A metallic spherical ball of radius 14 cm is being melted and recast it into spherical balls of radius 2 cm. How many spherical balls will be created? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Volume of sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Volume of large sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 14^3 = 11488.21 cubic cm

Volume of smaller sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3 = 33.49 cubic cm

Number of small spheres = volume of large sphere/ volume of small sphere

11488.21 / 33.49 = 343.03

Round to 343 small spheres

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.
