How does the volume of a cylinder change when its diameter is halved? Explain Please.

The answer is: it will decrease 4 times.

Let d be diameter and h height of a cylinder

The volume of a cylinder is:
V1 = π * (d/2)² * h = π * d²/4 * h = π * d² * h / 4
If diameter is halved, the volume is:
V2 = π * ((d/2)/2)² * h = π * (d/4)² * h = π * d²/16 * h = π * d² * h / 16

Now, let's compare them:
V1 / V2 = (π * d² * h / 4) / (π * d² * h / 16)

π * d² * h can be cancelled out:
V1 / V2 = (1/4) / (1/16) = (1/4) * 16 = 16/4 = 4

Therefore, the volume of the smaller cylinder will decrease 4 times.

A rectangle has a length of 3x-5 and a width of 2x+9.
Montano1993 [528]

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 3x - 5

w = 2x + 9

perimeter = 2l + 2w = 2(3x - 5) + 2(2x + 9) =

= 6x - 10 + 4x + 18 = 10x + 8

area = l×w = (3x - 5)(2x + 9) = 6x² + 27x - 10x - 45 =

= 6x² + 17x - 45

Which value of x must be excluded from the domain of the function, y = 9 / 2(x + 7)?
svlad2 [7]
B) -7 because the dominator must be different by 0.

2(x + 7) ≠ 0    |divide both sides by 2

x + 7 ≠ 0    |subtract 7 from both sides

x ≠ -7
