Find the exact volume of a cone 6yd height 5yd base

Answers

Answer:

The exact volume of a cone is 10 yd³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of cone (h) is 6 yd and base (b) is 5 yd.

Now, to get the volume we need to find the radius.

So, to find radius we put the formula of base:

Let the radius be [tex]r[/tex]

Base=[tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]b=\pi\times r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]5=\pi\times r^{2}[/tex]

Dividing both sides by π and using square root on both the sides:

[tex]5\div \pi=(\pi \times r^{2}) \div \pi[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{\pi}=r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{\pi}=r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r^{2}=\frac{5}{\pi}-----1[/tex]

Now, putting the formula for getting the volume (v) of cone:

Volume = [tex]\pi r^2\frac{h}{3}[/tex]

[tex]v=\pi\times r^{2}\times \frac{6}{3}[/tex]

[tex]v=\pi\times r^{2}\times 2[/tex]

Substituting the value of [tex]r^2[/tex] from equation (1), we get:

[tex]v=\pi\times \frac{5}{\pi}\times 2[/tex]

[tex]v=10[/tex] yd³

Volume of cone is 10 yd³

Therefore, the exact volume of a cone is 10 yd³.

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear functions are given by:

y = mx+b

To find the slope, we have to find the change in x and y

The change in x is:

[tex]-14-(42) =-14+42 =28\\14+14= 28[/tex]

The change in y is:

[tex]-28-(-84) = -28+84 = 56\\28-(-28) = 28+28 = 56[/tex]

The slope is:

[tex]Slope = \frac{change\ in\ y}{Change\ in\ x}\\=\frac{56}{28}\\= 2[/tex]

Putting slope in equation of linear function

[tex]y =2x+b[/tex]

To find the value of b, we will put any pair of input and output in the slope-intercept form

So, putting (14,28)

[tex]28 = 2(14) + b\\28 = 28+b\\b = 28-28\\b = 0[/tex]

The cost of having one pizza delivered is $14. Each additional pizza cost $9 more. Write the explicit and recursive formula to represent the situation.​

Answers

Answer:

14 +(9×x) = y x being the number of pizzas that are not the first one and y is the amount it all cost

Answer:

See explanation below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to express the number of pizza delivered. Lets try to understand the case.

If we buy one pizza (p1) the cost is 14 because of the delivery plus 9 for the cost of the pizza. So:

p1 = 14 + 9 = 23

If we buy 2 pizzas (p2) we have to pay 14 for the delivery and 9 for each pizza:

p2 = 14 + 9 + 9 = 14 + 2*9 = 32

If 3 pizzas are bought (p3) the reasoning is the same, 14 for the delivery and 9 for each pizza:

p3 = 14 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 14 + 3*9 = 41

Here we can see a pattern: for any amount of pizzas n the cost will be 14 plus n-times 9, the price of a pizza. It is:

pn = 14 + 9*n

But we can separate the last equation in such a way:

pn = 14 + 9*(n-1) + 9 , as 9*(n-1) + 9 = 9*n

But if our general formula it true, the first to terms on the right are the vost of buying n-1 pizzas, so:

pn = pn-1 + 9

We can keep on separating terms as we did to arrive to this form, this is, separating the 9n in  9*(n-2) + 9*2,  9*(n-3) + 9*3, ...,  9*(n-m) + 9*m for any m < n . Here I will keep pn = pn-1 + 9 as the Recursive Formula, but you could use other formulation with, e.g., pn-2, pn-3, etc, using the above recursion.

Now, the explicit formula is such that gives as the value of any amount, finding all the terms of the sequence with those not depending on previous terms (contrary to the recursive). This formula was showed above and is: pn = 14 + 9*n. This is, given any number of pizzas we can find the cost without knowing the cost of previous values.

So, we have:

Recursive: pn = pn-1 + 9

Explicit: pn = 14 + 9*n

Step-by-step explanation:

The scientific notation of a number is to express the number in the form [tex]x\times 10^{y}[/tex] where x is the base of ten.

So, if we want to express the number 0.0000000065, then we can write it as

[tex]\frac{6.5}{1000000000} = 6.5 \times 10^{-9}[/tex].

