The surface areas of two similar solids are 16m2 and 100 m2. The volume of the larger one is 750m3. What is the volume of the smaller one?

48 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale factor of linear dimensions between two solids is k, then the scale factor for areas is k^2, and the scale factor of volumes is k^3.

Let's call the solid with 16 m^2 of area solid A, and the other one solid B.

The scale factor of areas from, A to B is (100 m^2)/(16 m^2) = 25/4

In other words, multiply the area of the solid A by 25/4 to get the area of solid B.

Let's check: 16 m^2 * 25/4 = 16 * 25/4 m^2 = 4 * 25 m^2 = 100 m^2

We do get 100 m^2 for solid B, so the area scale factor of 25/4 is correct.

The area scale factor is k^2, so we have:

k^2 = 25/4

We solve for k:

k = 5/2

Now we cube both sides to get k^3, the scale factor of volumes.

k^3 = 5^3/2^3

k^3 = 125/8

Let V = volume of smaller solid, solid A.

V * 125/8 = 750 m^3

V = 750 * 8/125 m^3

V = 48 m^3

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

yes   because as the functions are graphed they eventually will intersect unless otherwise
