Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 16| less than/equal to 4

Means x can be between;

-4+16 and 4+16, i.e [12,20]

|y - 6| less than/equal to 2

Means x can be between,

-2+6 and 2+6, i.e [4,8]

x - y would be greatest when x is greatest and y is least:

20 - 4 = 16

Step-by-step explanation: Since y represents minutes, replace it with 9...

-380 + 15(9)

-380 + 135

-245

Since it’s negative, the submarine is still below sea level.

A closed cylindrical tank of radius 1.50m and height 300cm, is made from a metal sheet. How much sheet is required?
Anika [276]

Answer: 13.5π≈42.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically it is asking for the circumference of this cylinder.

#1 Find the circumference of the circle base

Formula to use: 2πr

2πr=2π(1.5)=3π

---------------------------

#2 Find the area of the circle base

Formula to use: πr²

πr²=π(1.5)²=2.25π

--------------------------

#3 Find the area of body of the cylinder

Formula to use: lw

300cm=3m

l (length)= 3π (since the body of the cylinder the basing on the circumference of the circle base)

w (width)= 3

lw=3π×3m=9π

----------------------------

#4 Add all of them together

There are 2 base and one body

2.25π×2+9π=13.5π
