A conical container can hold 120π cubic centimeters of water. The diameter of the base of the container is 12 centimeters.
Tanzania [10]

Answer: The height of the container is 10 centimeters. If its diameter and height were both doubled, the container's capacity would be 8 times its original capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone can be calculated with this formula:

V=\frac{\pi r^2h}{3}

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

We know that the radius is half the diameter. Then:

r=\frac{12cm}{2}=6cm

We know the volume and the radius of the conical container, then we can find "h":

120\pi cm^3=\frac{\pi (6cm)^2h}{3}\\\\(3)(120\pi cm^3)=\pi (6cm)^2h\\\\h=\frac{3(120\pi cm^3)}{\pi (6cm)^2}\\\\h=10cm

The diameter and height doubled are:

d=12cm*2=24cm\\h=10cm*2=20cm

Now the radius is:

r=\frac{24cm}{2}=12cm

And the container capacity is

V=\frac{\pi (12cm)^2(20cm)}{3}=960\pi cm^3

Then, to compare the capacities, we can divide this new capacity by the original:

 \frac{960\pi cm^3}{120\pi cm^3}=8

Therefore,  the container's capacity would be 8 times its original capacity.

How many solutions are there to the equation below?<br><br> 12x+6=5x
slavikrds [6]

Answer:  There is one solution to the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the number of solutions to the following equation :

12x+6=5x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Since the given equation is linear in one variable x, so it will have only one solution.

The solution of equation (i) is given by

12x+6=5x\\\\\Rightarrow 12x-5x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{6}{7}.

Thus, there is one solution to the given equation.
