I believe 2.42 pounds since you convert the answer to decimals and then subtract.

2 3/4 converts to 2.75 and 1/3 is equivalent to 0.333 which is rounded to 0.3 subtract them and you get 2.72 which.

Answer: 2.72 pounds

Find the volume in cm^3 of a right circular cylinder with a radius of 10 cm and height of 14 cm

yawa3891 [41]

4398.22 cm³ the volume of cylinder.

What is volume of cylinder?

'Volume' is a mathematical quantity that shows the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object or a closed surface.
The unit of volume is in cubic units such as m3, cm3, in3 etc.

Given,

Height of cylinder = 14 cm

radius of cylinder = 10 cm

Now using formula volume of the cylinder = π r² h

put value in formula,

3.14 × 10× 10 × 14 = 4398.22 cm³

Therefore, 4398.22 cm³ the volume of cylinder.

Chloe and Libby want to tie Ryan to a bunch of approximately spherical helium balloons of diameter 0.3m. The volume of each ball

dem82 [27]

Answer: Aproximately 2,525 balloons

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the volume of a balloon with the formula given in the problem, where $r$ is the radius ( $r=\frac{0.3m}{2}=0.15m$ ), then:

$V=4(0.15m)^{3}=0.0135m^{3}$

2. Convert the volume from m³ to lliters by multiplying it by 1,000:

$V=0.0135m^{3}*1000=13.5L$

3. You know that that 1 liter of helium can lift 1 gram and that Ryan weighs 5 stone and 5 pounds. So you must make the following conversions:

1 g=0.0022 lb

From 5 stones to pounds

$(5stone)(\frac{14pounds}{1stone})=70pounds=70lbs$

4. Then Ryan's weigh is:

5lb+70lb=75lb

5. Then, if 1 liter of helium can lift 0.0022 lb, to lift 75 lb (which is the weight of Ryan) they need:

$\frac{75lb*1L}{0.0022lb}=34,090.90L$

6. Then, to calculate the aproximated number of balloons they need to make him float (which can call $n$ ), you must divide the liters of helium needed to lift the weight of Ryan by the volume of a balloon, then the result is:
