Emily wants to know the volume of a beach ball. She deduces that the beach ball has diameter of 12 inches, and then uses the fol

lowing formula to find the volume: (3.14) (12) V = (3.14) (1728) (5425.92) V=7234.56 cubic inches Emily's answer is incorrect. What did she do wrong? She used the formula for a cylinder instead of the formula for a sphere She used the formula for a sphere instead of the formula for a cone. Multiplying (314)(1728) does not equal 5425.92. She used the beach ball's diameter when she should have used the radius​

Answer:

D. She used the beach's ball's diameter when she should have used the radius

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the beach ball, using the volume of a sphere is the right formula to use, which is ⁴/3πr³.

The formula she used is correct.

Since the diameter of the ball is assumed to be 12 inches, what is needed to find the volume is the radius.

Radius (r) = ½(diameter) = ½(12) = 6 in.

This is where Emily made a mistake.

She used the diameter of the beach ball instead of its radius (r) which is needed in the equation.

She should have gotten,

V = ⁴/3(3.14)(6)² = 904.32 cubic inches

4 2/3 divided by 1/2
ycow [4]

Answer:

9 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make 4 2/3 into a improper fraction

4 2/3= 14/3

2. Keep, change, flip

14/3 x 2/1

3. Multiply

14/3 x 2/1= 28/3

4. Simplify

28/3= 9 1/3

(btw keep, change, flip basically means to keep the first fraction the way it is, change the division sign to a multiplication sign, then flip the second fraction so the original denominator is the new numerator, and vise versa.)

Total no of people =52

The venn diagram attached gives a clear picture

assuming x to be owners of both dog and cat.  Then 2x is for both goldfish and cats.

Totalling all mutually exclusive we get

64-3x=52

x=4

No of owners who own  both cat and dog =4
