Answer:

The plates will not fit into the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each plate is 0.5 inches tall; therefore, the stack of 8 plates will have a height of 0.5in*8 = 4inches.

Also, the diameter of the largest plate is 10 inches or has a radius of 5 inches, which matches the radius of the cylindrical box; therefore, we know that the stack of plates can fit into the base area of the cylindrical box.

What we want to figure out now is the height of the cylindrical box <em>to see if it is greater than or equal to 4 inches</em>—<em>the height of the stack of plates. </em>

The volume of a cylinder is \pi R^2h, and since for our cylindrical box the volume is 150 cubic inches; therefore,

\pi R^2h = 150in^3

putting in R = 5in and solving for height h we get

h = \dfrac{150in^3}{\pi (5)^2}

h = 1.91\: inches,

which is not greater than 4 inches, which means the plates will not fit into the box since the height of the stack is greater than the height of the box.

Solve the logarithmic equation. Round the answers to the nearest hundredth. 6+In x=8
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

7.39 ( nearest hundredth )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of logarithms

log_{b} = n ⇔ x = b^{n}

Note that ln x represents log_{e} x

given 6 + ln x = 8 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

ln x = 2 ⇒ x = e^{2} ≈ 7.39
