Question 9.
Bobby downloaded pictures of a cruise ship and a ski run from the internet. The file size of the cruise ship is about 794 kilobytes while the file size of the ski run is about 2.6 megabytes.
a) What is the total file size, in megabytes and in kilobytes, of a file containing the two pictures?
Answer:
Given that the file size of the cruise ship is 794 kilobytes.
And the file size of the ski run is 2.6 megabytes.
The total file size of two pictures is 794 kilobytes + 2.6 megabytes
1 kilobyte = 0.001 megabyte
794 kilobytes = 0.794 megabytes
Therefore 0.794 + 2.6 = 3.394 megabytes.
The total file size of two pictures in megabytes is 3.394 megabytes.
1 megabyte = 1000 kilobytes
2.6 kilobytes = 2.6 × 1000 = 2600 kilobytes
Therefore the total file size of two pictures in kilobytes is 2600 kilobytes.

b) Calculate the difference in file size, in megabytes and in kilobytes, between the two pictures.
Answer:
Given that the file size of the cruise ship is 794 kilobytes.
1 kilobyte = 0.001 megabyte
794 kilobytes = 0.794 megabytes
And the file size of the ski run is 2.6 megabytes.
1 megabyte = 1000 kilobytes
2.6 megabytes = 2.6 × 1000 = 2600 kilobytes
Therefore the file size of the cruise ship is 794 kilobytes.
And the file size of the ski run is 2600 kilobytes.
The difference between the two pictures in kilobytes is 2600 – 794 = 1806
The file size of the cruise ship is 0.794 megabytes
And the file size of the ski run is 2.6 megabytes.
The difference between the two pictures in megabytes is 2.6 – 0.794 = 1.806

c) To the nearest tenth, about how many times as great as the file size of the ski run picture is the file size of the ship picture?
Answer:
Given that the file size of the cruise ship is 794 kilobytes.
Here 794 nearest to the tenth place is 790 kilobytes
1 kilobyte = 0.001 megabyte
790 kilobytes = 0.001 × 790 = 0.79 megabytes
And the file size of the ski run is 2.6 megabytes
2.6 nearest to the tenth is 3 megabytes
Therefore 3 megabytes – 0.79 megabytes
= 2.21 megabytes
The file size of the ski run picture is 2.21 megabytes great as the file size of the cruise ship.

Question 17.
The volume of a spherical tank is 790.272π cubic feet.
What is the diameter of the container?

Answer:
The diameter of the container is 16.8 ft,

Explanation:
Given the volume of a spherical tank is 790.272π cubic feet.
so radius is 4/3 pi r³ = 790.272π,
r³ = (790.272 X 3)/4 = 592.704,
r= 8.4,

diameter of the container is 2r = 2 X 8.4 = 16.8 ft.

Question 19.
Mr. Berman deposited $2,500 in a savings account. Three years later there
was $2,812.16 in the savings account. Use the formula A = P(1 + r)ⁿ to find
the rate of interest, r percent, that he was paid. A represents the final amount of the
investment, P is the original principal, and n is the number of years it was invested.
Answer:
Rate of intreset is 5.78%,

Explanation:
Given Mr. Berman deposited $2,500 in a savings account. Three years later there
was $2,812.16 in the savings account. Using the formula A = P(1 + r)ⁿ to find
the rate of interest, r percent, that he was paid. A represents the final amount of the
investment, P is the original principal, and n is the number of years it was invested,
$2812.16 = $2,500(1 + r)³
$2812.16 – $2,500 = (1 + r)³
(1 + r)³ = $312.16
1 + r = cube root of $312.16,

1 + r = 6.7835,
therefore r = 6.7835 – 1 = 5.7835.
