The volume of the cone is 2880 m3.
The scale factor is 1/4.
The volume of the cone has the formula (1/3)π r² h.
A scale factor of 1/4 will reduce the dimensions by 1/4 which will result to a total volume reduction of (1/4)³ = 1/64
The new volume will be 45 m3
The mass of the rock in kg is 90,000 kg
We want to know the time, <em>t</em>, it takes the ball to reach a height (<em>y</em>) of 0.

We can factor out the GCF first. The largest number that will divide evenly into 16 and 24 is 8. Also, both terms have a <em>t</em>, so we can factor that out as well:

(-16/8 = -2 and 24/8 = 3)
Using the zero product property, we know that either 8t=0 or -2t+3=0. Solving the first equation, we would divide both sides by 8:
8t/8=0/8
t=0
This is at 0 seconds, before the ball is in the air at all.
Solving the second equation, we start by subtracting 3 from both sides:
-2t+3-3=0-3
-2t=-3
Now we divide both sides by -2
-2t/-2=-3/-2
t=1.5
After 1.5 seconds, the ball will hit the ground again.
Answer:
x + y = 745
23.50x + 58.75y = 29,668.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 745 copies were sold and x represents the number of copies of the home edition sold and y represents the number of copies of the business edition sold:
x + y = 745
Since the home edition costs $23.50, and the business edition costs $58.75:
The money earned from home edition is = 23.50x
The money earned from business edition is = 58.75y
Since the company earned $29,668.75:
23.50x + 58.75y = 29,668.75
