3(x+2)-4x+2=3x+2(x-8)
3x+6-4x+2=3x+2x-16
3x-4x+6+2=5x-16
-x+8=5x-16
-x-5x=-16-8
-6x=-24 divide both sides by -6 we get
X=4

A tennis ball has a diameter of 2.7 inches. The tennis coach wants to fill her storage shed with tennis balls. If the storage sh

Oksanka [162]

Given that,

The diameter of a tennis ball, d = 2.7 inches

Radius, r = 1.35 inches

The dimensions of the storage shed is 14 feet wide, 15 feet long, and 10 feet high.

Volume of the shed is, V = lbh

$V=14\times 15\times 10\\\\V=2100\ \text{feet}^3$

We can convert radius from inches to feet :

1 foot = 12 inches

Radius, r = 0.1125 feet

Let there are x number of tennis balls that can fit in the shed. So,

$x\times V_b=V_s\\\\\text{Where}\ V_b\ \text{and}\ V_s\ \text{volume of ball and shed}\\\\x=\dfrac{V_s}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}\\\\x=\dfrac{2100}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \times (0.1125)^3}$

x = 352105.75 balls

x = 352106 balls

Hence, 352106 balls can fit in the storage shed.
