Answer:

The radius of the sphere is approximately 62.71 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to the definition of a sphere

The given parameters are;

The distance between the sharp parallel blades through which the sphere is rolled = 77 centimeters

The radii of the circular faces left by cutting the sphere with the blade = 39 cm and 60 cm

From the triangles formed by the cross-section of the sphere, we have;

AB ║ DE Given

∠A ≅ ∠E, ∠D ≅ ∠B Alternate angles

∠C ≅ ∠C by reflective property

∴ ΔABC ~ ΔDCE by Angle-Angle similarity theorem

CF/CG = AB/DE = 78/120 = 13/20

CF = CG × 13/20

CF + CG = 77

∴ CG × 13/20 + CG = 77

33·CG/20 = 77

∴ CG = 140/3

CF = 13/20 × CG = 13/20 × 140/3 = 91/3

CF = 91/3

The diameter of the sphere AE = AC + EC

By Pythagoras's theorem

AC = √(FA² + CF²) = √(39² + (91/3)²) = 13·√(130)/3

EC = √(CG² + GD²) = √((140/3)² + 60²) = 20·√(130)/3

∴ AE = AC + EC = 13·√(130)/3 + 20·√(130)/3 = 11·√(130)

The diameter, 'D', of the sphere, AE = 11·√(130)

The radius of the sphere = D/2 = 11·√(130)/2 ≈ 62.71 cm

Airida [17]

<span>Approximately 25. Of the 5 grades of sand used in the United states, medium sand has particles ranging from 0.25 mm to 0.5 mm. For convenience, I'll use 0.5mm as the diameter of a grain of sand. Human cells range from a volume of 30 cubic micrometers (human sperm cell) up to 4 million micrometers (human egg cell). For the average human cell, I'll use an osteoblast with a volume of 4000 cubic micrometers or a diameter of 2x10^-5 meters. Now just take the diameter of a grain of sand and divide by the diameter of a human cell. 5 x 10^-4 / 2x10^-5 = 5/2 x 10^(-4 - -5) = 2.5x10^1 = 25 So the diameter of a grain of sand at 0.5 mm is approximately 25 times larger than that of a human cell at 0.02mm</span>

Find the perimeter of the triangle shown.Simplify your answer.Show all your work.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: 12 sqrt(5)

Explanation:
First simplify:
= Sqrt(45)
= sqrt(9*5) sqrt of 9 is 3 so bring out 3
= 3sqrt(5)

= 2sqrt(20)
= 2sqrt(4*5) sqrt of 4 is 2 so bring that out and multiply it by 2
= 4sqrt(5)

= 5 sqrt(5) is already simplified

= 3sqrt(5) + 4 sqrt(5) + 5sqrt(5)
= 12 sqrt(5)

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 2x + 8?

zubka84 [21]

Using the quadratic equation we get:
$\frac{ - 2 + - \sqrt{4 - 32} }{2} = \frac{ - 2 + - \sqrt{ - 28} }{2}$

Factoring out 2 we get
$\frac{ - 2 + - 2\sqrt{ - 7} }{2} = - 1( + - ) \sqrt{ - 7}$
Factoring out the imaginary number:
$- 1 + \sqrt{7} i \: (and) \: - 1 - \sqrt{7} i$
So b.

Explain an example of how taking an amount (for example, $20), decreasing it by 40% and then increasing that amount by 40% does

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

What we can do is try it out.

20*0.6=12

since 0.6 is left

now we increase 12 by 40, or multiply it by 1.4

12*1.4= 16.8

See what is happening here is that at first when we are decreasing it by 40 percent, we are taking 40 percent of 20. However, when we increase that amount by 40 percent, we are now increasing 40 percent of 20 by 40 percent, or increasing 16 by 40 percent. Therefore, we will not get the original amount.
