Total volume = Volume of Sphere + Volume of Cylinder
16 = (4/3)πr³ + πr²h
Express h in terms of r:
πr²h = 16 - (4/3)πr³
h = 16/πr² - (4/3)r

Next, let's solve for surface area:

Total Surface Area = SA of sphere + SA of cylinder
A = 4πr² + 2πrh
Substitute the expression for h:
A = 4πr² + 2πr[16/πr² - (4/3)r]
A = 4πr² + 32/r - (8/3)πr²

Find the derivative of A with respect to r and equate to zero.

dA/dr = 8πr - 32r⁻² - (16/3)πr = 0
Solve for r:
[(8/3)πr - 32/r² = 0]*r²
(8/3)πr³ - 32 = 0
r³ = 32*3/8π = 12/π
r = ∛(12/π)
<em>r = 1.56 inches</em>

A line represented by y = 2x − 3 and a line perpendicular to it intersect at R(2, 1). What is the equation of the perpendicular
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

y = -1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x - 3. The slope here is 2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, just flip the slope and change the sign.

slope = 2 or 2/1.....flip it.....1/2....change the sign...-1/2. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1/2.

y = mx + b

slope(m) = - 1/2

(2,1)....x = 2 and y = 1

now we sub and find b, the y intercept

1 = -1/2(2) + b

1 = -1 + b

1 + 1 = b

2 = b

so ur equation is : y = -1/2x + 2 <===

and u can check it with ur points....(2,1)

y = 2x - 3

1 = 2(2) - 3

1 = 4 - 3

1 = 1 (yep...it checks out)

The graph of the function f(x) =x^2 is shown on the grid below. Graph the function g(x) =(x-2)^2 -4 in the interactive graph.
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

shift it down by 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

by the placement of the -4 it can be determined that you would shift it according to the y axis

The formula a(x-h)^2 + k = y

h represents change in x, k represents change in y

-k means shift down

An Equilateral Triangle has sides that all measure 10 inches. What is
densk [106]

Answer:

easy peasy lemon squeasy

Step-by-step explanation:

1. base of triangle: it is an equilateral triangle, so any side of the triangle you take is the base, (usually the largest side of the triangle is the base)

so that would be => 10 inches,

2. a property of an equilateral triangle is that , the median of the triangle coincides with the height of the triangle,

therefore, the height bisects the base and makes a right triangle with another side, therefore by using the Pythagoras theorem, we find it to be 8.66(approx)

now,

area of the triangle would be (putting the values we just found in the formula given)

=> [(10)(8.66)]/ 2

=>43.3 square inches
