Erik and Nita are playing a game with numbers. In the game, they each think of a random number from zero to 20. If the differenc

e between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins. If the difference between their two numbers is greater than 10, then Nita wins. Use what you know about inequalities and absolute values to better understand the game.

Let X is the random number Erik thinks of, and Y is the random number Nita thinks of.
Both X and Y are in the range from 0 to 20.
<span>X<=20
Y<=20
If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins.
The difference between the two numbers can be written X-Y, or Y-X depending on which number (X or Y) is greater. But we do not know that. In order not to get negative value, we calculate absolute value of X-Y,  written |X-Y| which will give positive value whether X is greater than Y or not.
If |X-Y|<10 Erik wins.
</span><span>If the difference between their two numbers is greater than 10, then Nita wins. 
</span><span>If |X-Y|>10 Nita Wins

What are the surface area and volume of a spherical barrel cactus with a radius of 5 inches?
tino4ka555 [31]

\bf \textit{surface area of a sphere}\\\\ SA=4\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r = 5 \end{cases}\implies SA=4\pi (5)^2 \\\\\\ SA=100\pi\implies SA\approx 314.16 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\ V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}\qquad \qquad V=\cfrac{4\pi (5)^3}{3}\implies V=\cfrac{500\pi }{3}\implies V\approx 523.60

The blueprint for a new swimming pool uses the scale 3/4
beks73 [17]

Answer:

3 in wide by 4.5 in long.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=0.75

I divided the given dimensions by two, so I could multiply .75 by the sets of twos instead of dividing 3/4 by two and multiplying that by 12 and 8.

.74 x 4 = 3

.75 x 6 = 4.5
