The senior class want to play a practical joke on the principal, who was a former college basketball star. They want to fill his

steposvetlana [31]

The number of basketball that will fill up the entire office is <u>approximately 16,615.</u>

<em><u>Recall:</u></em>

Volume of a spherical shape = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

Volume of a rectangular prism = $l \times w \times h$

<em><u>Given:</u></em>

Diameter of basketball = 9.5 in.

Radius of the ball = 1/2 of 9.5 = 4.75 in.

Radius of the ball in ft = 0.4 ft (12 inches = 1 ft)

Dimension of the office (rectangular prism) = 20 ft by 18 ft by 12 ft

First, find the volume of the basketball:

Volume of ball = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 4.75^3\\$

Volume of basketball = $448.92 $ in^3$

Convert to $ft^3$

$1728 $ in.^3 = 1 $ ft^3$

<em>Therefore,</em>

Volume of basketball = $\frac{448.92}{1728} = 0.26 $ ft^3$

Find the volume of the office (rectangular prism):

Volume of the office = $20 \times 18 \times 12 = 4,320 $ ft^3$

Number of basket ball that will fill the office = Volume of office / volume of basketball

<em>Thus:</em>

Number of basket ball that will fill the office = $\frac{4,320}{0.26} = 16,615$

Therefore, it will take approximately <u>16,615 balls</u><u> to fill up the entire office</u>.

Find all ratios that are equivalent to 4 : 6 and have a first term that is less than 40.

kherson [118]

Answer:

2: 3, 4: 6, 6: 9, 8: 12 , 10: 15, 12: 18, 14: 21, 16: 24, 18: 27, 20: 30, 22: 33, 24:36, 26: 39, 28: 42, 30: 45, 32: 48, 34: 51, 36: 54, 38: 57

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 4: 6 can be simplified to 2:3 by dividing by 2 to each side of the ratio. After simplified to 2:3, you add the ration to itself to get the rest of the terms.

If 4 electricians can complete a job in 8 hours how long will it take 3 electricians to complete the same job

levacccp [35]

We know that

if <span>4 electricians can complete a job in 8 hours
then
</span>100% of a job -------> 8 hours
x------------------> 1 hour
x=100/8----> x=12.5%

divide by 4 electricians
12.5%/4-----> 3.125%
that means each electrician can complete 3.125% of a job in 1 hour

therefore
3 electricians-----> 3*3.125%----> 9.375% in 1 hour
so
9.375%-----------> 1 hour
100%--------------> x
x=100/9.375----> x=10.67 hours

the answer is
10.67 hours
