Mathematics

Helen [10]3 years ago

Answer

The steel ball will be caught up in between the mercury and water medium.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Mercury with a density of 13546 kg/m^3
  • water with a density of 1000 kg/m^3
  • Steel with a density of 8050 kg/m^3

From the factual density of both substances given above ,it shows that mercury is more heavier than water. In that case mercury will be at the lower layer when mixed with water.

The steel ball will be caught in between both mixtures as the density of  steel is 8050 kg/m^3.Which  is more than Water but less than Mercury.

AABC is a right triangle. If AC = 15 and BC = 17, find AB.
Schach [20]

Answer:

AC=15

BC=17

AB=?

According to Pythagore's Theorem: AB² + AC² = BC².

AB² = BC² - AC²

= (17)² - (15)²

= 289 - 225

AB² = 64

AB = √(64)

= 8.

So AB = 8.

Randy rented a rectangular storage shed with the volume of 357 ft does it sheds height is 8 and 1/2 ft and the width of is 6 ft
ollegr [7]

Answer:

7 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of shed, V = 357 feet³

Height of shed, H= 8 1/2 fts

Width of shed, W = 6 ft

Using the relation :

Volume = Length * width * height

357 = L * 6 ft * 17/2 feets

357 feets³ = L * 51 feets²

L = 357 feets³ / 51 feets²

Length, L = 7 feets

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Outlier An extreme value in a set of data which is much higher or lower than the other numbers. ... Outliers affect the mean value of the data but have little effect on the median or mode of a given set of data. Your question asks how number 42 would affect the mean, that depends on two things, is the 42 higher or lower than the mean before 42 is added to the data? If the 42 is higher, the mean would increase, if the 42 is lower, the mean would decrease. Hope that helps.
