Use a proportion.

3 counselors to 24 campers equals x counselors to 40 campers.

3/24 = x/40

1/8 = x/40

x = 1/8 * 40

x = 5

Find the diameter of a cone that has a volume of 83.74 cubic inches and a height of 5 inches. Use 3.14 for pi.

Agata [3.3K]

Volume of cube = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h
83.74 = 1/3 x 3.14 x r^2 x 5 = 5.233r^2
r^2 = 83.74/5.233 = 16
r = sqrt(16) = 4

Therefore, d = 2(4) = 8 inches.

wolverine [178]

Answer: Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the binomial probability formula, we have

$P(X=x)=^nC_xp^{x}q^{n-x}$

Here, n = number of events

x = number of trials

p = probability of success

q = probability of failure

x is the number of trials among which we decide the number of successes and number of failures.

So, Option 'A' is correct.
