Mary's house is approximately 49.73 miles from her grandmother's house.

The distances the three drove were;

Mary drove for 49.73 miles, Theo drove 50 miles and Nancy drove 53.299 miles.

Explanation:

  • The given triangle has a 13 mile long adjacent side, a 48 mile long opposite side and the distance of Mary's route is the hypotenuse. As we have two sides of the triangle, we can solve for the length of the other side by using Pythagoras' theorem.
  • Assume the hypotenuse of the triangle measures x miles. According to Pythagoras theorem, x = √(13² + 48²) , x = √169 + 2,304 x = √2,473 = 49.729. Rounding this off, we get Mary's route was 49.73 miles long.
  • Nancy drove √2,840 miles = 53.2916 miles.
  • So Mary drove the shortest distance of 49.73 miles, second shortest was Theo who drove for 50 miles and the longest was Nancy who drove for 53.299 miles.

Romashka [77]

Answer:

11,880 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that from a pool of 12 candidates, the offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer will be filled. We are asked to find the number of ways in which the offices can be filled.

We will use permutations for solve our given problem.

^nP_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}, where,

n = Number of total items,  

r = Items being chosen at a time.        

For our given scenario n=12 and r=4.

^{12}P_4=\frac{12!}{(12-4)!}

^{12}P_4=\frac{12!}{8!}

^{12}P_4=\frac{12*11*10*9*8!}{8!}

^{12}P_4=12*11*10*9

^{12}P_4=11,880

Therefore, offices can be filled in 11,880 different ways.

A water balloon has a diameter of 6 inches. How many cubic inches of water does it contain when it is 3/4 full
Travka [436]
Below are the choices that can be found from other sources:

A) 36 pi 
<span>B) 6 pi </span>
<span>C) 27 pi </span>
<span>D) 216 pi </span>
<span>E) 48 pi
</span>
A sphere's volume is (4/3)*pi*r^3. 
<span>The diameter of the balloon is 6 inches. The diameter is twice the radius. The radius is 3 inches. </span>

<span>(4/3)*pi*3^3 = 36 * pi </span>

<span>But the balloon is only 3/4 full. So </span>

<span>36 * (3/4) * pi = 27 * pi. </span>

<span>The balloon has 27 pi cubic inches of water.</span>
