Answer:

243^{2/3}:324 or approximately 0.481

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3πr³

Surface area of a sphere: 4πr²

The initial sphere of radius 9 has a volume of \displaystyle\\9^3\cdot \frac{4}{3}\cdot \pi=972\pi

When melted into three identical spheres, each must have a volume of \displaystyle \frac{972\pi}{3}=324\pi

The radius of the smaller spheres must be:

\frac{4}{3}\pi r_s^3=324\pi \implies r_s=\sqrt[3]{243}\approx 6.24

Surface area of each smaller sphere:

\displaystyle \\4\pi r^2\vert_{r=6.24}\approx 155.76\pi

Surface area of initial sphere:

\displaystyle \\4\pi r^2\vert_{r=9}\approx 324\pi

The desired ratio is 155.76/324\approx \boxed{0.481}

Exact: 243^{2/3}:324

Answer:

<em>The ratio is 1 to 2</em>  

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the original sphere is ≈ 3,053.63 units³

The surface area of the original sphere is ≈ 1,017.88 units²

Volume of one of the small sphere is ≈ 1,017.88 units³

The radius of one of the small sphere is ≈ 6.24 units

The surface area of one of the small sphere is ≈ 489.3 units²

The ratio of the surface area of one of the small sphere to the surface area of the original sphere is

\frac{489.3}{1017.88} ≈ \frac{1}{2}

489.3 / 1017.88 ≈ 1 / 2  

<em>The ratio is 1 to 2</em>

Confused someone help
jekas [21]

Answer:

y = -5x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

equation of a parallel line

y = -5x + 6

point through which it passes

(-4,-1)

Step1

Find the gradient of the equation given, as it is parallel so it will have same gradient

equation of straight line

y = mx + c

where m is gradient

            c is y intercept

y = -5x + 6

m =-5

Step2

Find y-intercept

-1 = -5(-4) + c

-1 = 20 + c

c = -20 - 1

c = -21

Step3

form the equation

y = -5x - 21
