From the given dimensions of the pentagonal prism, the scale factor for both figures is 9:36 which is also equal to 1:4. For the ratio of their volume, we just have to cube the ratio of the measurement of the sides which will give us an answer of 1:64. Therefore, the volume of the larger prism is 64 times as that of the smaller prism.

A cylinder has a height of 16 cm and a radius of 5 cm. A cone has a height of 12 cm and a radius of 4 cm. If the cone is placed
Archy [21]
Volume of Cylinder
= πr²h
= (3.14)(5)²(16)
= 1256 cm³

Volume of Cone
= 1/3πr²h
= 1/3(3.14)(4)²(12)
= 200.96 cm³

Volume of air space
= Volume of Cylinder - Volume of Cone
= 1256 - 200.96
= 1055.04 cm³
≈ 1055 cm³ (nearest whole number)

Help! <br> Which expression is equivalent? <br> On edge
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Choice B

x^{1/8}y^{8}

======================================================

Explanation:

The two rules we use are

(a*b)^c = a^c*b^c

(a^b)^c = a^{b*c}

When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = \left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2}

Then applying the second rule lets us say

\left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/4*1/2}*y^{16*1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}

Therefore,

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2}  = x^{1/8}y^{8}

-------------

In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.

So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.

a vendor bought n dozen eggs at the rate of 22.6 of the rotating he sold the remaining acts at the rate of 2.50 per act find his
babymother [125]

Answer:

Your question was a bit confusing so I found another related question. You can reference it with your own details.

A vendor bought 10 dozen eggs at the rate of Rs 22 per dozen. Six of the eggs were rotten. He sold the remaining eggs at the rate of Rs 2.50 per egg . Find his profit or loss

Vendor bought 10 dozen eggs which means the vendor bought:

= 10 * 12 eggs

= 120 eggs

6 were rotten and he sold the rest for Rs. 2.50 per egg.

= (120 - 6) * 2.5

= Rs. 285

The amount he spent on the eggs was:

= 10 dozen * 22

= Rs. 220

Profit = 285 - 220

= Rs. 65

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the prob ability that a randomly selected household speaks only English at home is 0.81. Th
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the prob ability that a randomly selected household speaks only English at home is 0.81.

The probability that a randomly selected household speaks only Spanish at home is 0.12.

(a)  the probability that a randomly selected household speaks only English or only Spanish at home

= 0.81+0.12 = 0.93

(since these two are disjoint sets)

(b)  the probability that a randomly selected household speaks a language other than only English or only Spanish at home

= 1-0.93= 0.07 (remaining)

(c)  the probability that a randomly selected household speaks a language other than only English at home

=1-0.81=0.19

(d) Can the probability that a randomly selected household speaks only Polish at home equal 0.08? Why or why not?

Polish alone can never exceed 1-(0.81+0.12) i.e. 0.70

At most it can take values as 0.7 only

So no is the answer.
