Answer:

8 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is 3 zippers for every 2 houses , you can put that into ratio form, for example :

3 : 2

Now that there is 12 ZIPPERS , we want to figure out how many houses , for example:

12: ?

First what you want to do is figure out how we ended out with the number , so we will take 3 zippers we started with and the 12 zippers we have now. We are going to divide the 3 from 12 leaving us with 4 as our quotient .

12÷3=4

Now that we have 4 groups of houses we can multiply 4 x 2 equaling us with , yes you guessed it  8 .

In ratio form the answer is this :

3 : 2 = 12 : 8

I hope you get a 100%!!!

A toy baseball bat comes with 3 plastic balls. The balls are in a box that is a rectangular solid. The box is just big enough to
vodomira [7]

Answer:

31.4 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The box is just big enough to hold the 3 balls, so it must have a length 6 times the radius of each ball, a width 2 times the radius, and a height 2 times the radius.

The volume of the box is:

V = (6r)(2r)(2r)

V = 24r³

The volume of the 3 balls is:

V = 3 (4/3 π r³)

V = 4πr³

So the volume of the air is:

V = 24r³ − 4πr³

V = (24 − 4π) r³

Since r = 1.4 inches:

V = (24 − 4π) (1.4 in)³

V ≈ 31.4 in³
