Answer:

We have a cylinder and two semispheres.

The volume of a cylinder is equal to:

Vc =h*pi*r^2

where h is the height, r is the radius, and pi = 3.14

We know that the diameter is d = 8.4 mm, and the radius is half of that:

r = 8.4mm/2 = 4.2mm

Then the volume of the cylinder is:

Vc = 15.2mm*3.14*(4.2mm)^2 = 841.9 mm^3

The volume of a sphere is:

Vs = (3/4)*pi*r^3

The radius of the sphere is the same as the radius of the cylinder, and for a semisphere, we have half of the volume written above,

Vss = (3/8)*3.14*(4.2mm)^2 = 87.2mm^3

and we have two of those, so the total volume is:

Vt = 841.9 mm^3 + 2*87.2mm^3 = 1016.3 mm^3

The surface area of the figure is equal to the curved surface of the cylinder plus the surface of the two semispheres.

The curved surface of the cylinder is:

Sc = 2*pi*r*h = 2*3.14*4.2mm*15.2mm = 400.9 mm^2

The surface of a sphere is:

Ss = 4*pi*r^2

and for each semisphere, we can find the surface by dividing the previous equation by two, but we have two semispheres, so we can jump a step and think the two semispheres as only one sphere.

Ss = 4*3.14*(4.2mm)^2 = 221.6mm^2

The total surface is St = 221.6mm^2 + 400.9 mm^2 = 622.5 mm^2

Consider the quadratic equations

Debora [2.8K]

Consider the two functions as
<span>y1(x) =3x^2 - 5x,
y2(x) = 2x^2 - x - c

The higher the value of c, father apart the two equations will be.
They will touch when the difference, i.e. y1(x)-y2(x)=x^2-4*x+c has a discriminant of 0.
This happens when D=((-4)^2-4c)=0, or when c=4.
(a)
So when c=4, the two equations will barely touch, giving a single solution, or coincident roots.
(b)
when c is greater than 4, the two curves are farther apart, thus there will be no (real) solution.
(c)
when c<4, then the two curves will cross at more than one location, giving two distinct solutions.

It will be more obvious if you plot the two curves in a graphics calculator using c=3,4, and 5.

Write the equation in slope intercept form with a slope of 3/4 and passes through (-4,-5)

attashe74 [19]

Answer:Use the slope −2 and the point (−4,−5) to find the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

⇒−5=(−2×−4)+b

⇒−5=8+b

⇒b=−13

Write the equation in slope intercept form as:

y=mx+b

⇒y=(−2)x−13

Hence, the equation of the line is y=−2x−13.

What is f(3)??????????

AURORKA [14]

<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>

Meaning of f(a)

f(a) means the value of f(x) is ... when x = a. That means if we substitute x = 3, we would get f(3).

f(3) also means the value of f(x) is ... when x = 3.

f(x) can also be defined as y // f(x) = y

Find f(3) by graph.

You can find the value of f(x) at specific domain from the graph by looking at x = 3 then look up to where the point or where the graph passes. From the graph, when x = 3 as we look up and the graph passes y-coordinate at 1.

Therefore we can say that when x = 3, y = 1.

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

f(3) = 1

What is the area of the shape below

Bad White [126]

Answer:

The area of the shape is $A=886 \:cm^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape in the graph is a composite figure is made up of several simple geometric figures such as triangles, and rectangles.

Area is the space inside of a two-dimensional shape. We can also think of area as the amount of space a shape covers.

To calculate the area of a composite shape you must divide the shape into rectangles, triangles or other shapes you can find the area of and then add the areas back together.

First separate the composite shape into three simpler shapes, in this case two rectangles and a triangle. Then find the area of each figure.

To find the area of a rectangle, we multiply the length of the rectangle by the width of the rectangle.

The area of the first rectangle is $A=34\cdot 16=544\:cm^2$

The area of the second rectangle is $A=11\cdot19=209\: cm^2$

The area of a triangle is given by the formula $A=\frac{1}{2} bh$ where <em>b</em> is the base and <em>h</em> is the height of the triangle.

The area of the triangle is $A=\frac{1}{2} \cdot 14\cdot19=133\:cm^2$

Finally, add the areas of the simpler figures together to find the total area of the composite figure.

$A_{composite\:shape}=544+209+133=886 \:cm^2$
