Answer:

Ratio = 1 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total marbles = 10

Given 1/5 is red, that is 1/5 of the total marbles are red

$\frac{1}{5} \ of \ 10 = \frac{1}{5} \times 10 = 2$

Therefore , 10 - 2 = 8 marbles are blue.

Ratio of red marbles to blue marbles

$\frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4} = 1 : 4$

At tire depot , a pair of new tires sells for $216. The managers special advertises the same tires at a rate of $380 for 4 tires

Fittoniya [83]

A pair of tires is $216, so at that rate 4 tires would be $432. The managers special is $380 so $432-$380=$52 savings for 4. $52\4=$13 savings per tire.

If a cone and sphere have the same radius and the same height, what is the relationship among the volumes of the two shapes?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

the volume of the sphere will be 4 times the volume of the cone;

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The question is on volume comparison</u>

Volume of a sphere=4/3 $\pi$ ×r³

Volume of a cone= $\pi$ /3×r²h

where r is the radius and h is the height

<u>Apply the condition</u>

If r=h=1 unit

Then volume of sphere will be= 4/3 × $\pi$ ×1³ = 4/3 $\pi$

And volume of the cone will be= $\pi$ /3 ×1²×1 = $\pi$ /3

We can see the volume of the sphere will be 4 times the volume of the cone;

4/3 $\pi$ = 4× $\pi$ /3
