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.

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

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 smaller solid's surface area computes to 214\ m^{2}

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 28t + 500 represents the height of a rock t seconds after it is propelled by a slingshot.What does h
tester [10806]

Answer:

The height of the rock after 3.2 seconds has passed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To respond to this question, we must examine the provided function:

h(t) = –16t2 + 28t + 500

This function h(t) denotes the height of a rock t seconds after it has been launched by a slingshot.

t signifies time (in seconds)

As t is the independent variable and h is the dependent variable, the height of the rock at 3.2 seconds is expressed as h(3.2).

If you have any further questions or need clarification, feel free to ask.

"A sample of 20 randomly chosen water melons was taken from a large population, and their weights were measured. The mean weight
AnnZ [10979]

Answer: (97.98, 112.020)

Step-by-step explanation: We will create a 95% confidence interval for the average weight of melons.

Given the information, we determine that the critical value for the interval needs to be retrieved from a t distribution table due to the sample size being below 30 (specifically, 20), and we are provided with the sample standard deviation (s = 15 lb).

The parameters provided are:

Sample mean = x = 105 lb

Sample standard deviation = s = 15 lb

Sample size = n = 20

To establish the 95% confidence interval, we indicate that the level of significance is 5%.

The formula for the confidence interval is:

u = x + tα/2 × s/√n... for the upper limit

u = x - tα/2 × s/√n... for the lower limit.

tα/2 represents the critical value for the test (which will be determined using the t distribution table).

To derive tα/2, we look for the value based on the degrees of freedom (sample size - 1) against the significance level for a two-tailed test (α/2 = 0.025%) in a t distribution table.

For the upper limit, we calculate:

u = 105 + 2.093×15/√20

u = 105 + 2.093× (3.3541)

u = 105 + 7.020

u = 112.020.

<pfor the="" lower="" limit="" we="" find:="">

u = 105 - 2.093×15/√20

u = 105 - 2.093× (3.3541)

u = 105 - 7.020

u = 97.98

Confidence interval (97.98, 112.020)

. A manager has just received the expense checks for six of her employees. She randomly distributes the checks to the six employ
tester [10806]

Answer:

13.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

With six employees and six checks, there are a total of 36 (6x6) possible distributions. To determine the probability that exactly five individuals receive the correct checks, there’s only one correct distribution for each of them out of the 36 possibilities, resulting in the calculation of 1/36 for the first and then 1/36 for the subsequent checks. Therefore, the final probability becomes 5/36 = 13.8%.
