Answer:

Option C is correct

Volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the cylinder is given by:

$V =\pi r^2h$

Where

V is the volume of the cylinder

r is the radius

h is the height of the cylinder respectively

As per the statement:

A thermos in the shape of a cylinder is filled with coffee.

the height of the cylinder is 12 inches and its radius is 2 inches

⇒ h = 12 inches and r = 2 inches.

Substitute the given values and use $\pi = 3.14$ in [1]

then;

$V =3.14 \cdot 2^2 \cdot 12$

$V =3.14 \cdot 48$

Simplify:

V ≈150.8 inches.

Therefore, the volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches

There is no exact rule for lines of best fit. However, in general, there should be roughly the same amount above as below. So, if we are following this rule, there should be about 4 below as well.

Stacy has 6 fewer than half as many marbles as Mallory .If Stacy has thirty marbles how many does Mallory have

vodomira [7]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

Stacy has 30 marbles

Let m= the number of marbles that mallory has

stacy has 1/2 m -6

30 = 1/2 m -6

Add 6 to each side

30+6 = 1/2m

36 = 1/2m

Multiply each side by 2

72 = m

Mallory has 72 marbles

STatiana [176]

<em>Note:</em><em> You missed to add some of the details of the question. </em>

<em>Hence, I am solving your concept based on an assumed graph which I have attached. It would anyways clear your concept.</em>

<em></em>

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the right angled-triangle ABC as shown in the attached diagram

From the triangle:

Ф= ∠C = 30°

AB = 6 units

BC = y

tan Ф = opp ÷ adjacent

The opposite of ∠C = 30° is the length '6'.

The adjacent of ∠C = 30° is the length 'y'.

As Ф= ∠C = 30°

so

tan Ф = opp ÷ adjacent

tan 30 = 5 ÷ y

1 ÷ √3 = 5 ÷ y

y = 8.7 units

Therefore, the length of the unknown side length 'y' is 8.7 units.

A fastball is hit straight up over home plate. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is modeled by ℎ = −16푡 ଶ+103푡+5 w

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Question:

A fastball is hit straight up over home plate. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is modeled by h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5, where t is measured in seconds. Write an equation to determine how long it will take for the ball to reach the ground.

Answer:

$t = 5.0625$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5$

Required

Find t when the ball hits the ground

This implies that h(t) = 0

So, we have:

$0=-16t^2+80t+5$

Reorder

$-16t^2+80t+5 = 0$

Using quadratic formula, we have:

$t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Where

$a = -16$ $b =80$ $c = 5$

So, we have:

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{80^2 - 4*-16*5}}{2*-16}$

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6400 +320}}{-32}$

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6720}}{-32}$

$t = \frac{-80\±82.0}{-32}$

This gives:

$t = \frac{-80+82.0}{-32}$ or $t = \frac{-80-82.0}{-32}$

$t = \frac{2}{-32}$ or $t = \frac{-162}{-32}$

$t = -\frac{2}{32}$ or $t = \frac{162}{32}$

But time can not be negative.

So, we have:

$t = \frac{162}{32}$

$t = 5.0625$

<em>Hence, time to hit the ground is 5.0625 seconds</em>
