What is the radius of a hemisphere with a volume of 885 in^3, to the nearest tenth of an inch?

Mathematics

Answer:

The desired radius is r = 7.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere of radius r is V = (4/3)πr³.  A hemisphere is half a full sphere, so the formula for the volume of a hemisphere of radius r is (4/3)(1/2)πr³, or (2/3)πr³.

We know that the volume of the hemisphere is 885 in³:

885 in³ = (2/3)πr³ and need to solve this first for r³ and then for r.

This is equivalent to:

885 in³ = (2π/3)r³.

We can now isolate r³ by multiplying both sides of this equation by (3 / [2π]):

(3 / [2π])(885 in³) = (3 / [2π])(2π/3)r³ = r³

Then r³ = 422.556 in³

Finally, we find the desired hemisphere radius by taking the cube root of both sides of the above equation:

r = ∛(422.556 in³) = 7.5 in (which is to the nearest tenth of an inch)

The desired radius is r = 7.5 inches

The rectangular prism shown has a surface area of 488 square inches. What is the length of the prism?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

length of the prism = 244 - (width x height) / width + height)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length be a and width be b and height be c

2 (a * b) + 2 (b* c) + 2 (a * c) = 488

2ab+ 2bc + 2ac = 488

ab + bc + ac = 244

ab + ac = 244 - ac

a (b + c) = 244-ac

a = 244-bc / b + c

Therefore the length of the prism = 244 - (width x height) / width + height)

A square has a perimeter of 28 inches. Find the area of the square.
sasho [114]

Answer:

A = 49 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is found by

P = 4s where s is the side length

28 = 4s

Divide each side by 4

28/4 = 4s/4

7 =s

We want to find the area

A = s^2 where s is the side length

A = 7^2

A = 7^2

A = 49 in^2
