Answer:

  • x = -1
  • y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference (d) can be found using the first and 4th terms:

  a1 = 3

  a4 = a1 +d(4 -1)

  -9 = 3 +3d . . . . . simplify

  -3 = 1 + d . . . . . . divide by 3

  -4 = d . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

Then ...

  x = a1 + d = 3 -4 = -1

  y = x + d = -1 -4 = -5

The values of x and y are -1 and -5, respectively.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a. 20,579.52 cubic inches

b.10,289.76  cubic inches.

c. 13.49 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the volume of a sphere:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3 π r³

Since diameter (d) = 2 radius (r)

Replacing with the value given:

34 =2r

34/2=r

r= 17 in

Back with the volume formula:

V = 4/3 π r³

V =4/3 π (17)³

V = 20,579.52 cubic inches

The volume of the half-inflated balloon is equal to the volume of the sphere divided by 2.

20,579.52/2 = 10,289.76  cubic inches.

To find the radius of the half-inflated balloon we have to apply again the volume formula and substitute v=10,289.76

10,289.76= 4/3 π r³

Solving for r

10,289.76/ (4/3 π)= r³

2,456.5 = r³

∛2,456.5 = r

r = 13.49 inches
