Refer to the diagram shown below.
BE = 2x² - x
DE = x² + 6

The intersecting diagonals bisect one another.
Therefore BE = DE, so that
2x² - x = x² + 6
x² - x - 6 = 0
Factorize.
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0
x = -2, or x = 3.

When x = -2,
BE = 2(-2)² - (-2) = 10
DE = (-2)² + 6 = 10
Therefore BD = 20

When x = 3;
BE = 2(3²) - 3 = 15
DE = 3² + 6 = 15
Therefore BD = 30

Answer: Either 20 or 30.

horsena [70]
<span>Ned scored 2p+3. Tony scored 3 points more than Ned, so Tony scored 3+2p+3, or 2p+6. Matt scored twice as many points as Tony, so Matt scored 2(2p+6), or 4p+12. Juan scored 8 fewer points than Ned, so Juan scored 2p+3-8, or 2p-5. To simplify, we add these four values. 2p + 3 2p + 6 4p + 12 2p - 5 This equals 10p + 16.</span>

Compare the two figures. How many times bigger or smaller is the cone to
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The proportion of the volume of the cone to the volume of the pyramid is: 3.14 times bigger.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the information of the cone: </u>

  • The height: 12 inches
  • The radius of the base is : 10/2= 5 inches

=> the volume of the cone

= 1/3πr^{2} *h

= 1/3*3.14*5^{2} *12

= 314 cubic inches

<u>Given the information of the pyramid: </u>

  • the height: 12 inches
  • The base is a suqare with a side lengh = 5 inches  

=> the volume of the pyramid:

= 1/3*Bh            (where B is the area of the base)

= 1/3*5*5*12

= 100 cubic inches

<u>The proportion of the volume of the cone to the volume of the pyramid is: </u>

= 314 /100

= 3.14 times bigger.

Hope it will find you well

2.5 sales tax of $19.6 is $0.49

Adding those two, the total comes to 20.09 which is just over budget
