Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\dfrac{3n}{5}=-15\qquad\text{multiply both sides by (-5)}\\\\(-5\!\!\!\!\diagup^1)\left(-\dfrac{3n}{5\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)=(-5)(-15)\\\\3n=75\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\n=25$

Airlines have increasingly outsourced the maintenance of their planes to other companies. A concern voiced by critics is that th

irinina [24]

According to the information that is found in a different source, the recent data does not support the concerns of the critics. These are the numbers shown in the data:

Airline / Outsource Percent / Delay Percent

Alaska / 51.0 / 10.35

American / 29.4 / 20.32

Delta / 36.7 / 14.48

Frontier / 46.3 / 21.42

Hawaiian / 78.4 / 5.06

Based on this data, we can see that the critics do not seem to be justified in their concerns. We can see that airlines have outsourced much of the maintenance of their planes, but that there does not seem to be a strong correlation between this outsourcing and the percentage of delays. For example, the airline that outsources the most is Hawaiian (78.4%), yet it has the lowest percentage of delayed flights (5.06%).

A sphere and the base of a cone have a radius of 3 inches. The volume of the sphere equals the volume of the cone. what is the h

Valentin [98]

So the volume of a sphere is $V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ , and the volume of a cone is $V= \pi r^2 \frac{h}{3}$ (h=height, r=radius). Knowing only the radius, we can solve for the volume of the sphere. (Also I'm going to be leaving answers in pi form.)

$V= \frac{4}{3} \pi 3^3$
Solve the exponents to get $V= \frac{4}{3} \pi 9$
Multiply 4/3 and 9 to get $V=13.5 \pi$

Now that we know the volume of the sphere, we can solve for the height of the cone since the volumes for both are the same.

$13.5 \pi = \pi 3^2 \frac{h}{3}$

Solve the exponents to get $13.5 \pi =9 \pi \frac{h}{3}$

Divide $9 \pi$ on each side to get $1.5= \frac{h}{3}$

Multiply 3 on each side, and your answer should be $4.5=h$
