A person is purchasing a new golf club bag. The compartment for the golf balls is approximately the shape of a rectangular prism

with the dimensions of 8 inches by 11 inches by 5 inches. Assuming golf balls are spherical with a 1.68 inch diameter, how many golf balls should fit in the compartment bag?

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 161 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

rectangular prism = 8 in x 11 in x 5 in

diameter golf balls = 1.68 in radius = 1.68/ 2 = 0.84 in

Formula

Volume rectangular prism = l x w x h

Volume sphere = (4/3)π r³

Process

Volume rectangular prism = 8 x 11 x 5 = 400 in³

Volume balls = (4/3) (3.1416) (0.84)³ = 2.48

# of balls in the compartment = volumen rectangular prism / volume balls

# of balls in the compartment = 400 / 2.48 = 161. 29

Consider the graph of the line y = x – 4 and the point (−4, 2).

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

a. The slope of a line parallel to the given line is 1

b. A point on the line parallel to the given line, passing through (−4, 2), is (1,7)

c. The slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is -1

d. A point on the line perpendicular to the given line, passing through (−4, 2), is (3,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

a. For the line $y = x - 4$

You can identify that:

$m=1$

By definition, two lines are parallel if they have the same slope. Then, the slope of a line parallel to the given line is:

$m=1$

b. The equation of the line in Point-slope form is:

$y -y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

Where m is the slope and ( $x_1,y_1$ ) is a point of the line.

Given the point (-4,2), substitute this point and the slope of the line into the equation:

$y -2 = (x +4)$

Give a value to "x", substitute it into this equation and solve for "y":

For $x=1$ :

$y -2 = (1 +4)$

$y= 5+2$

$y= 7$

Then, you get the point (1,7)

c. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, then the slope of a line perpendicular to the given line is:

$m=-\frac{1}{1}\\\\m=-1$

d. Given the point (-4,2), substitute this point and the slope of the line into the equation:

$y -2 = -1(x +4)$

$y -2 = -(x +4)$

Give a value to "x", substitute it into this equation and solve for "y":

For $x=3$ :

$y -2 = -(3 +4)$

$y= -7+2$

$y= -5$

Then, you get the point (3,-5)

What is the value of minus 6 x cubed minus y squared minus 3 x y if if x = -2 and y = 4

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Well, "minus 6 x cubed minus y squared minus 3 x y" translates to:

$-6x^{2} -y^{2} -3xy$

Then, if we insert the values for x and y, we get:

$-6(-2)^{2} -(4)^{2} -3(-2)(4)$

When we distribute and multiply:

$144-16-24$

And once we combine like terms:
