The actual height of the heart is 3.5 inches

14 * .25 = 3.5 inches

I hope this helps :)

given the two points (-24,7) and (30,25) a. What is an equation passing through the points? b. Is (51, 33) also on the same line

kicyunya [14]

Part 1) Given the two points (-24,7) and (30,25) a. What is an equation passing through the points?

step 1
find the slope m
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)---->m=(25-7)/(30+24)----> m=18/54----> m=1/3

step 2
wit m=1/3 and the point (30,25)
find the equation of the line
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-25=(1/3)*(x-30)--->y=(1/3)*x-10+25
y=(1/3)*x+15

the answer Part 1) is
y=(1/3)*x+15

Part 2) Is (51, 33) also on the same line?
if the point (51.33) is on the line y=(1/3)*x+15
then
for x=51 the value of y must be 33
for x=51
y=(1/3)*51+15----> y=17+15----> y=32
32 is not 33
so
the point does not belong to the given line

the answer Part 2) is
the point does not belong to the given line

Using the given information write the equation of parabolas:

lana [24]

The general form of the equation we need to find is (x - h)^2 = 4p(y- k).

The center is the distance between the directrix and focus.

So, center (h, k) = (3, 3/2) .

P = distance from center to the focus and it just so happens to be 1.5.

We now plug everything into the formula given above.

(x - 3)^2 = 4(1.5)(y - 3/2)

(x - 3)^2 = 6(y - 3/2)

Done!

find the surface areas of the larger cone and the smaller cone in terms of pi. compare the surface areas using a percent. (the m

serious [3.7K]

ANSWER :

Surface area of larger cone : 24π units^2

Surface area of smaller cone : 6π units^2

The surface area of the smaller cone is 25% of that of the larger cone.

EXPLANATION :

From the given problem,

AB = 3 is the radius of the larger cone and the slanted height is BC = 5

DE = 1.5 is the radius of the smaller cone and the slanted height is EC = 2.5

Recall the surface area of the cone :

$A=\pi r^2+\pi rL$

where r = radius and L = slanted height.

For the larger cone, r = 3 and L = 5

$\begin{gathered} A=\pi(3)^2+\pi(3)(5) \\ A=24\pi \end{gathered}$

For the smaller cone, r = 1.5 and L = 2.5

$\begin{gathered} A=\pi(1.5)^2+\pi(1.5)(2.5) \\ A=6\pi \end{gathered}$

Comparing the surface areas :

The area of the smaller cone compared to the larger cone is :

$\begin{gathered} \frac{smaller}{larger}\times100=\frac{6\pi}{24\pi}\times100 \\ \\ =25\% \end{gathered}$
