Since ΔCDE is isosceles with base angles D and E equal then sides

CE = CD , hence

16x - 27 = 4x + 9 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

12x - 27 = 9 ( add 27 to both sides )

12x = 36 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 3

substitute x = 3 into the expressions for the sides

CD = (4 × 3 ) + 9 = 12 + 9 = 21

DE = (7 × 3 ) - 5 = 21 - 5 = 16

CE = (16 × 3 ) - 27 = 48 - 27 = 21

note that CE = CD

5. Find the surface area of the cone. Round to the nearest hundredth. 2 ft 6 ft

den301095 [7]

Answer:

$52.3m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use these formulas

$A=\pi rl+\pi r^2\\l=\sqrt{r^2+h^2}$

Now solve

$A=\pi r(r+\sqrt{h^2+r^2} )\\=\pi *2*(2\sqrt{6^2+2^2} )\\=52.3m^2$

The diameter of a circle is 2 centimeters. What is the circle's circumference?

leonid [27]

C=6.28cm
because C=2pi•r
so in this case C=2•3.14•1
which is C=2•3.14
and that leads to C=6.28cm

hope this helped

what is the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube

Dmitrij [34]

Let the least possible value of the smallest of 99 cosecutive integers be x and let the number whose cube is the sum be p, then

$\frac{99}{2} (2x+98)=p^3 \\ \\ 99x+4,851=p^3\\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{p^3-4,851}{99}$

By substitution, we have that $p=33$ and $x=314$ .

Therefore, the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube is 314.
