monica sells lemonade over the summer and uses conical paper cups to serve the lemonade. Each cup is 8 centimeters tall.She star

ts with a 10 gallon container(one gallon equivalent to 3785 cm3). part A: determine how many paper cups are needed to empty the entire 10 gallon cooler. Part B: if the conical cups are sold in packages of 50, how many packages are needed to be bought?

Answer:

(a)205

(b)5 Packages

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{One gallon is equivalent to 3785 } cm^3$

Therefore: $\text{10 gallon= 3785X 10 =37850 } cm^3$

Therefore, Volume of the lemonade Monica Started with is $\text{37850 } cm^3$

The diameter of the cup =8cm

Therefore, Radius =8/2 =4cm

Height of the Cup =11cm

Volume of a Cone= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

$\text{Volume of the Cup}=\frac{1}{3}\pi *4^2*11 \\=184.31cm^3$

The number of cups needed to empty the 10 gallon cooler =37850÷184.31

=205.36

$\approx 205$ Cups

(b)If the Cups are sold in packages of 50

Number of Package to be bought =205 ÷ 50 =4.1

She would need to buy 5 packages.

Alex is standing 60 feet from the base of a flagpole. He measures the angle of elevation to the top of the pole as 35º. Vera is

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

49.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangle AXY,

$Tan 35^0=\frac{|XY|}{60} \\|XY|=60*Tan 35^0=42.01\:feet\\$Therefore, Height of the pole=42.01 \:feet$

We want to determine the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole, which is the angle at V in the diagram.

In Triangle XVY

|VY|=36 feet

$Tan \theta=\frac{|XY|}{|VY|} \\Tan \theta=\frac{42.01}{36}\\ \theta=arctan(\frac{42.01}{36})\\ \theta=49.4^0$

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole is 49.4 degree to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Solve: x2 − x − 6/x2 = x − 6/2x + 2x + 12/x After multiplying each side of the equation by the LCD and simplifying, the resultin

Vesna [10]

The resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

According to the given question.

We have an equation

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x-6}{2x} +\frac{2x+12}{x}$

So, to find the resulting equation of the above equation we need to simplify.

First we will take LCD

$\frac{x^{2} -x - 6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x -6+2(2x + 12)}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } =\frac{x-6+4x+24}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{5x +18}{2x}$

Multiply both the sides by x.

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x} = \frac{5x+18}{2}$

Again multiply both the sides by x

$2x^{2} -2x-12 = 5x^{2} +18x$

$\implies 5x^{2} -2x^{2} +18x +2x +12 = 0$

$\implies 3x^{2} + 18x+2x + 12 = 0$

Factorize the above equation

⇒3x(x+6)+2(x+6) = 0

⇒(3x + 2)(x+6) = 0

⇒ x = -2/3 or x = -6

Hence, the resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

If x is a rational number and y is the opposite of x, why do x and y have the same absolute value

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Absolute value is the distance away from zero, so if x is a rational number and y is opposite, they would both be the same distance away from zero, regardless of their sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is the distance of a number away from zero. For example, if x is equal to the rational number -2, the absolute value of -2 is just 2, given that both 2 and -2 are only a distance of 2 away from the number zero. Think of it as your walk or drive to school. If you live 4 miles from school, you drive a distance of 4 miles there and 4 miles back. That distance is not calculated as a positive 4 miles there and a negative 4 miles back, but rather just 4 miles there and 4 miles back, for a total distance of 8 miles. So, if x=4 and y=(-4), the absolute value of both would be 4.
