We understand that

scale \ factor^{3}=\frac {volume\ larger\ solid }{volume\ smaller\ solid}

thus

Determine the scale factor

volume\ larger\ solid= 1,680\ m^{3} \\ volume\ smaller\ solid= 210\ m^{3}

substitute the values into the formula

scale \ factor^{3}=\frac {1,680 }{210}

scale \ factor^{3}=8

scale \ factor=\sqrt[3]{8} \\ scale \ factor= 2

Find the smaller solid's surface area

we understand that

scale \ factor^{2}=\frac {surface\ area\ larger\ solid }{surface\ area\ smaller\ solid}

surface\ area\ larger\ solid =856\ m^{2} \\ scale\ factor =2

surface\ area\ smaller\ solid= \frac{surface\ area\ larger\ solid}{scale \ factor^{2}}

substituting the values

surface\ area\ smaller\ solid= \frac{856}{2^{2}}

surface\ area\ smaller\ solid=214\ m^{2} }

therefore

the answer yields

The surface area of the smaller solid computes to 214\ m^{2}

\bf \textit{ratio relations}\\
\begin{array}{llll}
sides&\cfrac{s}{s}\\\\
Area&\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}\\\\
Volume&\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}
\end{array}\qquad thus\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{\textit{smaller volume}}{\textit{bigger volume}}\implies \cfrac{210}{1680}=\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}\implies \cfrac{210}{1680}=\left( \cfrac{s}{s} \right)^3
\\\\\\
\sqrt[3]{\cfrac{210}{1680}}=\cfrac{s}{s}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{210}}{\sqrt[3]{1680}}=\cfrac{s}{s}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\



\bf now
\\\\
\cfrac{\textit{smaller area}}{\textit{bigger area}}\implies \cfrac{A}{856}=\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}\implies \cfrac{A}{856}=\left( \cfrac{s}{s}\right)^2
\\\\\\\\
\textit{however, recall that }\sqrt[3]{\cfrac{210}{1680}}=\cfrac{s}{s}\qquad thus
\\\\\\\\
\cfrac{A}{856}=\left( \sqrt[3]{\cfrac{210}{1680}}\right)^2\implies 
\cfrac{A}{856}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{210^2}}{\sqrt[3]{1680^2}}

Resolve for "A" to determine the surface area of the smaller solid.

A father lifts a toddler 1.5 m up in the air. The child gains 187.5 J of energy in her gravitational potential energy store as a
Svet_ta [12734]

The toddler weighs 12.5 kg.

In-depth explanation:

The formula for gravitational potential energy is Ep=mgh where;

Ep=gravitational potential energy

m=mass of an object

g=gravitational field strength

h=height in meters

Given that; h= 1.5m, Ep=187.5J, g=10 N/kg then finding m;

Ep=mgh

187.5=m*10*1.5

187.5=15m

187.5/15 =15m/15

m=12.5 kg

Rachel found this rate of change for the scenario represented in the table.
babunello [11817]
THE FUNCTION IS CONTINUOUS - True
The table indicates that for every hour indicated, there is a corresponding amount of juice (cups) provided. The graph would represent a linear progression between the hours of 4 and 8 without any discontinuities.

TIME IS THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE - False
Time acts as the independent variable since it remains unaffected by any other factors. Conversely, the number of cups is contingent upon the hours, categorizing it as a dependent variable.

THE SCENARIO IS CHARACTERIZED BY
A LINEAR FUNCTION AS THE RATE OF CHANGE IS CONSTANT - True
The rate of change is a steady 53 cups per hour, indicating a linear function.

AS TIME INCREASES, THERE ARE FEWER CUPS OF JUICE POURED EACH HOUR - False
Since the rate of change is positive, the cups poured each hour will actually increase.

FOR EACH EXTRA HOUR, 53 CUPS OF JUICE ARE POURED - True
The hourly difference in cups poured is consistently 53.
