Answer:

There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the variables:

L = number of ladies in the conference

G = number of gentlemen in the conference

We know 340 people participated in the conference, thus:

L + G = 340 [1]

We are also given the ratio of ladies and gentleman as 3:2, thus:

L/G = 3/2

Cross-multiplying:

2L = 3G [2]

From [1]:

L = 340 - G

Substituting in [2]:

2(340 - G) = 3G

Operating:

680 - 2G = 3G

5G = 680

G = 680/5 = 136

G = 136

L = 340 - 136 = 204

L = 204

There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference

Answer:

24 candies originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.

x=0

because you must

determine the undefined range

write all numerators above the common denomonator

multiply the parenthesis

collect the alike terms

remove parenthesis

eliminate the opposites collect the like terms

set the numerator equal to 0

divide both sides by 6

check if thesolution is the defined range

if so then you would find your answer X=0

A sphere is inscribed in a cube with a volume of 64 cubic inches. What is the volume of the sphere? Round your answer to the nea

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

the volume of the sphere is

$33.51 in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, sphere and cube.

Given data

Volume of cube v = 64 cubic inches

since we are dealing with a cube the height and the radius of the sphere is same as the sides of the cube,

we know that volume of cube is expressed as

$v= l*b*h$

$v=l^{3}$

$64= l^{3}$

$l= \sqrt[3]{64}$

$l= 4 in$

also diameter d=length l

Diameter d= $4in$

Radius r = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{4}{2}$ = ${2 in}$

Height h= $4in$

we know that the volume of a sphere is given by

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

substituting into the formula we have

$v= \frac{4}{3} \ *3.142*2^{3} \\v=\frac{4*3.142*8}3} \\v= \frac{100.54}{3} \\v= 33.52in^{3}$
