9514 1404 393

Answer:

  25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 15 feet and 20 feet can be found using the Pythagorean theorem:

  h^2 = 20^2 +15^2

  h^2 = 400 +225 = 625

  h = √625 = 25

The distance from the shadow tip to the flag pole tip is 25 feet.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Your best answer is C.

Round up 19 bags they ordered to 20, then multiply by 12 to get 240 apples they ordered.

Round down the 42 to 40. 40 x 8 = 320 apples sold.

200 to start + 240 ordered = 440 apples
440-320 = 120

What is the volume of the sphere shown below with a radius of 9
Sati [7]

Answer:

972π  or 3052.08 if π=3.14(remember to label the answer with your units)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is \frac{4}{3}\\πr^{3}. So, just plug the radius into the formula. r^{3}<em> </em>in this case is 9^{3} which is 729. For, \frac{4}{3}×729, the 3 and 729 cancel out to create 4×243 which is 972. Just add π to this and you get 972π. If π is 3.14 just multiple 972 and 3.14 to get 3052.08.
