A person is purchasing a new golf club bag. The compartment for the golf balls is approximately the shape of a rectangular prism

with the dimensions of 8 inches by 11 inches by 5 inches. Assuming golf balls are spherical with a 1.68 inch diameter, how many golf balls should fit in the compartment bag?

Answer:

The answer to your question is: ≈ 178 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

rectangular prism = 8 in x 11 in x 5 in

golf balls = 1.68 in diameter

Formula

Volume rectangular prism = l x w x h = 8 x 11 x 5 = 440 in³

Volume of ball = (4/3) πr³ = (4/3) (3.1416) (0.84)³ = 2.48 in³

# of balls inside the compartment = volume rectangular prism / volume ball

# of balls = 440 / 2.48

               = 177.4 ≈ 178 balls

Whats the best definition<br> of slope
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The slope of a line is a number that defines the direction + steepness of a linear function. It can be found using the formula rise/run.

\bf 0.444444444\overline{4}\impliedby \textit{and keeps on going}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{let's say }\boxed{x=0.444444444\overline{4}}\quad \textit{ thus }10\cdot x=4.44444444\overline{4}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{wait a minute! }4.44444444\overline{4}\textit{ is really just }4+0.444444444\overline{4}

you can check in your calculator.

anyhow, to get the "recurring decimal to fraction", you start by setting to some variable, "x" in this case, then move the repeating part to the left of the point by multiplying it by some power of 10, and then do the equating.

A car starts from an initial velocity of 10m/s and accelerates at 2.5m/s².how long will it take the car to reach a speed of 40m/
PIT_PIT [208]
A=(v-u)/t
We know a=2.5, v=40, u=10, so:
2.5=(40-10)/t
2.5t=40-10
2.5t=30
Divide both sides by 2.5
t=12 It takes 12 seconds for the car to reach 40m/s

To find out how far it went, you do:
d=v+1/2 at^2
d=10+1/2(2.5)(12)^2
d=10+1/2(2.5)(144)
d=10+(1.25)(72)
d=10+90
d=100m

Hope this helps :)

Line j has an equation of y - 8 = -2/3(x+5). Line K is perpendicular to line j and passes + through (-6, -2). What is the equati
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

y - 8 = - \frac{2}{3} (x + 5) ← is in point- slope form

with m = - \frac{2}{3}

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{2}{3} } = \frac{3}{2}

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept ) , then

y = \frac{3}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 6, - 2 ) into the partial equation

- 2 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 9 = 7

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 7 ← equation of line K

how many different license plates can be formed if each plate plate has 5 different digits followed by 1 letter
Elina [12.6K]

This is a fundamental counting principle problem and can be solved by multiplying the number of choices you have for each digit of the license plate.

For the first five digits you can choose from the numbers 0,1,2...,9 or 10 choices.

A we cannot repeat the digits, so, first five digits will be:

10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6

Now the next 1 digit will all be letter all being different

There are 26 letters in the alphabet.. for our second digit we have 26 choices,

Here is the whole calculation:

= 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 26

= 786240
