Derek is planning on covering an entire drum in leather. The diameter of the drum is 10 inches, and the height of the drum is 16
fredd [130]

Answer: 694.4 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a cylinder with:

diameter = d = 10 inches

heigth = h = 16 inches.

The total surface of a cylinder is equal to:

S = h*2*pi*(d/2) + 2*pi*(d/2)^2

we can replace the numbers and get:

S = 16*2*3.14*(10/2) + 2*3.14*(10/2)^2 = 659.4 inches squared

The volume of a cube is the cube of the length of a side. If a side is S, the volume is S^3. What is the volume of a cube with s
sergij07 [2.7K]

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The volume of the cube with side length of 4 inches is 64 inches³.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Given the volume of a cube is the cube of the length of a side. If a side is S, the volume is S^3. Therefore, the volume of cube with side 4 inches will be,

Volume of the cube = (4 in)³ = 64 in³

Hence, the volume of the cube with side length of 4 inches is 64 inches³.

What is a correct first step in solving the inequality –4(3 – 5x)≥ –6x + 9?
Maksim231197 [3]
Hello,
 the first step should be to distribue:
-4(3-5x)= -12+20x

Teh resolution may be:

-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>-12+20x>=-6x+9
==>20x+6x>=9+12
==>26x>21
==>x>=21/26

But an other way may be used:

-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>3-5x<= -6x/(-4)+9/(-4)
==>-5x-3/2 x<=-9/4 -3

==>-13/2 x <=-21/4

==>x>= -21/4 *(-2/13)
==>x>=21/(2*13)
==>x>=21/26