So, we can write 0.0000000065 as [tex]65\times 10^{-10}[/tex] or [tex]0.65 \times 10^{-8}[/tex] but those are not the scientific notation.

Bills annual salary is 2/3 of Jen's annual salary.if bills salary is$64,000, what is Jen's salary?

Answers

Answer:

$96,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

To find Jen's annual salary, divide Bill's annual salary of $64,000 by 2/3, resulting in Jen's salary being $96,000.

Explanation:

To calculate Jen's annual salary based on the information that Bill's annual salary is 2/3 of Jen's, first express Bill's salary as a fraction of Jen's:

Let J represent Jen's annual salary.According to the problem, we have that Bill's salary equals 2/3 of Jen's, so (2/3)*J = $64,000.To find Jen's salary J, divide Bill's salary by 2/3, so J = $64,000 / (2/3).After calculation, J = $64,000 * (3/2), which simplifies to J = $96,000.

Therefore, Jen's annual salary is $96,000.

Urgent!!! Triangle ABC has angles the following angle measures. m<A=2x+7 , m<B=10x+10 and m<C=8x+23. what is the value of x and what is the measure of each angle?

x=
m<A=
m<B=
m<C=​

Answers

Answer:

The Value of x= 7.

m∠A= 21°

m∠B= 80°

m∠C= 79°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m∠A = 2x+7

m∠B = 10x+10

m∠C = 8x+23

We need to find the value of x and measures of each angle.

Now by angle sum property which states that sum of all angles of a triangle are 180°.

Hence from above statement we can say in ΔABC;

m∠A+m∠B+m∠C=180

Now substituting the given values in above equation we get;

[tex]2x+7+10x+10+8x+23=180\\2x+10x+8x+7+10+23=180\\20x+40=180\\20x=180-40\\20x=140\\\\x=\frac{140}{20} =7[/tex]

Hence value of x is 7.

Substituting the value of x in all angles we get;

m∠A=[tex]2x+7=2\times7+7=14+7=21\°[/tex]

m∠B=[tex]10x+10=10\times7+10=70+10=80\°[/tex]

m∠C=[tex]8x+23= 8\times7 +23 = 56+23=79\°[/tex]

Final answer:

To find the value of x and the measure of each angle in triangle ABC, set up an equation using the given angle measures. Solve for x and substitute it back in to find the measures of each angle. Then : m<A = 2(7) + 7 = 21 degrees

m<B = 10(7) + 10 = 80 degrees

m<C = 8(7) + 23 = 79 degrees

Explanation:

To find the value of x and the measure of each angle in triangle ABC, we need to set up an equation using the given angle measures. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, we can write the equation as:

m<A + m<B + m<C = 180

Substituting the given angle measures, we have:

(2x + 7) + (10x + 10) + (8x + 23) = 180

Simplifying the equation:

20x + 40 = 180

Subtracting 40 from both sides:

20x = 140

Dividing both sides by 20:

x = 7

Now that we know the value of x, we can find the measure of each angle by substituting x into the respective expressions:

m<A = 2(7) + 7 = 21 degrees

m<B = 10(7) + 10 = 80 degrees

m<C = 8(7) + 23 = 79 degrees

find the value for x.

Answers

Answer:  x = -13

=========================

Work Shown:

19 = 38/2

19 & 1/2 = 19 + 1/2

19 & 1/2 = 38/2 + 1/2

19 & 1/2 = (38+1)/2

19 & 1/2 = 39/2

-------

In the original equation, replace the "19 & 1/2" with "39/2" to get

(5/2)x + (1/2)x = 39/2 + (9/2)x

Each term involves a fraction with a denominator of 2. If we multiply both sides by the common denominator, then the fractions will cancel out

For example: 2*(5/2)x = (10/2)x = 5x

So after multiplying both sides by 2, you should have this new equation

5x + 1x = 39 + 9x

--------

Let's solve that latest equation for x

5x + 1x = 39 + 9x

6x = 39 + 9x

6x-9x = 39 + 9x-9x ... subtract 9x from both sides

-3x = 39

-3x/(-3) = 39/(-3) .... divide both sides by -3

how do you write six times the quantity two x plus three y with numbers??

