Michael has a sink that is shaped like a half-sphere. The sink has a volume of 3000 3 in3. One day, his sink is clogged. He has

to use one of two cylindrical cups to scoop the water out of the sink. The sink is completely full when Michael begins scooping. (a) One cup has a diameter of 6 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must Michael scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it? Round the number of scoops to the nearest whole number. (b) One cup has a diameter of 10 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must he scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it? Round the number of scoops to the nearest whole number

Answer:

Part a) 42\ cups

Part b) 15\ cups

Step-by-step explanation:we know that

The volume of the sink (half sphere) is equal to

V=3,000\pi \ in^{3}

Part a) One cup has a diameter of 6 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must Michael scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it?

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

V=\pi r^{2}h

we have

r=6/2=3\ in ----> the radius is half the diameter

h=8\ in

substitute the values

V=\pi (3)^{2}(8)=72\pi\ in^{3}

To find the number of cups divide the total volume of the sink by the volume of the cylinder

\frac{3,000\pi}{72\pi} =41.67\ cups

Round to the nearest whole number

41.67=42\ cups

Part b) One cup has a diameter of 10 in. and a height of 8 in. How many cups of water must Michael scoop out of the sink with this cup to empty it?

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

V=\pi r^{2}h

we have

r=10/2=5\ in ----> the radius is half the diameter

h=8\ in

substitute the values

V=\pi (5)^{2}(8)=200\pi\ in^{3}

To find the number of cups divide the total volume of the sink by the volume of the cylinder

\frac{3,000\pi}{200\pi} =15\ cups

1. Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card. He plans to pay the minimum payment
atroni [7]

Given:

Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card.

He plans to pay the minimum payment  of $25 per month.

To find:

The rate of change.

Solution:

Let y be the remaining amount of loan after x months.

Initial amount of loan = $450

Payment of one month = $25

Payment of x months = $25x

Now,

Remining amount = Initial amount of loan - Payment of x months

y=450-25x     ...(i)

The slope intercept form is

y=mx+b     ...(ii)

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

From (i) and (ii), we get

m=-25

Therefore, the rate of change is -25 dollars.

What is the solution of the linear system of equations? please help
Mademuasel [1]
Sub for each other since both equals y
2x-3=y=2x+5
2x-3=2x+5
minus 2x oth sides
-3=5
false

no solution
(we can see that since slopes are same and y intercepts are differnt, the lines are paralell and therfor never intersect)

In a basketball game Anya makes 14 baskets. Some of these baskets were worth 2-points and others were worth 3-points. In total s
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

She made 12 two point basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of 2 point basket is x and that of 3 point basket is y.

Based on the question the total numbers of basket is 14, that is x + y = 14 , and the total numbers of points is 30, which helps us with our second equation 2(x) +3(y)=30.

x + y = 14 eqn 1

2(x) +3(y)=30 eqn 2

Using elimination method multiplying eqn 1 by -3 and adding it to equation 2

-3x-3 y = -42 adding to eqn 2 gives

-x= -12

x=12. Which gives the number of the 2 points basket she made .
