Mariah has a spinner that has 10 equal sections, each containing a different number from 1 to 10. Mariah determines about how ma

ny times the spinner will land on a number that is greater than 7 in 250 spins, and her work is shown below.
P(number greater than 7)= Numbers greater than 7/ Total number of sections times number of spins = 4/10 (250) = 100

What mistake did Mariah make, if any?

She wrote a 4 instead of a 3.

There are only 3 numbers that are greater than 7. They are 8, 9, and 10. Mariah must have include 7 in her list. That is how she got 4 instead of 3.

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 numbers greater than 7 on this spinner:  8, 9 and 10.  Mariah wrote 4 instead of 3, which makes her probability higher.  

She should have:

3/10(250) = 750/10 = 75

12 spheres of the same size are made from melting a solid cylinder of 1 cm diameter and 2 cm height. Find the diameter of each s
mars1129 [50]

The answer is: The diameter is 4 centimeters.

The explanation  is shown below:

1. The volume of the cylinder is:

Vc=r^{2}h \pi

Where r is the radius (r=\frac{16cm}{2}=8cm) and h is the height (h=2cm).

Then:

Vc=(8cm)^{2}}(2cm)\pi\\Vc=128\pi

2. The total volume of the 12 spheres is:

Vs=12(\frac{4}{3}r^{3}\pi)\\Vs=16r^{3}\pi

3. The volume of the cylinder and the total volume of all the 12 spheres, are equal, therefore:

Vc=Vs\\128\pi=16r^{3}\pi

4. Now, you must solve for the radius:

r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{128\pi}{16\pi}}\\r=2cm

5. The diameter is:

d=2r\\d=2(2cm)\\d=4cm

Tell whether the sequence is arithmetic. If it is, what is the common difference?
Ilya [14]
The answer is B. Yes; 4

Arithmetic sequence is the type of sequence of numbers which difference between each number will always remain constant
in the sequence above we could see the difference between one number with another is exactly 4:

15 + 4 = 19

19 + 4 = 23

23 + 4 = 27
