So Volume (V) of a sphere is:
V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}
so essentially we need to divide the machine's Volume (V) the gumball volume (v)
V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}  = \frac{4}{3} \pi {(6)}^{3}  \\ V =  \frac{4}{3}(216) \pi  = 288\pi
v =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {( \frac{1}{3} )}^{3}  =  \frac{4}{3} \times  \frac{1}{27}  \pi  \\ v =  \frac{4}{81} \pi
now we divide V by v:
V/v =  \frac{288\pi}{ \frac{4\pi}{81} }  =  \frac{288}{1}  \times  \frac{81}{4}  = 5832
so b) 5,832 gumballs can fit in the machine

Give the properties for the equation -2x 2 - y + 10x - 7 = 0.
Sladkaya [172]

Given:

The quadratic equation is

-2x^2-y+10x-7=0

To find:

The vertex of the given quadratic equation.

Solution:

If a quadratic function is f(x)=ax^2+bx+c, then

Vertex=\left(\dfrac{-b}{2a},f(\dfrac{-b}{2a})\right)

We have,

-2x^2-y+10x-7=0

It can be written as

-2x^2+10x-7=y

y=-2x^2+10x-7           ...(i)

Here, a=-2,b=10,c=-7.

\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-10}{2(-2)}

\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-10}{-4}

\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{5}{2}

Putting x=\dfrac{5}{2} in (i), we get

y=-2(\dfrac{5}{2})^2+10(\dfrac{5}{2})-7

y=-2(\dfrac{25}{4})+\dfrac{50}{2}-7

y=\dfrac{-50}{4}+25-7

y=\dfrac{-25}{2}+18

On further simplification, we get

y=\dfrac{-25+36}{2}

y=\dfrac{11}{2}

So, the vertex of the given quadratic equation is \left(\dfrac{5}{2},\dfrac{11}{2}\right).

Therefore, the correct option is A.
