Answer:

When someone is being put on trial for a crime they have the right to remain silent, essentially meaning if they're asking a question that could incriminate or contradict them, they have the right to plead the fifth so that they don't have to answer the question.

Pre Algebra

JulijaS [17]

Question:

Use the formulas below to find the surface area and volume of the cube, sphere, and cylinder “ice cubes”.

“Ice cube” measurements:

• Cube: s = 3 cm

• Sphere: r = 1 cm

• Cylinder: r = 2 cm and h= 3 cm

Note: After you find the surface area and volume of each shape, divide the surface area by the volume to find the surface area to volume ratio expressed as a single number. This should go in the last column.

Answer:

Cube:

Surface area = $6s^2$

Surface area = 6 (3)(3)

Surface area = $54 cm^2$

Volume = $s^3$

Volume = $(3)^3$

Volume = $27 cm^3$

Surface Area to Volume Ratio = $\frac{54}{27}$ = $\frac{2}{1}$ = 2:1

Sphere:

Surface area = $4\pi r^2$

Surface area = $4 \pi (1)(1)$

Surface area = $12.566cm^2$

Surface area = $13 cm^2$ (rounding off )

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi (1)^3$

Volume = $4.188 cm^3$

Volume = $4 cm^3$ (rounding off )

Surface Area to Volume Ratio = $\frac{13}{4}$ = 13 : 1

Cylinder:

Surface Area $= 2\pi r^2 + 2 \pi rh$

Surface Area = $2\pi (2)^2 + 2 \pi (2)(3)$

Surface Area = $2\pi (4) + 2 \pi (6)$

Surface Area = $8 \pi + 12 \pi$

Surface Area = $20 \pi$

Surface Area = $62.83 cm^2$

Surface area = 63 $cm^2$ (rounding off )

Volume = $\pi r^2 h$

Volume = $\pi (2)^2 (3)$

Volume = $\pi (4) (3)$

Volume = $12 \pi$

Volume = 37 .699

Volume = 38 $cm^3$

Surface Area to Volume Ratio = $\frac{63}{38}$ = 68 : 38

When Mrs Gault, the mother of Gerald came to the detention home to see her son, she was informed of the issue for the first time and was also told of the hearing that would be coming up.

The probation officers agreed and filed a case that listed the charge as lewd phone call. The judge committed Gault to juvenile detention until he gets to the age of 21. Writ of habeas corpus was filed by the parents of Gerald but the courts in Arizona dismissed it. Supreme court ruling held that juveniles accused of delinquent acts have many of the same rights afforded to adults under the 6th and 14th amendments .
