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

The path of a ball kicked from the ground can be modeled by the equation y=−1/5(x−5)(x−20), where x and y are measured in feet.
Helen [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is already factored for the zeros of the quadratic.  If x - 5 = 0 and x - 20 = 0 then x = 5 and 20.  The ball was kicked 5 feet out and landed at 20 feet down the field.  The difference is 15 feet.  That's how far the ball traveled from its initial position on the ground to its landing place.

So 15 feet from where it was kicked.
