Answer:

Answer:10.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the short side be x.

Then the long side is 3x.

There are two opposite sides of each length, so the perimeter is

3x + 3x + x + x = 8x

The perimeter is 29, so we get the equation

8x = 29

Solve for x by dividing both sides by 8.

x = 29/8

x = 3.625

The longer side is 3x.

3x = 3(3.625) = 10.875

Answer: 10.875

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In parallelogram, diagonals bisect each other

DP = IP

7x - 8 = 3x

7x       = 3x + 8

7x - 3x = 8

      4x = 8

       x = 8/4

     x = 2

NP = YP

3y = 7x - 2

3y = 7*2 - 2

3y = 14 - 2

3y = 12

y = 12/3

y = 4

Tennis balls with a diameter of 2.5 in.are sold in cans of three. The can is a cylinder. What is the volume of the space in the
Alexxandr [17]

Using 3.14 for PI.

The radius of a ball and the can is half the diameter = 1.25

The height of the can is the height of 3 diameters = 7.5

Volume of one tennis ball:

4/3 x PI x 1.25^3 = 8.18 cubic inches.

Volume of 3 tennis balls: 3 x 8.18 = 24.54 cubic inches.

Volume of can:

PI x 1.25^2 x 7.5 = 36.80 cubic inches.

Space = 36.80 - 24.54 = 12.26 cubic inches.
