Answer: 15(6x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation: Jamar had a great start, by figuring out the factors of both 90 and 15; of which he picked 15.

What he got wrong was failing to do same to the value 15 exactly what he did to 90x.

To put it right, here is how to go about it:

90x - 15

Factor of both 90 and 15 is 15

Therefore:

15 (6x - 1)

This is correct. You can as well expand the result to check.

What is the best approximation of the volume of the right cone?
zalisa [80]
Formula:

V = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h

Plug in what we know:

V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 3^2 * 4

V = 37.68cm^3

So the volume is 37.68cm^3 which rounds to 37.7cm^3.

Round the fraction 7 4/5 to the nearest whole number
Over [174]
Im not sure if you are saying 74/5 or 7 and 4 fifths but in the case you'r saying 74/5 you would first round to see the highest number that 5 can go to without being a decimal. Which would be 70 so you would count how many times 5 can go into 70, which would be 14, so the left over is 4/5 so you would check to see if it can be simplified which it can't so the final answer is 14 and 4/5
