Aperson is purchasing a new golf club bag. the compartment for the golf balls is approximately the shape of a rectangular prism with the dimensions of 8 inches by 11 inches by 5 inches. assuming golf balls are spherical with a 1.68 inch diameter, how many golf balls should fit in the compartment bag?

The answer to your question is: ≈ 178 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

rectangular prism = 8 in x 11 in x 5 in

golf balls = 1.68 in diameter

Formula

Volume rectangular prism = l x w x h = 8 x 11 x 5 = 440 in³

Volume of ball = (4/3) πr³ = (4/3) (3.1416) (0.84)³ = 2.48 in³

# of balls inside the compartment = volume rectangular prism / volume ball

# of balls = 440 / 2.48

               = 177.4 ≈ 178 balls

whole numbers.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the average monthly rainfall (in millimeters) model r(m) for the years 1900-2009 as a function of the month number m.

as we can see m is taken for the number of months for years 1900-2009.

we know that number of months can't be a negative number or decimal number or a fraction.

so, the number of months could be only positive whole numbers.

therefore, whole numbers is more appropriate for the domain of r.
