Answer:

Jupiter is about 5.6 times further from the Sun than the Earth is from the Sun.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The distance from the Earth to the Sun = 90,000,000 miles

Converting it into scientific form:

90,000,000 = 9\times 10^7\\\text{Comparing to } 9\times 10^a\\\Rightarrow a=7

The distance from Jupiter to the Sun = 500,000,000 miles

Converting it into scientific form:

500,000,000 = 5\times 10^8\\\text{Comparing to } 5\times 10^b\\\Rightarrow b=8

Distance of Jupiter from the Sun and the Earth  from the Sun =

\displaystyle\frac{\text{Distance between Jupiter and Sun}}{\text{Distance between Earth and Sun}}\\\\=\frac{5\times 10^8}{9\times 10^7} = 5.55 \appox 5.6

Hence, Jupiter is about 5.6 times further from the Sun than the Earth is from the Sun.

10*a = 10000000

a = 1000000, one million

5*10*b = 500000000

b = 10000000, ten million

About ten times.

The volume of a? cone-shaped hole is 49 pi ft cubed . If the hole is 3 ft? deep, what is the radius of the? hole?
lidiya [134]

\bf \textit{volume of a cone}\\\\ V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=3\\ V=49\pi \end{cases}\implies 49\pi =\cfrac{\pi r^2(3)}{3}\implies 49\pi =\pi r^2 \\\\\\ \cfrac{49\pi }{\pi }=r^2\implies 49=r^2\implies \sqrt{49}=r\implies 7=r

What is the volume of the prism shaped containers
ss7ja [257]

Answer:Volume of a cube = side times side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side cubed. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the volume would be 4 inches times 4 inches times 4 inches, or 64 cubic inches. (Cubic inches can also be written in3.)
