Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
First off, we need to recognize that the formula for the volume of a sphere is .
Then, we can plug in our r values one at a time.
The volume for the sphere with a 6-inch radius is about 904.779.
The volume for the sphere with a 3-inch radius is about 113.097.
To find how much greater the larger sphere is, we simply create a ratio between the two numbers:
Do the division to find that the volume of the larger sphere is about 8 times the volume of the smaller sphere.
Answer:
- 0.83
- 0.9
- steeper than
- slower than
Step-by-step explanation:
Letting t=1 in Ted's equation, we find that he climbs 5/6 stairs in 1 second. As a decimal, 5/6 ≈ 0.83.
Michael climbs 9 stairs in 10 seconds so his rate is ...
... (9 stairs)/(10 seconds) = (9/10) stairs/second = 0.9 stairs/second
Michael's graph will be a line with a slope of 0.9; Ted's graph will be a line with a slope of about 0.83, so the line on Michael's graph is steeper.
Ted climbs fewer stairs per second, so his rate is slower than Michael's.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
You're being asked to compare two different rates that are associated with two different people. First the comparison is one way, then it is the other way. This can be confusing. It might be helpful to draw and label a simple chart to help you keep it straight. (The attachment is such a chart scribbled on a bit of scratch paper. It is sufficient for the purpose.)
