The volumes of two cylindrical cans of the same shape vary directly as the cubes of their radii. If a can with a six-inch radius

holds 1½ pints, how many gallons will a similar can with a 24-inch radius hold?

Answer:

The second similar can with a radius of 24-inch radius will hold 12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volumes of the cylindrical can ∝ (The radius of the cans)³

The volume of first can, V₁ = 1¹/₂ pints

The radius of the first can, r₁ = 6-inch

The radius of the second can, r₂ = 24-inch

Therefore, we have;

V ∝ r³

V = k × r³

∴ 1¹/₂ pints ∝ (6 in.)³

1¹/₂ pints = 43.3125 in³

∴ 43.3125 in³ = k × 216 in.³

The constant of proportionality, k = 43.3125/216 = 0.2005208333

Therefore, we have for the second can, we have;

V₂ = k × r₂³ = 43.3125/216 × (24 in.)³ = 2772 in.³

The volume of the second can = 2772 in.³

1 in.³ = 0.004329 gallons

∴ 2772 in.³ = 2772 × 0.004329 gallons = 12 gallons

Therefore, the volume the second similar can with a 24-inch radius will hold = 12 gallons.

The amount of bacteria in a fish tank was 830. After 5 hours, the amount of bacteria is 3202.
alina1380 [7]

Answer: 37.92

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 3202 / 5 = 640.4.

We subtract that by 830 to get (830 - 640.4  =) 189.6. Then we do / by five again to get 37.92. That is the answer.
