Answer:  The required sprinter's unit rate is 31 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a sprinter can run 279 feet in 9 seconds.

We are to find the sprinter's unit rate of feet per second.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the given problem.

According to the given information, we have

In 9 second, distance run by the sprinter = 279 feet.

Therefore, in 1 second, the distance run by sprinter will be

\dfrac{279}{9}=31~\textup{feet per second}.

Thus, the required sprinter's unit rate is 31 feet per second.

279ft/9sec = xft/1sec
Cross multiply to get
9x = 279 divide by 9
x = 31
31 feet per second

The diameter of a sphere is measured to be 4.17 in.
gtnhenbr [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the radius of the sphere we must convert the inches to centimeters

Using the conversation

1 inch = 2.54 cm

If 1 inch = 2.54 cm

4.17 inch = 2.54 × 4.17 = 10.59 cm

<h2>a).</h2>

We can find the radius using the formula

radius =  \frac{diameter}{2}

From the question

diameter = 10.59 cm

So we have

radius =  \frac{10.59}{2}

<h3>radius = 5.30 cm</h3>

<h2>b).</h2>

Surface area of a sphere= 4πr²

where

r is the radius

Surface area = 4(5.30)²π

= 112.36π

= 352.989

We have the answer as

<h3>Surface area = 353 cm²</h3>

<h2>c).</h2>

Volume of a sphere is given by

\frac{4}{3} \pi  {r}^{3}

r = 5.30

The volume of the sphere is

\frac{4}{3} ( {5.30})^{3} \pi

= 623.61451

We have the answer as

<h2>Volume = 623.6 cm³</h2>

Hope this helps you

In science class, Priscilla heats water and measures the temperature of the water every 2 minutes\or data are shown in the table
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

  37.5 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature appears to be increasing linearly at the rate of 5 °C in 2 minutes, or 2.5 °C per minute.

1 minute after 4 minutes, when the temperature is 35 °C, we expect it to be 2.5 °C higher, or 37.5 °C.