Answers

Answer:

12x + 18y

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first write the quantity "two x plus three y", this means, that we have x and y as unknowns. x is 2 times, so we have 2x; and y is 3 times, so he have 3y:

2x + 3y

Additionally we have that this quantity is six times, what means that it is multiplied by a number 6:

6(2x +3y)

If you like, we can apply the distributive property that means that given any three numbers a, b, c we have that a(b+c)=ab + ac. In our case a is 6, b is 2x and c is 3y. Thus, operating:

6(2x +3y) = 6*2x + 6*3y = 12x + 18y

So, "six times the quantity two x plus three y" is 12x + 18y

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the y-axis and contains the point (-2,7)
A: y=-x+5
B: x=-2
C: y=x+9
D: y=7

Answers

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line which is perpendicular to the y-axis will be either x-axis or parallel to the x-axis.

Now, the general equation for all straight line which is either x-axis or parallel to x-axis are given by y = c ........... (1), where c is any constant.

For c = 0 the line will be x -axis. therefore, y = 0, is the equation of x-axis.

Now, if the line (1) passes through the point (-2, 7), then the equation will be y = 7. (Answer)  

{Since, the point (-2,7) will satisfy the equation (1) and then c will be equal to 7.}

To minimize the cost of the package:

Minimum

Answers

Final answer:

To minimize production cost, we need to find the dimensions of the package that will satisfy the volume equation and minimize the cost equation. Taking the partial derivatives of the cost equation with respect to the variables 'r' and 'h', and setting them equal to zero, we can find the critical points. Solving these equations, we find that the dimensions for the package that will minimize production cost are a height of 7 cm and a radius of 2.5 cm.

Explanation:

To find the dimensions of the package that will minimize production cost, we need to consider the cost of the sides and bottom made of styrofoam and the cost of the top made of glued paper. Let's denote the radius of the base of the cylinder as 'r' and the height of the cylinder as 'h'.

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr²h. We know that the volume of the package needs to be 350 cubic centimeters, so we can write the equation as πr²h = 350.

The cost of the sides and bottom of the container is given by the formula C1 = 0.03 * (2πrh + πr²), and the cost of the top is given by the formula C2 = 0.08 * πr².

To minimize the cost, we need to find the values of 'r' and 'h' that satisfy the volume equation and minimize the cost equation.

Since this is a calculus problem, we will differentiate the cost equation with respect to 'r' and 'h', and set the derivatives equal to zero to find the critical points.

Taking the partial derivatives of C1 and C2 with respect to 'r' and 'h', we get:

∂C1/∂r = 0.03 * (2πh + 2πr) = 0∂C1/∂h = 0.03 * (2πr) = 0∂C2/∂r = 0.08 * (2πr) = 0∂C2/∂h = 0

Solving these equations, we find that h = 7 cm and r = 2.5 cm. Therefore, the dimensions for the package that will minimize production cost are a height of 7 cm and a radius of 2.5 cm.

Read the following excerpt from Walden by Henry Thoreau and then choose your answer.Most of the luxuries, and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind. With respect to luxuries and comforts, the wisest have ever lived a more simple and meagre life than the poor. The ancient philosophers, Chinese, Hindoo, Persian, and Greek, were a class than which none has been poorer in outward riches, none so rich in inward. We know not much about them. It is remarkable that we know so much of them as we do. The same is true of the more modern reformers and benefactors of their race. None can be an impartial or wise observer of human life but from the vantage ground of what we should call voluntary poverty. Of a life of luxury the fruit is luxury, whether in agriculture, or commerce, or literature, or art. There are nowadays professors of philosophy, but not philosophers. Yet it is admirable to profess because it was once admirable to live. To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but so to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity, and trust.Which of the following best states the author's claim?a) Only through embracing luxury can humans reach the pinnacle of self-awareness.b) Mankind must strive to accumulate luxuries and comforts during the journey toward personal fulfillment.c) The outcome of a life of luxury is most certainly personal growth and contentment.d) Beware the pursuit of luxury as it will surely barricade the path that leads to self-awareness. 12.8 rounded to the nearest whole number Among the following choices, an operations manager might best evaluate political risk of a country by looking at which type of country ranking? a. based on magnitude of government social programs b. based on corruption based on competitiveness c. based on cost of doing business d. based on average duration between presidential/prime minister elections Austin has two Marvel posters he wants to hang on the wall in his bedroom.
