The salsa consists of 65% tomatoes, which amounts to 5.2 cups.

Let’s denote the total salsa as "x" cups, representing 100%. Given that 5.2 cups makes up 65%, we have:

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} cups&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 5.2&65\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{5.2}{x}=\cfrac{65}{100}\implies \cfrac{5.2}{x}=\cfrac{13}{20}\implies 104=13x \\\\\\ \cfrac{104}{13}=x\implies 8=x

An arc on a circle measures 250°. Within which range is the radian measure of the central angle? 0 to StartFraction pi Over 2 En
Inessa [12570]
The central angle lies within the interval from π to 3π/2. To convert angles from degrees to radians, one must multiply the degree measure by 180/π. Similarly, converting radians to degrees requires multiplying the radian measure by 180°/π. For instance, π/2 translates to 90°, π rad converts to 180°, 3π/2 equates to 270°, and 2π corresponds to 360°. Consequently, an angle of 250 degrees, which is between 180 and 270, falls within the range of π to 3π/2.

A function is expressed by the equation y=0.3x−6. For what value of the independent variable will the value of the function be e
Leona [12618]

Response:

0; 10; 20

Detailed explanation:

x serves as the independent variable

y functions as the dependent variable

the value of y relies on x

a) What is the independent variable value that makes the function result in −6

y=0.3x−6

-6 = 0.3x-6

0=0.3x

x = 0

Hence, when the independent variable is 0, the function yields -6.

b) What is the independent variable value for which the function equals −3

y=0.3x−6

-3 = 0.3x-6

0.3x = -3+6

0.3x = 3

x = 3/0.3

x = 10

Thus, if the independent variable is 10, the function will give -3.

c) What independent variable value results in a function of 0.

y=0.3x−6

0=0.3x-6

6 = 0.3x

x = 6/0.3

x = 20

Therefore, for an independent variable of 20, the function results in 0.

A hollow sphere sits snugly in a foam cube so that the sphere touches each side of the cube. Find the volume of the foam.
Leona [12618]

Answer:

                          π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r denote the radius of the sphere. The volume of the sphere is expressed as

V = (4/3)(π)(r³).

Next, understand that the cube's side length is 2r, hence the cube's volume is

V = (2r)³, which equals 8r³.

The volume of the foam is derived from the cube's volume subtracting that of the sphere:

V-foam = 8r³ - (4/3)(π)(r³). This can be simplified to

                          π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3
