Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a cylinder is expressed as

Volume = πr²h

Where

r represents the radius of the cylinder.

h represents the height of the cylinder.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Considering the 16 oz jar,

h = 7 inches

Diameter = 5 inches

Radius = diameter/2 = 5/2

r = 2.5 inches

Volume = 3.14 × 2.5² × 7 = 137.375 inches³

Considering the 29 oz jar,

h = 7.5 inches

Diameter = 5.25 inches

Radius = diameter/2 = 5.25/2

r = 2.625 inches

Volume = 3.14 × 2.625² × 7.5 = 162.27 inches³

1) If the cost is directly proportional to​ volume, then

If 137.375 inches³ cost $1.6

then 162.27 inches³ should cost

(162.27 × 1.6)/137.375 = $1.89

The price of the larger jar would be $1.89

2) If the cost is directly proportional to​ weight, then

If 16 oz cost $1.6, then

29 oz would cost

(29 × 1.6)/16 = $2.9

The price of the larger jar would be $2.9

A 15 foot flagpole casts an 11 foot shadow. At the exact same time a 28 foot tree casts a shadow. Which proportion would correct
marishachu [46]
The longer an object, the longer the shadow they cast at a given time of the day and vice versa. This is called direct proportionality. At the same time,

If 15 foot flagpole ---- casts 11 foot shandow
    28 foot tree -------- casts ?? foot shadow

The proportion would therefore be:

Length of shadow cast by tree = (28/15)*11 = 20.533 foot.
