According to the calculations made, 410 gumballs will be needed to fill the box.

Since you are trying to figure out how many gumballs you need to fill a 7.3 x 5.0 x 9.4 rectangular box for Halloween, and each gumball has a radius of 1/2 in, if the packing density for spheres is 5/8 of the volume will be filled with gumballs while the rest will be air how many gumballs will be needed, to determine this amount the following calculation must be performed:

  • (Volume of box x 5/8) / volume of gumballs = Amount of gumballs  
  • Volume of a sphere = 4/3 x 3.14 x (radius x radius x radius)  
  • Volume of a gumball = 4/3 x 3.14 x (0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5) = 0.5235 inches  
  • ((7.3 x 5 x 9.4) x 5/8) / 0.523 = X
  • (343.1 x 5/8) / 0.523 = X
  • 214.4375 / 0.523 = X
  • 410 = X

Therefore, 410 gumballs will be needed to fill the box.

10. simplify the rational expression by rationalizing the denominator.( 1 point ) 4√150/√189x
ddd [48]
Rationalizing the denominator, simply means "getting rid of that pesky root at the bottom", and we do so by simply multiplying it by something to take it out, of course, we multiply the bottom, we have to also multiply the top,

\bf \cfrac{4\sqrt{150}}{\sqrt{189x}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{189x}}{\sqrt{189x}}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{150}\sqrt{189x}}{(\sqrt{189x})^2}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{(150)({189x})}}{189x}

\bf \cfrac{4\sqrt{28350x}}{189x}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
28350=2\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 5\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot 3^2\cdot 3^2\cdot 5^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (3^2)^2\cdot 5^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (3^2\cdot 5)^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (45)^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 14\cdot 45^2
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{14\cdot 45^2}}{189x}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4\cdot 45\sqrt{14}}{189}\implies \cfrac{180\sqrt{14}}{189x}\implies \cfrac{20\sqrt{14}}{21x}

For questions 1 – 6, find the area of the circle to the nearest hundredth.<br> Any help appriciated!
Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by :

A = πr²

r is the radius of the circle

(4) Diameter = 22 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 11 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (11)^2\\\\A=380.13\ cm^2

(5) Diameter = 30 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 15 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (15)^2\\\\A=706.85\ cm^2

(6) Diameter = 4cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 2 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (2)^2\\\\A=12.56\ cm^2

So, the area of circles 4,5 and 6 are 380.13², 706.85² and 12.56² respectively.

Find the equation of the straight line with the gradient -2/3 and passing through the point(1,1)
adell [148]

Answer:

y = -2/3 x + 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = -2/3 x + b

1 = -2/3 × 1 + b

3/3 + 2/3 = b

b = 5/3

y = -2/3 x + 5/3
