Answer:
When increasing the radius 3 times the volume increases 9 times and when it is reduced to a third the volume decreases 9 times
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the formula for the volume of a cone is:
Vc = pi * (r ^ 2) * h
We first calculate the original volume, where the radius is 2 and the height is 9, replacing:
Vc = 3.14 * (2 ^ 2) * 9
Vc = 113.04
Now if the radius is tripled it would be: 2 * 3 = 6, the radius would be 6, replacing:
Vc = 3.14 * (6 ^ 2) * 9
Vc = 1017.36
If we compare:
1017.36 / 113.04 = 9
This means that when the radius is tripled, the volume increases 9 times.
When if re reduces to a third the radius would be: 2/3, replacing:
Vc = 3.14 * ((2/3) ^ 2) * 9
Vc = 12.56
113.04 / 12.56 = 9
Which means that by reducing it to a third the volume becomes 9 times smaller.
The general form of a quadratic (second degree) equation is
, where
is called the Discriminant.
The Discriminant determines how many roots the equation will have as follows:
i) if D>0, the equation has 2 roots.
ii) if D=0, the equation has 1 double root.
iii) if D<0, the equation has no roots.
In our equation,
, a=1, b=-5, c=7
so the discriminant is D=(-5)^2-4*1*7=25-28<0
Thus the equation has no roots.
Remark: the equation has no roots in the Real numbers, but it has 2 roots in a larger set of numbers to be discussed in the future, the Complex numbers.
The answer is 25 chicks
Reasoning:
This is a simple problem.
Consider you are the only chick that matters, and construct a table to say whether YOU get pecked. Your chance of being pecked comes down to only 4 outcomes. (1) YES - pecked twice. (2) YES - pecked from left wing only. (3) YES - pecked from right wing only. (4) NO - unpecked.
The table has 4 elements, all of equal probability, 1 of which is unpecked. YOU are therefore pecked 3:1 ratio or 3:4 opportunities 75% of the time. For convenience, this needs to be conducted for 100 trials of YOU, and the answer is that 25 times YOU will NOT be pecked. The circular nature of the 100 chicks says that YOU are not unique, and your experience is the same as the others, so we extrapolate your experience of 100 trials to a single trial of 100 chicks just like YOU. 25 unpecked chicks, 50 get pecked once, 25 get double pecks.
This is the same table constructed for 100 women having two children and asking how many have no girls.
Answer:
Rs. 450 and Rs. 300
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add the ratios; 3 + 2 = 5
Step 2: Put each ratio over the total, to see what proportion each part receives 3/5 and 2/5
Step 3: Multiply the 750 by the fraction to calculate the proportion that each part contains
3/5 x 750 = Rs. 450
2/5 x 750 = Rs. 300
