Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the line equation
where
- m is the rate of change or slope
A hot air balloon is descending at a rate of 287 feet per minute.
Thus, the rate of change m = -287
The negative sign indicates that a hot air balloon is descending.
Let y be elevation.
Let x be the time (in minutes)
As there is no mentioning of the initial height.
Thus, the y-intercept b = 0
now substituting m = -287 and b = 0
y = mx + b
y = -287x + 0
y = -287x
In order to determine the total change in elevation of the balloon in 4 minutes, we need to substitute x = 4 in the equation y = -287x.
Thus, the total change in elevation of the balloon in 4 minutes will be:
y = -287x
y = -287(4)
y = -1148 feet
The negative sign indicates that that the elevation is decreasing.
According to PEMDAS, these are the steps for evaluating this equation -
3-9=-6
-6 x 5 = -30 - 1 = -31
-31 x 6 = -186, + 2 = -184
Now our first answer is -184 (I think this is correct)
Next thing we'll do is the second equation
8-2 = 6
6 x 7 = 42
42 + 4 = 46
Now, we can divide :) -184 / 46 equals -4
Hope this helps :D!
Answer:
91.
Step-by-step explanation:
The least number will be a multiple of 7 while the number - 1 will be a multiple of 2,3 and 5.
2*3*5 = 30 but 31 is not a multiple of 7.
2*2*3*5 = 60 but 61 is not divisible by 7.
2*3*3*5 = 90 and 91 is divisible by 7.
This question is a piece-o-cake if you know the formulas for the area and volume of a sphere, and impossible of you don't.
Area of a sphere = 4 π R² (just happens to be the area of 4 great circles)
Volume of a sphere = (4/3) π R³
We know the area of this sphere's great circle, so we can use the
first formula to find the sphere's radius. Then, once we know the
radius, we can use the second formula to find its volume.
Area of 4 great circles = 4 π R²
Area of ONE great circle = π R²
225 π cm² = π R²
R² = 225 cm²
R = √225cm² = 15 cm .
Now we have a number for R, so off we go to the formula for volume.
Volume = (4/3) π R³
= (4/3) π (15 cm)³
= (4/3) π (3,375 cm³)
= 14,137.17 cm³ (rounded)
This answer feels very good UNTIL you look at the choices.
_____________________________________________________
I've gone around several loops and twists trying to find out what gives here,
but have come up dry.
The only thing I found is the possibility of a misprint in the question:
If the area of a great circle is 225π cm², then the sphere's AREA is 900π cm².
I'm sure this is not the discrepancy. I'll leave my solution here, and hope
someone else can find why I'm so mismatched with the choices.
The answer is A. Hope this helps!
