Lateral area of the cone is given by:
LA=πr√(h²+r²)
where:
h=height
r=radius
Given that LA=287.5 yd² and r=(15/2) yds, then the height will be:
287.5=7.5π√(h²+7.5²)
solving for h we get:
(287.5/7.5π)²=h²+7.5²
thus
h²=(287.5/7.5π)²-7.5²
h²=63.1851597
 To get the slant height we use Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
a²=h², b²=7.5²
thus
c²=h²+7.5²
c²=63.1851597+56.25
c²=119.4351597
c=10.92864~10.9 yards

Whats the common ratio of the sequence 7.04 Q14​
julsineya [31]

Answer:

\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence.

We can find the common ratio using any two consecutive terms of the sequence.

r=\frac{\frac{-1}{10} }{\frac{x-2}{5} }=\frac{-1}{10}\times \frac{-5}{2}=\frac{1}{4}

The common ratio is \frac{1}{4}

I just want to make sure: A baseball is traveling (+20 m/s) and is hit by a bat. It leaves the bat traveling (-30 m/s). What is
g100num [7]

Answer:

50m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We assum the direction the baseball is travelling to the bat is the positive direction at 20 m/s and is hit in the opposite at a faster speed. The change in velocity is the final velocity minus the initial velocity:

=20-(-30)=50

The change in velocity is 50m/s

What is the sum of the angle measures in a 16-gon
madreJ [45]

It says to find the sum of the angle measures in a 16-gon.

We have a formula to find the sum of interior angles of polygon with 'n' sides.

Sum = (n-2)·180°

Here the value of n would be 16 for a 16-gon.

So, sum = (16-2) × 180° = 14 × 180° = 2520°

Hence, the sum of the angle measures in a 16-gon is 2520°
