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

When testing a new​ treatment, what is the difference between statistical significance and practical​ significance? Can a treatm
Arada [10]

Answer:

Statistical significance relates to whether an effect exists.

Practical significance refers to the magnitude of the effect.

And you can have statistical significance but not practical.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analize it with an example.

Suppose that your new treatment involves hair recovery.

You divide the population of the test in two different groups.

And you apply the treatment to only one of them.

You can see that the treatment works and there is a 3% improvment.

You have statistical significance. The treatment worked.

Now, if the test was expensive, the 3% improvement might not be practical.

The length of a rectangle with area 38 in2 depends on its width. Write the formula that describes the length of the rectangle as
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

L = 38/W

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is computed by multiplying length by width. For length L and width W in inches, your rectangle has area ...

A = LW

38 = LW

Then the length can be found by dividing the equation by W:

L = 38/W
