M + f = 250 ;
m - 18 = ( 3 / 5)f ;

5m / 5 - 90 / 5 = 3f;
5m - 90 = 3f ;
5m - 3f = 90;
But, f = 250 - m;
5m - 3( 250 - m ) = 90 ;
5m - 750 + 3m = 90 ;
8m = 840;
m = 840 ÷ 8 ;
m = 105( beads for Maria );
f = 250 - 105 ;
f = 145 ( beads for Farida ) ;

A volleyball of radius 13 inches fits exactly in a cylinder with the same radius. inside the container there is empty space not
asambeis [7]

Volume of Sphere is V=(4/3)*PI*r^3

The radius of the volleyball is 13 inches

<span>So V=(4/3) * 3.14 * 13^3 =  9198 cubic inches</span>

 

Volume of a cylinder is V=pi * r^2 *h

Since they say the ball fits perfectly

The radius is 13 and the height is 26 ( the diameter of the ball)

So V=3.14 * 13^2 * 26 = 13,797 cubic inches

 

13797 – 9198 = 4,599 cubic inches of empty space

KIM [24]

F<span>or every 1,000 feet you go up in elevation</span>, <span>the temperature decreases by about 3.3°F</span>

 

Given:

Temperature at the bottom of the mountain is 74°F

The top of the mountain is 5500 feet above you

 

Change (reduction) in temperature is 3.3 X 5500 / 1000

= 18.15°F

 

Temperature at the top of the mountain is 74°F – 18.15°F

= 55.85°F

The value of a school bus reduces from $512000 to $343000in 3 years. Find the
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

<em>The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rate of Depreciation</u>

If some object has a certain value P and after some time t its value decreases to Q, the rate of depreciation is a measure of how much its value changed per unit time.

It can be calculated as:

\displaystyle R=\frac{P-Q}{t}

It can also be expressed as a percentage, dividing the previous value by P.

The school bus reduces its value from $512,000 to $343,000 in 3 years, thus:

\displaystyle R=\frac{512,000-343,000}{3}

\displaystyle R=\frac{169,000}{3}

R = 56,333 $/year

Expressed as a percentage:

R = 56,333 / 512,000 = 0.11

R = 11%/year

The uniform rate of depreciation is $56,333 per year, or 11% per year.
