When estimating the number of spheres contained in a prism we should account for the empty space between the spheres. To do this

we find 190% of the volume of the sphere and use that value in our estimation.
If gumballs have a 2 inch diameter, what should we use as the volume of each gumball in our calculation? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)


A. 4.2 cubic inches

B. 8.0 cubic inches

C. 33.5 cubic inches

D. 5280 cubic inches

Answer:

B. 8.0 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find 190% of the volume of a gumball which is a sphere.

To find 190% of a quantity, multiply the quantity by 1.9.

volume of sphere = (4/3)(pi)(r^3)

diameter = d = 2 in.

radius = r = (1/2)d = (1/2)(2 in.) = 1 in.

volume of sphere = (4/3)(3.14159)(1 in.)^3 = 4.189 in.^3

The volume of a gumball is 4.189 in.^3

Now we need 190% of that volume.

190% of volume of sphere = 1.9 * volume = 1.9 * 4.189 in.^3 = 7.959 in.^3

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume is

B. 8.0 cubic inches

How can the zero product be applied to real life
ddd [48]

Answer:

The zero product property states that if a⋅b=0 then either a or b equal zero. This basic property helps us solve equations like (x+2)(x-5)=0.

The Zero Product Property simply states that if ab=0 , then either a=0  or  b=0 (or both). A product of factors is zero if and only if one or more of the factors is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it helps

1) Which linear equation BEST represents the line of best fit for the scatterplot? A) y = x B) y = 3x C) y = -3x D) y = 5x + 1 2
Tresset [83]

Answer:

1) A. y = x + 2

Once a line of best fit has been placed upon a scatter graph it is straightforward to find the equation. The general equation of a straight line is: y = mx + c Where m is the slope (gradient) of the line and c is the y-intercept.

4) d. strong positive correlation.

The slope of the line is positive. Most points lie close to the line.  

(I am not sure if this is correct or not, I am so sorry)
