Answer:

The volume of foam needed to fill the box is approximately 2926.1 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of foaming that is needed to fill the rest of the box we first need to calculate the volume of the box and the volume of the ball. Since the box is cubic it's volume is given by the formula below, while the formula for the basketball, a sphere, is also shown.

Vcube = a³

Vsphere = (4*pi*r³)/3

Where a is the side of the box and r is the radius of the box. The radius is half of the diameter. Applying the data from the problem to the expressions, we have:

Vcube = 15³ = 3375 cubic inches

Vsphere = (4*pi*(9.5/2)³)/3 = 448.921

The volume of foam there is needed to complete the box is the subtraction between the two volumes above:

Vfoam = Vcube - Vsphere = 3375 - 448.921 = 2926.079 cubic inches

The volume of foam needed to fill the box is approximately 2926.1 cubic inches.

Mukat has five times as many book as usha.If mukat gave 16 books to usha,they each would have the same number.how many books did
vladimir1956 [14]

Mukat gets 40, Usha gets 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Mukat = 5 × Usha

After Mukat gives Usha 16 books ,Usha gets (16 + initial number of books) and Mukat gets (5 × Usha - 16)

Then Mukat = final number of books for Usha

5 × Usha - 16 = Usha + 16

(5 × Usha ) - Usha = 16+16

4 × Usha = 32

Usha = 8 i.e her number of books.

Mukat = 5×8=40.
