Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Using ratios:

75 : 25 = x : 7

75/25 = x/7

3 = x/7

21 = x

Using Pythagoras' Theorem a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle:

$72^2+x^2=75^2$

$\implies x^2=75^2-72^2$

$\implies x=\sqrt{75^2-72^2}$

$\implies x=21$

Find the ratio of the volume of one sphere to the volume of the right cylinder

yarga [219]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let $r$ be the radius of one sphere.</em>

Volume of sphere is $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Since radius is r, the height of the cylinder will be $4r$

Also, the cylinder has the same radius as the sphere: $r$

Volume of Cylinder is $V=\pi r^2 h$

Plugging in the values we get: $V=\pi (r)^{2}(4r)=4\pi r^3$

<u>Ratio of volume of 1 sphere to volume of cylinder is</u>:

$\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{4\pi r^3}=\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{4}=\frac{4}{3}*\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{3}$

The ratio is 1:3

Answer choice B is right.

Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate. Time (minutes) Altitude (meters) 666 -20.4−20.4min

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$-6$ meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate.

We are also given a table of data as:

Time (minutes) Altitude (meters)

6 -20.4

9 -27.6

12 -34.8

First of all, we will find Mr. Mole's digging rate using slope formula and given information as:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ , where,

$y_2-y_1$ represents difference of two y-coordinates,

$x_2-x_1$ represents difference of two corresponding x-coordinates of y-coordinates.

Let $(6,-20.4)$ be $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(9,-27.6)$ be $(x_2,y_2)$ .

$m=\frac{-27.6-(-20.4)}{9-6}$

$m=\frac{-27.6+20.4}{3}$

$m=\frac{-7.2}{3}$

$m=-2.4$

Now, we will use slope-intercept form of equation to find altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow.

$y=mx+b$ , where,

m = Slope,

b = The initial value or the y-intercept.

Upon substituting $m=-2.4$ and coordinates of point $(6,-20.4)$ , we will get:

$-20.4=-2.4(6)+b$

$-20.4=-14.4+b$

$-20.4+14.4=-14.4+14.4+b$

$-6=b$

Since in our given case y-intercept represents the altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow, therefore, the altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow is $-6$ meters.
