An employee at a fireworks company is designing a rocket. The rocket will consist of a cardboard circular cylinder with a height

that is seven times as large as the radius. On top of the cylinder will be a cone with a height of 5 in. and a radius equal to the radius of the base as shown in the figure. If the company wants to fill the cone and the cylinder with a total of 204 in.^3 of​ powder, then what should be the radius of the​ cylinder? Note that the volume of a right circular cylinder with radius r and height h is and the volume of a cone with a base of radius r and height h is .

The radius of the cylinder should be approximately 2.040 inches long.

<h3>How to calculate the radius of a rocket to contain a required quantity of powder</h3>

The volume required to store the powder is the sum of the volumes of the cylinder and the cone, whose expression is in this case:

204 in³ = (π/3) · r² · (4 in) + π · r² · h

204 in³ = (4/3 + h) · π · r²

204 in³ = (4/3 + 7 · r) · π · r²

204 = (4π/3) · r² + 7π · r³

7π · r³ + (4π/3) · r² - 204 = 0

The <em>positive</em> roots of the <em>cubic</em> equation are:  

r ≈ 2.040 in

The radius of the cylinder should be approximately 2.040 inches long.

Answer:

L*W

Step-by-step explanation:

As we Know tha area of a rectangle is Leght*witdth so in this case will be L*W but lets prove it by calculating the integral:

Area= L*W= \int\limits^w_0 F{x} \, dx =\int\limits^w_0 L*w({x}) \, dx

So as the integral of a constant is the constant multiplied by the integration variable x.

The integral becomes: L*W(x) where W(x) in this case is W= L*W

Good luck!

You need to decide whether to hire three landscapers or hire just two but buy a faster mower; both options will deliver the same
Westkost [7]

Answer:

I think buying a new mower will be a much more financial sound decision because it can last 3 years, however, if you hire landscapers it will cost significantly much more money than buying a new mower.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason for this is that:

$18×2000 hours= $36,000 each year

For three years: $36,000×3=$108,000

which is more than $8,000

Hence, buying a new mower would be the better solution.

the local store is having a sale on ground beef- $10 for 3 pounds. sylvia needs 12 pounds of meat to make 50 hamburgers. how muc
Rashid [163]
10/3 = x / 12.....$ 10 to 3 lbs = $ x to 12 lbs
cross multiply
3x = 120
x = 120/3
x = 40....so it is gonna cost Sylvia $ 40 for the meat.

she plans on making 50 burgers......40 ($ worth of meat) / 50 (burgers)  = 
0.8....so for each burger, the meat will cost 0.80 or 80 cents <==
