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

Infinitely many, because if you simplified the right side, it would equal the left side.

Find the slope of the line (4,5),(-3,-1)
koban [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

{ \rm{slope =  \frac{y _{2} - y _{1} }{x _{2} - x _{1} } }} \\

• y2 → -1

• y1 → 5

• x1 → 4

• x2 → -3

{ \tt{slope =  \frac{ - 1 - 5}{ - 3 - 4} }} \\  \\ { \tt{slope =  \frac{ - 6}{ - 7} }} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \tt{ \: slope =  \frac{6}{7} }}}
