She had $3000. She spend 40% of the money in smart TV and 15% of the remainder on Game Set. (a) What % of the money had she left

Dovator [93]

Answer: She had left 54% of the money which is $1620.

Step-by-step explanation:

40% of $3000 = $1200

15% of $1200 = $180

$3000 - ($1200 + $180)

$3000 - $1380 = $1620

$1620 is the money she had left.

$1620 is 54% of $3000

She had 54% left of the money.

A pharmaticeutical company is making a new medicine capsule shaped like a cylinder with a half sphere at each end. The

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

339.12 cubic millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The volume of the figure is equal to the volume of the two hemispheres (one sphere) plus the volume of the cylinder

step 1

Find the volume of the cylinder

The volume is given by

$V=Bh$

where

B is the area of the base of cylinder

h is the height of cylinder

we have

$B=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$h=8\ mm$

$r=6/2=3\ mm$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$B=(3.14)(3)^{2}$

$B=28.26\ mm^2$

substitute

$V=(28.26)(8)=226.08\ mm^3$

step 2

Find the volume of the sphere

The volume is given by

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

we have

$r=6/2=3\ mm$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}(3.14)(3)^{3}=113.04\ mm^3$

step 3

Adds the volumes

$226.08+113.04=339.12\ mm^3$
