By the geometric mean theorem,

$\frac{y}{4}=\frac{12}{y} \\ \\ y^{2}=48 \\ \\ \boxed{y=4\sqrt{3}}$

So, by the Pythagorean theorem,

$12^{2}+(4\sqrt{3})^{2}=x^{2}\\\\144+48=x^{2}\\\\192=x^{2}\\\\\boxed{x=8\sqrt{3}}$

A silo is not the shape of a cone. The silo is 8 meters tall and it's base has a diameter of 3 meters. Soybeans cost $414 per cu

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$7803.72

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a silo is in the shape of a cone. The silo is 8 meters tall and it's base has a diameter of 3 meters. Soybeans cost $414 per cubic meter. We are asked to find the total cost to fill the silo with soybeans.

First of all, we will find the volume of silo using volume of cone formula.

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$ , where,

r = radius

h = Height

We know that radius is half the diameter, so radius of silo would be $r=\frac{3}{2}=1.5$ .

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi (1.5\text{ m})^2 (8)\text{ m}$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi\times 2.25\text{ m}^2 (8)\text{ m}$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\pi\times 0.75\text{ m}^2 (8)\text{ m}$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\pi\times 6\text{ m}^3$

$\text{Volume of cone}=18.8495559\text{ m}^3$

Now we will multiply total volume by $414 to find total cost.\

$\text{Total cost of soybeans}=\$414 \times 18.8495559$

$\text{Total cost of soybeans}=\$7803.7161426$

$\text{Total cost of soybeans}\approx \$7803.72$

Therefore, it will cost $7803.72 to fill the silo with soybeans.

In one month a store had 1,222 in sales but expenses were 2,345 how much money did the store lose in that month

dangina [55]

We simply need to subtract 1,222 from 2,345. Once we do that we get 1,223. Hope that helps! :)

Answer:

$x=-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $y=2x^2+28x+96$ . We are asked to find the zeros of equation by factoring and then find the line of symmetry of the parabola.
