feet at t = 3.63 and t=.12

It should make sense that there are two times. The ball goes up, reaches it's highest height and then comes back down. As such the height will be 8 at some point on the way up and also at some point on the way down.
