Answer:

Answer as a fraction: 4/15

Answer as a decimal: 0.267

The decimal version is approximate rounded to three decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 apples, 4 peaches

6+4 = 10 pieces of fruit total

The probability of picking an apple is 6/10 = 3/5

After you pick and eat the apple, there are 10-1 = 9 pieces of fruit left. Also, the probability of picking a peach is 4/9, as there are 4 peaches out of 9 fruit left over.

Multiply out 3/5 and 4/9 to get (3/5)*(4/9) = (3*4)/(5*9) = 12/45 = 4/15

Using a calculator, 4/15 = 0.267 approximately.

We can conclude that both will intersect at a certain angle, depending on this algorithm I created.

28000 + 3000x = 36000 + 2000x

The f(x) intercept for g(x) is = 9 and -9

If you square this by light, the arithmetic of 9x+5x=21s(x)

Thus we can simply and get 11 years.

1. Determine a rule that could be used to explain how the volume of a
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We will use the basic formulas for calculating the volumes of two solid bodies.

- The volume of a cylinder ( V_l ) is represented by:

                                  V_c = \pi *r^2*h

- Similarly, the volume of cone ( V_c ) is represented by:

                                  V_c = \frac{1}{3}*\pi *r^2 * h

Where,

               r : The radius of cylinder / radius of circular base of the cone

               h : The height of the cylinder / cone

- We will investigate the correlation between the volume of each of the two bodies wit the radius ( r ). We will assume that the height of cylinder/cone as a constant.

- We will represent a proportionality of Volume ( V ) with respect to ( r ):

                                  V = C*r^2

Where,

            C: The constant of proportionality

- Hence the proportional relation is expressed as:

                                 V∝ r^2

- The volume ( V ) is proportional to the square of the radius. Now we will see the effect of multiplying the radius ( r ) with a positive number ( a ) on the volume of either of the two bodies:

                                V = C*(a*r)^2\\\\V = C*a^2*r^2

- Hence, we see a general rule frm above relation that multiplying the result by square of the multiple ( a^2 ) will give us the equivalent result as multiplying a multiple ( a ) with radius ( r ).

- Hence, the relations for each of the two bodies becomes:

                              V = (\frac{1}{3} \pi *r^2*h)*a^2

                                          &

                              V = ( \pi *r^2*h)*a^2
