Answer:

$600.00

Step-by-step explanation:

15% as a decimal is 0.15

multiply 0.15 by 1000 to get the 15% of their sales

0.15×1000=150

add 150 to their weekly pay, 450

450+150=600

A sphere and a cylinder have the same radius and height. The volume of the cylinder is 21m. what is the volume of the sphere.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The volume of the sphere is 14m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of the cylinder = $21m^3$

Required

Volume of the sphere

Given that the volume of the cylinder is 21, the first step is to solve for the radius of the cylinder;

<em>Using the volume formula of a cylinder</em>

The formula goes thus

$V = \pi r^2h$

Substitute 21 for V; this gives

$21 = \pi r^2h$

Divide both sides by h

$\frac{21}{h} = \frac{\pi r^2h}{h}$

$\frac{21}{h} = \pi r^2$

The next step is to solve for the volume of the sphere using the following formula;

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Divide both sides by r

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{4}{3r}\pi r^3$

Expand Expression

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^2$

Substitute $\frac{21}{h} = \pi r^2$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{21}{h}$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{84}{3h}$

$\frac{V}{r} = \frac{28}{h}$

Multiply both sided by r

$r * \frac{V}{r} = \frac{28}{h} * r$

$V = \frac{28r}{h}$ ------ equation 1

From the question, we were given that the height of the cylinder and the sphere have equal value;

This implies that the height of the cylinder equals the diameter of the sphere. In other words

$h = D$ , where D represents diameter of the sphere

Recall that $D = 2r$

So, $h = D = 2r$

$h = 2r$

Substitute 2r for h in equation 1

$V = \frac{28r}{2r}$

$V = \frac{28}{2}$

$V = 14$

Hence, the volume of the sphere is 14m³

What is the difference between the mean and the median of the following distribution?

natulia [17]

The definition of mean, is to add up all the numbers and divide it by how many numbers there are. So, in this case the mean would be 1+1+1+2+2+2+2+3+3+4+4+4+4+5+5+6+7+7+8+8+9 = 86. You would then take 86 and divide that by 21, and you would get 4.0
The definition of median states to find the middle of the numbers. So the median would be 4.
So you would just take 4 - 4 = 0.

0 would be correct.
