Answer: 82975.68 apex
Step-by-step explanation:
For the answer to the question, what is the range of actual weights of the object if t<span>he weight of an object on a particular scale is 145.2 lbs. The measured weight may vary from the actual weight by at most 0.3 lbs.?
The answer to your question is </span>144.9 to 145.5
I hope my answer helped you.
To answer this, we need to start with the standard equation for an ellipse:
(x^2/a^2)+(y^2/b^2)=1
Where a is one half of one axis, and b is one half of the other.
The problem states that one axis is 1057 ft, and the other is 880 ft, so divide these values by 2 and square them. This results in:
(x^2/279,312.25)+(y^2/193,600)=1
For verification, if you have a graphing calculator, solve for y, set the size of the window so it should perfectly fit the ellipse, and check (it does)
287.496 in^3 since you take 6.6 * 6.6 *6.6 that should give you your answer
