Nine.
48 divided by 6 is 8, which means that each bead weighs 8 grams.
72 divided by 8 is nine.

Hey there!

To solve for the amount of beads that weigh 72 grams, you can set up this proportion where x represents the number of beads weighing 72 grams:
$\frac{6}{48}$ = $\frac{x}{72}$

Now, cross multiply and simplify:
6*72=48*x
432=48x

Finally, solve for x:
432=48x
x=9

Therefore, 9 beads will weigh 72 grams.

Hope this helps and I hope you have a marvelous day! :)

What are the measure of angles 1 and 2

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

50° and 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 is a chord- chord angles and is calculated as

∠1 = 0.5( arc RQ + arc ST) = 0.5(53 + 47)° = 50°

∠1 and ∠2 form a straight angle and are supplementary, hence

∠2 = 180° - 50° = 130°

Three spherical balls with radius r are contained in a rectangular box. two of the balls are each touching 5 sides of the rectan

olganol [36]

Answer:

The volume of the space between the balls and the rectangular box is $4r^{3}(6 - \pi)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment below shows the description of the rectangular bow and the three spherical balls.

From the description,

Two of the balls are each touching 5 sides of the rectangular box, say the 5 sides touched by one of the balls are sides 1,2,3,4, and 5; then the other ball will touch sides 2,3,4,5, and 6).
The middle ball also touches four sides of the rectangular box, These four sides touched by the middle ball will be sides 2,3,4, and 5.

This means the balls are tightly fitted into the rectangular box.

Each of the balls has a radius r

Hence, The volume of one of the balls is given by the volume of a sphere

$Volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3} \\$
