Answer:

10.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the ratios by x

3x : 8x: 7x

Add the sides together

3x+8x+7x to get the perimeter

18x = 63

Divide each side by 18

18x/18 = 63/18

x =3.5

The shorter side is 3x

3*3.5=10.5 cm

The area of a square slice of cheese is 25 square inches. The perimeter of the slice of cheese is

maxonik [38]

Answer:

As Per Provided Information

Area of given square slice of cheese is 25 square inches .

We have been asked to determine the perimeter of the slice of cheese .

First we will find the side of square slice of cheese .

Let us assume the side of square slice of cheese be s .

Now Let's Solve

$\boxed{\bf \:Area_{(Square)} = {Side}^{2}}$

Substituting the value and we obtain

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 25 = {s}^{2} \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow \: \sqrt{25} = s \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow \: s \: = 5 \: inch$

So, the side of square slice cheese is 5 inch

Now let's calculate the Perimeter of cheese

$\boxed{\bf \: Perimeter_{(Square)} = 4 \times side}$

Substituting the value we obtain

$\longrightarrow \sf \: Perimeter_{(Square)} = 4 \times 5 \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow \sf \: Perimeter_{(Square)} =20 \: inches$

Therefore,

Perimeter of square slice of cheese is 20 inches .

Find the volume of the sphere. Give the answer in terms of pi and rounded to the nearest cubic foot.

Inessa05 [86]

Hi there!

The formula for the volume of a sphere is V = 4/3(pi)(r^3). Using this formula, we can plug in what we know and solve.

WORK:
V = 4/3(pi)(10^3)
V = 4/3(1000pi)
V = 4000pi/3 or 1333.3 pi
V also = 4188.8

Hope this helps!! :)
