Answer:

The volume of 10 drops is 0.1 fluid ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of 10 drops, we will follow the steps below;

Using proportion;

Let x be the volume of 10 drops

100 drops = 1 fluid ounce

10 drops = x

Cross-multiply

100×X = 10×1

100x = 10

Divide both-side of the equation by 100

100x/100 = 10/100

At the left-hand side of the equation 100 will cancel-out 100 leaving us with just x while at the right-hand side of the equation 10 will be divided by 100.

Thus;

x = 0.1 fluid ounce

Therefore, the volume of 10 drops is 0.1 fluid ounce

1 floz divided by 100 = 0.01 floz for 1 drop
0.01 x 10 = 0.1 floz for 10 drops

At a zoo, the lion pen has a ring-shaped sidewalk around it. The outer edge of the sidewalk is a circle with a radius of 11 m. T

elixir [45]

Answer:

$\text{Exact area of the sidewalk}=40 \pi\text{ m}^2$

$\text{Approximate area of the sidewalk}=125.6\text{ m}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that at a zoo, the lion pen has a ring-shaped sidewalk around it. The outer edge of the sidewalk is a circle with a radius of 11 m. The inner edge of the sidewalk is a circle with a radius of 9 m.

To find the area of the side walk we will subtract the area of inner edge of the side walk of lion pen from the area of the outer edge of the lion pen.

$\text{Area of circle}=\pi r^2$ , where r represents radius of the circle.
