Answer:

  the balls are larger, or don't pack as tightly

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume by either measure will depend on a couple of factors:

  • the volume of the unit used (ball or cube)
  • the way the units can be packed

In a rectangular space, such as a box, it may be easier to pack cubes than balls. So, more cubes of the same volume would fit simply because they can be packed closer together.

We aren't told the volume of either the cube or the ball, and we're not told the extent to which the packing is optimized.

Fewer balls may fit because their packing is not as well optimized as that of the cubes, or because each has a larger volume than the cube being used.

Which biconditional is not a good definition?

<span>The <u>correct answers</u> are:

A ray is a bisector of an angle if and only if it splits the angle into two angles; and
A) I can afford to buy a ticket.

Explanation<span>:

For the first question, the first three answers are very specific and true:

A whole number is odd if it is not divisible by 2, and a number is not divisible by 2 if it is odd;
an angle is straight if its measure is 180 degrees, and the measure of an angle is 180 degrees if it is a straight angle;
a whole number is even if it is divisible by 2, and a number is divisible by 2 if it is even.

However, with the fourth choice, we are missing a key word in the definition. A ray is a bisector of an angle if and only if it splits the angle into two <u>CONGRUENT</u> angles. It is not just a ray that cuts an angle into two pieces, the pieces must be equal.

For the second question, the Law of Detachment says if our conditional "if p, then q" is true and p is true, then q must also be true.

For this question, "I can go to the concert if I can afford to buy a ticket" is true as well as "I can go to the concert." This means "I can afford to buy a ticket" must be true as well.</span></span>
