Jake volunteers to help out his younger brother's basketball team in his free time. One of his tasks is to ensure that all the b

asketballs have enough air in them. Given that a proper inflated basketball measures 8.8 inches across, what is the total volume of air inside six of Jake's basketballs? Assume that the wall of each ball is infinitely thin.

Answer:

The volume is 2140.98 inches³

Step-by-step explanation

The basketballs are spherical, and it is known that the volume of a sphere is

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

Where V is the volume of the ball and r is its radius


They tell us that the ball measures 8.8 inches wide. This means that its diameter is 8.8 inches.

It is known that the radius of a sphere is equal to half its diameter.

Therefore, the radius r of the ball is:

r = \frac{8.8}{2}

r = 4.4 inches.

Then, they tell us to consider that the walls of the ball are infinitely thin, which means that we should not take into account their thickness in the calculation of the volume.

We already have all the data we need, now we proceed to calculate the volume.

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi(4.4)^{3}\\V = 356.83 inches^{3}

Where V is the volume of only one of the balls

The volume of the six balls is V = 6 * 356.83 = 2140.98 inches³

Finally the volume is 2140.98 inches³

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4/3 * pi * (4.4)^3 * 6 = 8 * (4.4)^3 * pi = 681.472 * pi

The answer is : A) 681.47 * pi cubic inches

Use matrices to write the equation of the function in the form y = mx + b that contains the points
Fofino [41]

The line has a slope of -6 and a y intercept of 7.

The linear equation is given by:

y = mx + b;

where m is the slope of the line, b is the y intercept, y, x are variables.

The equation of the line passing through the points (6.-29) and (-4,31) is:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\\\y-(-29)=\frac{31-(-29)}{-4-6}(x-6)\\\\y+29=-6(x-6)\\\\y=-6x+7

Hence the line has a slope of -6 and a y intercept of 7.

What's the solution of the following linear system?<br><br> y = 4x + 1<br><br> y = 4x
allochka39001 [22]
The solution of a system of equations is the point at which the two lines intersect. Since y is already isolated, we can set the equations equal to each other by doing:
4x=4x+1
Subtract 4x from both sides
0=1
Since 0 cannot equal 1 in any case, the lines never intersect. There is no solution to the problem.
