<span>So we want to know how much sand can we store in a cylinder that has height h=5 feet and a radius r=0.5 feet if we need 0.48 ft^3 of sand for a batch of mortar. That is, how many batches of mortair can we make from the sand in the cylinder. So lets first calculate the volume V of the cylinder: V=r^2 * pi * h=3.925 in^3. Now lets divide the volume by 0.48 so we get the unit od sand needed for one batch od mortar: V/0.48= 8.177083. The nearest whole number is 8. </span>

If you buy a car for 15500 an average on an average a new car loses 11% of its value the moment that is driven off the lot once
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$13,795

Step-by-step explanation:

15500/x=100/11

(15500/x)*x=(100/11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

15500=9.0909090909091*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.0909090909091) to get x

15500/9.0909090909091=x  

1705=x  

x=1705

now we have:  

11% of 15500=1705
