Estimate the weight of 6 apples.

Mathematics
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]4 years ago

The answer:  1533 g {"grams"} ;  or even "1530 g" or "1500 g" ; would be an acceptable estimate.
_______________________________________________________
<u><em>Note</em></u>:  We are asked to:  "Estimate the weight of 6 (six) apples."

Given: (from the table—within the image attached):  
_______________________________________________________
"2 apples weigh "511 g" ; 


"then "6 apples" would weigh about 3 times that weight;  since: 

  "2 apples;  multiplied by "3" , is "6 apples" .

so:  "511 g * 3 ≈  500 g * 3 = 1500 g ". 

or:  
"511 g * 3 ≈ 510 g * 3  = (500 g * 3)  + (10 g * 3) = (1500 + 30) g = 1530 g. 

or:   

"511 g * 3 ≈ 511 g * 3  = (500 g * 3)  + (11 g * 3) = (1500 + 33) g = 1533 g.
______________________________________________________
Note:  The table shows that the given numbers of apples, along with their respective weights, are not [evenly and equally] proportional —reflecting the fact that there is variation among weight in apples across the board.

The diameter of a cylindrical construction pipe is 4ft If the pipe is 17ft long, what is its volume? Use the value 3.14 for /pi,
zvonat [6]

Answer:

214 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are asked to calculate the volume of the cylindrical construction pipe.

Mathematically, the volume V

V = pi * r^2 * h

r is radius = diameter/2 = 4/2 = 2 ft

h = 17ft

pi = 3.14

Putting these values, we have;

V = 3.14 * 2^2 * 17 = 213.52 which is 214 ft^3 to the nearest whole number
