Answer:

Therefore 70 year Marc's grandmother be 5 times of as Marc will be after (70-56) = 14 year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Marc was born on his grandmother's 56th birthday.

Let , x year will Marc's grandmother be 5 times as Marc will be then.

At that time the age of Marc will be = (x-56) year

According to the problem,

x= 5(x-56)

⇔x = 5x - 280

⇔x-5x= -280

⇔-4x=-280

⇔x=70

Therefore 70 year Marc's grandmother be 5 times of as Marc will be after (70-56) = 14 year.

Which formula shows a joint variation?

djyliett [7]

The answer is the first option: I, II and III.

The explanation is shown below:

1. By definition, there is a joint variation when a variable depends on two or more different variables. Therefore, you can express it as following:

$y=kxz$

Where $x,y$ and $z$ are the variables and $k$ is the constant of proportionality.

As you can see, $y$ is directly proportional to $x$ and $z$ .

2. Keeping the information above, you have:

I) $V=lwh$ ( $V$ varies jointly with $l$ , $w$ and $h$ .

II) $V=\frac{1}{3}r^{2}h\pi$ (If $\frac{\pi}{3}$ is the constant of proportionality, $V$ varies jointly with $r^{2}$ and $h$ ).

III) $V=Bh$ ( $V$ varies jointly with $B$ and $h$ .

pentagon [3]

Answer:

(2000÷25) x 10= 800mm

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to divide 2000 by 25 to see what the other side is. If you divide it you get 80. Then you have to times it by 10 to convert it

Elena wonders how much water it would take to fill her cup. She drops her pencil in her cup and notices that it just fits diagon

ollegr [7]

Answer:

<h2>The cup can hold 240π cubic centimeters of water.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the cup is a cylinder. The pencil length is simulates a diagonal (hypothenuse), which forms a right triangle with the height of the cylinder and the diameter at the bottom. So, we apply Pythagorean's Theorem.

$17^{2} =15^{2} + d^{2}$

Solving for $d$ , we have

$289 - 225 = d^{2} \\d=\sqrt{64} \\ d=8$

Therefore, the diameter of the cylinder is 8 centimeres, which means its radius is 4 centimeters by definition.

The volume of a cylinder is defined as

$V= \pi r^{2} h$

Where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height. Replacing values, we have

$V= \pi \times 4^{2} \times 15 =\pi \times 16 \times 15\\V=240\pi \ cm^{3}$

Therefore, the cup can hold 240π cubic centimeters of water.
