When solving -1/8(x+35)=-7 what is the correct sequence of operations

1 answer:

4 0

-1/8(x+35)=-7
*-8 *-8 cancel out the -1/8 by multiplying by its reciprocal, 8/-1 or -8
x+35=56
-35 -35 cancel out the 35 by subtracting
x= 21
so multiply by the reciprocal and then subtract should be your answer

Is 0.06 bigger than 1?

taurus [48]

Hi there!

Great question! 0.06 is actually SMALLER than 1.

Why?

Because 0.06 is almost half of the whole number. Half of 1 is 0.5, which is larger than 0.06.

Half is smaller than whole, so, therefore, 1 is larger.

Hope this helps!

Message me if you need anything else! I'd be happy to help! :D

The formula for the slant height of a cone is , where S is surface area of the cone. Use the formula to find the slant height, l

liq [111]

we know that

The formula of the surface area of the cone is equal to

$SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl$

where

SA is the surface area

r is the radius of the cone

l is the slant height

in this problem we have

$SA=500\pi\ ft^{2}\\r=15\ ft\\l=?$

Solve the formula for l

$SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl\\ \\\pi rl=SA-\pi r^{2} \\ \\l=\frac{SA-\pi r^{2} }{\pi r}$

substitute the values

$l=\frac{500\pi -\pi 15^{2} }{\pi15}\\ \\l=\frac{275}{15}\ ft\\ \\l=\frac{55}{3}\ ft\\ \\l=18\frac{1}{3}\ ft$

therefore

the answer is

The slant height is $18\frac{1}{3}\ ft$
