Solution:

Note that:

4/7 = 10/x

To find the solution to the proportion, we will need to simplify the equation (4/7 = 10/x)

4/7 = 10/x
=> 4x = 70
=> x = 70/4 = 35/2 = 17.5.

Hoped this helped!

Answer:

$Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ first\ box=384\ inches^2\\Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ second\ box=486\ inches^2\\Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ first\ box=600\ inches^2\\Total\ Area\ of\ material\ required=1470\ inches^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ are\ given:\\Diameter\ of\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches \\Diameter\ of\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches\\Diameter\ of\ the\ third\ volleyball= 10\ inches.\\Hence,\\We\ know\ that,\\If\ the\ side\ of\ the\ cube\ box\ is\ s, it's\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ =No.\ of\\ faces\ in\ a\ regular\ polyhedron\ *Area\ of\ each\ face\ of\ the\ polyhedron=6*s^2=6s^2\\Hence,\\Lets\ apply\ this\ equation\ in\ finding\ the\ area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\\ three\ cases.\\$

$As\ the\ volleyball\ should\ wholly\ fit\ into\ the\ box,\ the\ diameter\ of\ the\\ volleyballs\ would\ be\ the\ side\ of\ the\ cube\ box.\\Hence,\\For\ the\ first\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ first\ box=6s^2=6*8*8=384\ inches^2$

$For\ the\ second\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ second\ box=6s^2=6*9*9=486\ inches^2$

$For\ the\ third\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ third\ volleyball=8\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ third\ volleyball=10\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ third\ box=6s^2=6*10*10=600\ inches^2$

$Hence,\\If\ you\ are\ asked\ the\ Total\ Area\ to\ make\ all\ the\ boxes,\\ you\ just\ add\ them\ together.\\Hence,\\Total\ Area\ of\ Material\ required\ to\ make\ the\ three\ boxes=384+486+600=1470\ inches^2$

Answer:

im pretty sure the answer would be,

$2 \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the median is the middle number of the data, and since there are two medians, you find the mean of the two numbers by adding them together, and then you divide it by 2.

What is the interest earned on $3000 at a rate of 0.04 for three years? The formula is interest equals (principal) (rate) (time)

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The interest after 3 years is $360

Explanation:

Given the principal amount (P) = $3000

Rate of interest (R) = 0.04

Time period (T) is given as 3 years

The Simple Interest is calculated by the formula;

$SI = Principal \times Rate of Interest \times Time$

Substituting the values in the above formula,

$SI = 3000 \times 0.04 \times 3$

SI = $360

Therefore, the interest after 3 years is $360

What is the relationship between the degree measure of the angle formed by the straight edges of a section of a circle graph as

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

degree measure = 360° × percent of data

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the degree measure of a sector of a circle graph to 360° is the same as the ratio of the represented data to the whole amount of data.

The idea of a circle graph is that the area of the sector is proportional to the data being represented. That is, if the data represented is 10% of the whole, then the sector area is 10% of the whole. Sector area is proportional to the degree measure of its central angle, so the example sector would have a central angle of 10% of 360°, or 36°.

The ratio of the central angle of the sector to 360° is the same as the percentage of data that sector represents.
