Short answer: 98
Remark

when you have an average of 71, it's like saying that you took 4 quizzes and got 71 on all of them. 
Step One
Find the total point count for the 4 quizzes.
T_4 = 71 * 4 = 284

Step Two
Create an equation that will give you the necessary point count to average 86.

284 + 5*x = 86 * 9
Why did we do this? It is because you have 9 quizzes altogether. All nine must be something that gives a point count of 86 on each quiz.  You have to put together 9 such quizzes with a total count of 774.

Step three 
Solve the equation.
284 + 5x = 774  Subtract 284 from both sides.
5x = 774 - 284
5x = 490   Divide by 5
x = 490/5
x = 98

You must get an average of 98 on the next 5 quizzes

If f(x) = 4x^2 and g(x) = x+1, find (f.g)(x).
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

4x^3 + 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x^2

g(x) = x + 1

=> (f.g)(x) = 4x^2*(x + 1) = 4x^3 + 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Read the values from the graph in the usual way: find the x-coordinate, then locate the point on the graph and find its y-coordinate.

You find the y-coordinate by following the horizontal line to the y-axis, where the numbers are.

A cone of radius 10 cm and height 16 cm is divided into two parts by a plane through the midpoint of its
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The ratio of their volumes (the top to bottom half) is 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The radius, r, of the cone = 10 cm

The height of the cone = 16 cm

The point at which the cone is divided = The midpoint of the its axis and parallel to its base

The ratio of the of the volume of the two parts is given as follows;

The volume, V of the entire cone = 1/3 × Base area (π·r²) × Height, h

Therefore;

V = 1/3 × π × 10² × 16 =1600·π/3 =  1675.52 cm³

The height at which the cone is divided = 16/2 = 8 cm

The height, h₁ of the uppermost divided cone = 8 cm

The ratio of the radius to the height of the cone = 10/16 = 5/8

The radius r₁, of the uppermost divided cone = The height of the uppermost divided cone × The ratio of the radius to the height of the cone

∴ r₁ = 8 × 5/8 = 5 cm

The volume, V₁, of the uppermost divided cone = 1/3 × (π·r₁²) × h₁

∴ V₁ = 1/3 × π × 5² × 8 = 200·π/3 = 209.44 cm³

Which gives;

The volume of the lower cone, V₂ =  V - V₁

V₂ =  1675.52 cm³ - 209.44 cm³ = 1400·π/3 = 1466.1 cm³

The ratio of their volumes V₁ : V₂ = V₁/V₂ = (200·π/3)/(1400·π/3) = 209.44/1466.1 = 1/7.
