See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Take the reciprocal of the divisor

Step 2: Multiply the fractions instead

Step 3: Evaluate

Example:

$\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{2}{3}$

Find the equation of the circle whose center and radius are given.

vredina [299]

As i said before put the center instead of (h,k) in the general formula and put r=1
so (x-(-2))^2 + (y-(-5)^2 = 1
(x+2)^2 + (y+5)^2 = 1

I just want to make sure: A baseball is traveling (+20 m/s) and is hit by a bat. It leaves the bat traveling (-30 m/s). What is

g100num [7]

Answer:

50m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We assum the direction the baseball is travelling to the bat is the positive direction at 20 m/s and is hit in the opposite at a faster speed. The change in velocity is the final velocity minus the initial velocity:

$=20-(-30)=50$

The change in velocity is 50m/s

The volume of a sphere is two-thirds of a cylinder. What is the volume of a cylinder that has the same diameter as a sphere with

sattari [20]

Answer:

$V_2= \frac{28}{3} u^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the volume of the cylinder with V1 and the volume of the sphere with V2

So, from the first statement: we have:

$V_2 =\frac{2}{3}V_1$

and

$V_1 = 14u^3$

To solve for $V_2$ , we simply substitute $14u^3$ for $V_1$ in $V_2 =\frac{2}{3}V_1$

$V_2 =\frac{2}{3}V_1$

$V_2= \frac{2}{3} * 14u^3$

$V_2= \frac{2* 14}{3} u^3$

$V_2= \frac{28}{3} u^3$

Hence, the volume of the sphere is $\frac{28}{3} u^3$

A number decreased by fifteen is less than two.

Aliun [14]

Let us assume number of n.

The number is decreased by 15.

Decreasing by 15 means, we need to subtract 15 from that number.

So, it would be come n-15.

Now, it is said that the number would become less than 2.

So, we need to setup an inequality:

n-15 is less than 2.

Adding 15 on both sides, we get

n-15+15 < 2+15

n < 17.

<h3>So, we could say the number would be less than 17.</h3>
