A few students conducted a study on how many peanuts it would take to completely fill a jar. They had the following data to help

them with the study: In a container with a volume of 108 they could fit 65 peanuts. In a container with a volume of 150 they could fit 90 peanuts. The height of the jar for the peanuts is 16 cm and the radius is 3.5 cm. What number would be a good estimate for the number of peanuts in a jar this size?

Answer:

370 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

65/108 = 0.60185

90/150 = 0.6000

In each case, the number of peanuts is either exactly or very close to 60% of the volume.

A cylinder with radius 3.5 cm and height 16 cm has volume:

V = (pi)r^2h

V = (3.14159)(3.5 cm)^2(16 cm)

V = 615.752 cm^3

We take 60% of the volume to estimate the number of peanuts.

60% * 615.752 cm^3 = 369.451

Answer: 370 peanuts

In the equation 3/4y+1/2=3 1/4, the fractional coefficient is what
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: \frac{3}{4}y + \frac{1}{2} = 3 \frac{1}{4}

In the given equation, \frac{3}{4} is a coefficient and y is the variable.

coefficient is a constant number or quantity multiplied to a variable in an algebric expression. Like in the above equation \frac{3}{4} is a coefficient and y is the variable. We use term variable for y as its value may vary or change. If variable does not have any coefficient in any expression then in that case, we consider 1 as coefficient, for example: x+4, here variable have 1 as coefficient.

Hence, the fractional coefficient is \frac{3}{4}.

R560 invested at 8% p.a. simple interest for 3 years​
alexdok [17]

Answer:

R 694.4

Explanation:

simple interest = \sf{\dfrac{PRT}{100} → \sf \dfrac{560*8*3}{100} → R 134.4

where p refers to principal, r refers to rate, t refers to time.

total money:

invested money + simple interest

R 134.4 + R 560 → R 694.4

Gather information from relevant source and write about the he Earth's moon .<br>1000 words​
just olya [345]

Answer:

The Moon's orbit around Earth has a sidereal period of 27.3 days. During each synodic period of 29.5 days, the amount of visible surface illuminated by the Sun varies from none up to 100%, resulting in lunar phases that form the basis for the months of a lunar calendar. The Moon is tidally locked to Earth, which means that the length of a full rotation of the Moon on its own axis causes its same side (the near side) to always face Earth, and the somewhat longer lunar day is the same as the synodic period. That said, 59% of the total lunar surface can be seen from Earth through shifts in perspective due to libration.[17]

The most widely accepted origin explanation posits that the Moon formed about 4.51 billion years ago, not long after Earth, out of the debris from a giant impact between the planet and a hypothesized Mars-sized body called Theia. It then receded to a wider orbit because of tidal interaction with the Earth. The near side of the Moon is marked by dark volcanic maria ("seas"), which fill the spaces between bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. Most of the large impact basins and mare surfaces were in place by the end of the Imbrian period, some three billion years ago. The lunar surface is relatively non-reflective, with a reflectance just slightly brighter than that of worn asphalt. However, because it has a large angular diameter, the full moon is the brightest celestial object in the night sky. The Moon's apparent size is nearly the same as that of the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun almost completely during a total solar eclipse.
