The volume of a sphere is (4/3) (pi) (radius cubed).
The volume of one sphere divided by the volume of another one is
(4/3) (pi) (radius-A)³ / (4/3) (pi) (radius-B)³
Divide top and bottom by (4/3) (pi) and you have (radius-A)³ / (radius-B)³
and that's exactly the same as
( radius-A / radius-B ) cubed.
I went through all of that to show you that the ratio of the volumes of two spheres
is the cube of the ratio of their radii.
Earth radius = 6,371 km
Pluto radius = 1,161 km
Ratio of their radii = (6,371 km) / (1,161 km)
Ratio of their volumes = ( 6,371 / 1,161 ) cubed = about <u>165.2</u>
Note:
I don't like the language of the question where it asks "How many spheres...".
This seems to be asking how many solid cue balls the size of Pluto could be
packed into a shell the size of the Earth, and that's not a simple solution.
The solution I have here is simply the ratio of volumes ... how many Plutos
can fit into a hollow Earth if the Plutos are melted and poured into the shell.
That's a different question, and a lot easier than dealing with solid cue balls.
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-10) = 30- 15x
5x - 50= 30 - 15x
+15x +15x
20x - 50 = 30
+50 +50
20x = 80
/20 /20
x = 4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if 124.50 represents 100%
how much x represents 6% ?
cross multiply
x= 124.50*6/100= 7.47
$7.47 > $5.95 so it will pay $7.47 in shiping
