so all those quadratics have their parent y = x², which has the graph of a "bowl".

and depending on the coefficient, the bowl is wider or not.

the larger the coefficient, the narrower the bowl, the smaller the coefficient, the wider the bowl.

well, 1/2 is smaller then 2, thus y = (1/2)x² is wider than y = 2x².

Answer:

130.43 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the difference between the volumes of the balls, we must first find the volumes of the balls. To find the volume of each ball, we must first determine their shape. We understand that both balls are spherical.

The volume V of a sphere wit radius r is given as

V = 4/3 πr³

where r is the result when the diameter of the sphere is divided by 2.

Hence the radius of the Golf ball

= 4.3cm/2

= 2.15cm

radius of the tennis ball

= 6.9cm/2

= 3.45cm

The difference between the volumes of the two balls

= 4/3 π (3.45³ - 2.15³)

= 130.43 cm³

A silk ribbon costs $5.60 for 0.8m. How much does 3.25m of this silk ribbon cost?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

We can first find how much the ribbon cost for 1m by setting an equation.

Let $y be the cost for 1m:

0.8y = 5.60
y = 5.60 ÷ 0.8
y = 7

Now that we know 1m of ribbon cost $7, we can proceed to find how much 3.25m ribbon cost by mutiplying the length with the cost:

7 x 3.25
=$22.75

Therefore the answer is $22.75.

Hope it helps!
