Answer:

m∠A = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary Angles add up to 90°

Step 1: Set up equation

8x + 20 + 7x - 5 = 90

Step 2: Solve for x

15x + 15 = 90

15x = 75

x = 5

Step 3: Find m∠A

m∠A = 8x + 20

m∠A = 8(5) + 20

m∠A = 40 + 20

m∠A = 60°

A closed can, in a shape of a circular, is to contain 500cm^3 of liquid when full. The cylinder, radius r cm and height h cm, is

Gemiola [76]

To express the height as a function of the volume and the radius, we are going to use the volume formula for a cylinder: $V= \pi r^2h$
where
$V$ is the volume
$r$ is the radius
$h$ is the height

We know for our problem that the cylindrical can is to contain 500cm^3 when full, so the volume of our cylinder is 500cm^3. In other words: $V=500cm^3$ . We also know that the radius is r cm and height is h cm, so $r=rcm$ and $h=hcm$ . Lets replace the values in our formula:
$V= \pi r^2h$
$500cm^3= \pi (rcm^2)(hcm)$
$500cm^3=h \pi r^2cm^3$
$h= \frac{500cm^3}{ \pi r^2cm^3}$
$h= \frac{500}{ \pi r^2}$

Next, we are going to use the formula for the area of a cylinder: $A=2 \pi rh+2 \pi r^2$
where
$A$ is the area
$r$ is the radius
$h$ is the height

We know from our previous calculation that $h= \frac{500}{ \pi r^2}$ , so lets replace that value in our area formula:
$A=2 \pi rh+2 \pi r^2$
$A=2 \pi r(\frac{500}{ \pi r^2})+2 \pi r^2$
$A= \frac{1000}{r} +2 \pi r^2$
By the commutative property of addition, we can conclude that:
$A=2 \pi r^2+\frac{1000}{r}$

Solve using the quadratic formula 2x^2 + 7x - 15 = 0

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

1.5 or -5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²+7x-15=0

Divide by 2:

x²+7x/2-15/2=0

x=-7/2/2 ± √49/4(4)+15/2

=-7/4 ± √49/16+120/16

=-7/4± √169/16=-7/4 ±13/4

=6/4 or -20/4

=1.5 or -5

levacccp [35]

Answer:

5 out of 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are seven days in one week. They are asking what is the probability of the person chosen not being born in a Tuesday or Wednesday. There are five other days, so there are five other options.

I hope I helped you!
