Answer:

a) 3

b) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The point P is(3,4)

which means that 3 is the point P's x- coordinate and 4 is it's y-coordinate

Because we use the axes as our reference point when plotting points,

the distance of P from x-axis and y-axis would be the point itself.

A sphere has a volume of approximately 113 cubic units. Which of the following best represents the radius of the sphere?

Kitty [74]

Answer:

H. 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question, we have to apply the formula for the sphere volume. The formula is:

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

Plugging the given number into V, we calculate that:

$113 = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\\84.75 = \pi r^{3} \\$

If π=3.14, the radius is:

r ≈ 3 units.

The numerator and the denominator of a fraction are thirteen and fifty, respectively. When a certain number is added to this num

Talja [164]

(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x

(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio
