Let the first number be "x", and the 2nd number (which is twice as large as the other), be 2x.

Set the equation

2x + x = 36

Simplify. Combine like terms

(2x + x) = 36

3x = 36

Isolate the x. Divide 3 from both sides

(3x)/3 = (36)/3

x = 36/3

x = 12

The first number is 12

The second number is 2x. Replace x with 12. Multiply.

2x = 2(12) = 24

The second number is 24

Check: 12 + 24 = 36 (True)

Answer: 12 & 24

Find the volume of th] cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. Use 3.14 for 1.
spayn [35]

Answer:197.8

The formula for a cylinder is 3.14*r^2*h but if you don't round to the nearest tenth the the answer is 197.82034.

Step-by-step explanation:Step one mutiply 3^2=9, Step two mutiply 3.14*

9=28.26, Step three mutiply 28.26*7=197.82.But if you round 197.82034 to the nearest tenth which is moving one decimal place to the right you'll will get 197.8.
