Answer:

14708

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth factor is 100% + 2.5% = 102.5% = 1.025

Population after 5 years

= 13000 × $(1.025)^{5}$

≈ 14708 ( to the nearest whole number )

What would be the volume of (a) air (b) plastic in a ball with 25cm diameter made from plastic 2mm thick?

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Part a) The volume of the air is $V=7,794.78\ cm^{3}$

Part b) The volume of the plastic is $V=386.45\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the sphere is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

step 1

Find the volume of the complete ball (air +plastic)

we have

$r=25/2=12.5\ cm$ ------> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (12.5)^{3}$

$V=8,181.23\ cm^{3}$

step 2

Find the volume of the air

we have that

The plastic is 2 mm thick

Convert to cm

2 mm=2/10=0.2 cm

The radius of the interior of the ball is

$r=12.5-0.2=12.3\ cm$

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (12.3)^{3}$

$V=7,794.78\ cm^{3}$ -----> this is the volume of the air (interior of the ball)

step 3

Find the volume of the plastic

we know that

The volume of the plastic is equal to the volume of the complete ball minus the volume of the air

$8,181.23\ cm^{3}-7,794.78\ cm^{3}=386.45\ cm^{3}$

Pleaseeeee helpp me question 2 .

OLga [1]

Answer: If you are supposed to graph a line, it will be a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis) passing through +3 on the y-axis. The slope is 0.

it is a function.

If you are doing range and domain, the range is [3] and the domain is [1,2,3,4,5]

Step-by-step explanation: If there are directions above question 1 that apply to question 2, please add them to the comments.

Maybe someone else will be able to help if it is too late for me to edit this answer.
