Answer:

4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To know this, let's write down the formulas for the volume of cylinder and sphere.

Vs = 4/3πr³ (1)

Vc = π r² h (2)

Now, we do have a little problem here and its the fact that the sphere do not have a height like the cylinder do. But in this case so if you want to have an idea of the fraction of the volume, we will assume that the cylinder has the same height as its radius. Assuming this we have the following:

Vs / Vc = 4πr³ / 3πr²h

Vs/Vc = 4πr³ / 3πr³

From here, we can cancel out the values of π and r³:

Vs/Vc = 4/3

Thus we can conclude that the volume of the sphere is 4/3 the volume of a cylinder.

Hope this helps

Find the value of x.<br> Right triangle: Hypotenuse is 11, base is x, angle is 22 degrees.

kirill [66]

We know that the trigonometric identity that uses the adjacent side and the hypotenuse is cosine. We can set this up as:
$cos(22) = \frac{x}{11}$

We need to solve for x, so let's isolate it:
$x = 11cos(22) = 10.2$

So, x = 10.2 units

An equation in the form ax2+bx+c=0 is solved by the quadratic formula. The solution to the equation is shown below.x=−7±√ "572"

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

B: a = 1, b= 7, c = -2

Explanation:

$\sf Quadratic \ Equation : \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$

Knowing This:

<u>solve for b</u>

-b = -7

b = 7

<u>solve for a</u>:

2a = 2

a = 1

<u>solve c</u>:

b² - 4ac = 57

7² - 4(1)(c) = 57

-4c = 57 - 49

-4c = 8

c = 8/-4 = -2
