This question is incomplete because it lacks the required diagram. Please find attached the diagram required to answer the question.

Answer:

14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone = 1/3 πr²h

In the above question, we are given the volume = 314 cubic feet

the height is given in the attached diagram = 6ft

Step 1

We find the radius.

From the formula for the volume of a cone, we can derive the formula for radius of the cone.

Radius of the cone = √(3 × V/π × h

π = 3.14

Radius of the cone = √( 3 × 314 /3.14 × 6

Radius of the cone = √942/3.14× 6

Radius = √50

= 7.0710678119feet

Step 2

Diameter of the cone = Radius of the cone × 2

= 7.0710678119 × 2

= 14.142135624 feet

Approximately to the nearest foot = 14 feet

Therefore, the diameter of the cone to the nearest foot = 14 feet.

Emily wants to watch her intake of fat per day.

gavmur [86]

<u>Answer:</u>

68.5%

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given that Emily estimates that her dinner will have 48 grams of fat.

From the given guideline of the recommended daily allowances, we can see that the recommended allowance of fat is 70 grams.

We are to find the percentage of her total daily allowance of fat will the dinner be.

$\frac { 4 8 } { 7 0 } \times 100 =$ = 68.5%

Constructing a frequency distribution beginning with a lower class limit of 15.0 and use a class width of 6.0.

we have:

Body Mass Index____ Frequency

15.0 - 20.9__________3( values of 17.7, 18.3, & 19.2 are within this range)

21.0 to 26.9__________8 values are within this range)

27.0 - 32.9____________ 5 values

33.0 - 38.9____________ 2 values

39.0 - 44.9 _____________2 values

The frequency distribution is not a normal distribution. Here, although the frequencies start from the lowest, increases afterwards and then a decrease is recorded again, it is not normally distributed because it is not symmetric.

The function y = -0.03(x - 14)^2 + 6 models the mump of a red kangaroo where x is the horizontal distance in meters and y is the

Galina-37 [17]

The trick here is to find the vertex for its highest point and find the root that is of the greatest value for the final distance.

The nice thing about this function is that it has been written in what we call vertex form. This means that the maximum (or minimum if the parabola opens upwards) is given to us at the end of the function. In this case it is 6. We know that the graph starts at (0,0) (because the cangaroo jumps starting at no height with no distance so far) and so if the x-value given for the vertex is 14, we know that if we double that value, it will give us the second root. The total distance jumped is 28m.

Highest point: 6m
Total distance: 28m
