tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

72 percent of the total houses are small

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to know the total apartments from the ratio: This is got by adding 18 + 7 = 25

The ratio of small apartments to regular ones is 18:7

To get the percentage that is small, we have to express the number of small houses when compared to the total available apartments. (<em>Note: not the regular ones) </em>as a percentage.

This will be (18/25) X 100 = 72%

Therefore, 72 percent of the total houses are small

What is the volume of a right circular cone if the circumference of the base is 125.6 ft and the height is 75 ft.? Use π=3.14 an

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The volume of a right circular cone is $31400\ \text{feet}^3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the base of a right circular cone is 125.6 ft.

Height of cone is 75 ft.

Circumference of base is :

$C=2\pi r$ , r is radius

$r=\dfrac{C}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{125.6}{2\times 3.14}\\\\r=20\ ft$

The volume of a cone is given by :

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times (20)^2\times 75\\\\V=31400\ \text{feet}^3$

So, the volume of a right circular cone is $31400\ \text{feet}^3$ .
