Raymond built a “rocket" made from a cylinder and a cone. He filled the rocket
1 answer:
Answer:
Rocket can hold maximum 4.5 gallons of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the rocket = Volume of the cone on the top + Volume of the cylinder at the bottom
Volume of the cone =
Here r = radius of the circular base
h = height of the cone
Volume =
= cubic inch
Volume of the cylinder =
Here r = radius of the base
h = height of the cylinder
Volume =
= 256π cubic inches
Volume of the rocket =
=
= 1038.82 cubic inches
Since 231 cubic inches volume of a rocket can hold water = 1 gallon
Therefore, 1038.82 cubic inches space can hold water
=
= 4.497
≈ 4.5 gallons
Rocket can hold 4.5 gallons of water.

Given:
The scale factor is and the center of dilation is at the point (4,2).
Red is original figure and green is dilated figure.
To find:
The coordinates of point C' and point A.
Solution:
Rule of dilation: If a figure is dilated with a scale factor k and the center of dilation is at the point (a,b), then
According to the given information, the scale factor is and the center of dilation is at (4,2).
...(i)
Let us assume the vertices of red triangle are A(m,n), B(10,14) and C(-2,11).
Using (i), we get
Therefore, the coordinates of Point C' are C'(2,5).
We assumed that point A is A(m,n).
Using (i), we get
From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is (8,4).
On comparing both sides, we get
And,
Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (16,8).
