Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: No, they aren't. If you look at 5 and multiply (distribute) it to <u>negative</u> three you will end up with -15. And 15 is not equal to negative 15.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

  sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

4 + 7 = 11 . . . not a multiple of 7

28 + 7 = 35 . . . a multiple of 7

If you add a multiple of 4 and a multiple of 7, the sum is <u>sometimes</u> a multiple of 7.

__

It will be a multiple of 7 when the multiple of 4 used is a multiple of 7, such as 4×7 or 4×14 or 4×21, for example.

The diagonal of a TV set is 13 inches long. It’s length is 7 inches more than the height. Find the dimensions of the TV set.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: The length is 12 inches while the height is 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation: It the Television has a diagonal of 13 inches, and a height of H inches, then the length would be (H + 7) inches. It’s length is 7 inches more than the height. At this point we can draw up a right angled triangle with the hypotenuse as 13 (diagonal side) and the other two sides as H and (H + 7)

Then we can apply the Pythagoras theorem which states that

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

(Where AC is the hypotenuse and AB and BC are the two other sides)

Hence,

13^2 = H^2 + (H + 7)^2

169 = H^2 + (H^2 + 14H + 49)

169 = 2H^2 + 14H + 49

By collecting like terms we now have

169 - 49 = 2H^2 + 14H

120 = 2H^2 + 14H

By re-arranging all terms on one side of the equation, we arrive at

2H^2 + 14H - 120 = 0

Divide all sides by 2

H^2 + 7H - 60 = 0

To solve the quadratic equation, we now factorize and we have,

H^2 + 12H - 5H - 60 = 0

(H + 12) (H - 5) = 0

Therefore

Either H + 12 = 0 OR

H - 5 = 0

Hence, Either H = -12 or H = 5

The dimension can not be a negative value so we shall take h equals 5.

Having calculated the height of the television as 5 inches, the length which was given as H + 7 can now be calculated as

Length = H + 7

Length = 5 + 7

Length = 12

Therefore, the length of the Television is 12 inches and the height is 5 inches

In 1-5, given: Two similar cylinders with heights of 8 and 5 respectively.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

1. The ratio of their diameters is 8/5 = 8 : 5

2. The ratio of their surface area is (8/5)²

3. The ratio of their volume is (8/5)³

4.The area of the base of the larger cylinder is 128 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two cylinders are similar, we have;

Two cylinders are similar when the ratio of their heights is equal to the ratio of their radii

Therefore, we have;

1. The ratio of the height of the two cylinders = 8/5 = The radio of their radii = r₁/r₂

The ratio of their diameter = D₁/D₂ = 2·r₁/2·r₂ = r₁/r₂ = 8/5

The ratio of their diameters D₁/D₂ = 8/5 = 8 : 5

2. The surface area of the cylinders = 2·π·r·h + 2·π·r²

Therefore, we have;

(2·π·r₁·h₁ + 2·π·r₁²)/(2·π·r₂·h₂ + 2·π·r₂²) = (r₁·h₁ + r₁²)/(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)

h₁ = h₂ × 8/5

r₁ = r₂ × 8/5

= (8/5)²(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)/(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)  = (8/5)²

The ratio of their surface area = (8/5)²

3. The volume of the cylinder = π·r²·h

∴ The ratio of the volume = (π·r₁²·h₁)/(π·r₂²·h₂) = (8/5)³ × (π·r₂²·h₂)/(π·r₂²·h₂) = (8/5)³

The ratio of their volume = (8/5)³

4. The ratio of the area of the base of the larger cylinder to the area of the base of the smaller cylinder is (8/5)²

Therefore if the area of the base of the smaller cylinder is 50 cm², the area of the base of the larger cylinder = 50 cm² × (8/5)²  = 128 cm²
