Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Since you can't divide a fraction by another fraction, you start by flipping the second fraction (-1/6 becomes -6/1) and changing the division sign to multiplication.</em>

-2/3 x -6/1

<em>Multiply across, numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator.</em> <em>Also, when multiplying or dividing negative numbers, two negatives make a positive (i.e. -2 x -6 = +12)</em>

-2/3 x -6/1 = 12/3

12/3 = 4

You wish to package a spherical globe inside a cubical box . The diameter of the globe is 30 centimeters . How much empty space

Aneli [31]

Answer:

<h2>The empty inside the box is 12,870 cubic centimeters, approximately.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The diameter of the globe (sphere) is 30 centimeters,
The box must has dimensions 30x30.

We need to find each volume to subtract them.

$V_{box}=(30cm)^{3}= 27,000 \ cm^{3}$

$V_{sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \pi (15cm)^{3} \approx 14,130 \cm^{3}$

The difference betweem the box and the sphere is

$\Delta V=27,000 - 14,130 = 12,870 \ cm^{3}$

Therefore, the empty inside the box is 12,870 cubic centimeters, approximately.

What do you say when you get off a boat

Vanyuwa [196]

Usually people love to travel via boat including me :). At some point you need to get off from boat.

Question is asking about what should we say when we get off from boat. There can be lots of answers for this question because there is no fixed rule to leave the boat.

You may say good bye or wish the people who are still on the boat.

In fact you are free to say anything in the world. :)
