Answer:

6x²(2x² + x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We factor this by factoring out the GCF.

The largest number that will divide into 12, 6 and 18 is 6.

Since all of the powers of x have an exponent of at least 2, we can factor out an x² as well.

This gives us 6x² on the outside.

12/6 = 2; x⁴/x² = x²

6/6 = 1; x³/x² = x

18/6 = 3; x²/x² = 1

This gives us

6x²(2x² + x + 3)

Meg mixes 3 parts silver paint with 4 parts green paint to get a specific color. Is the ratio 5:6 equivalent to 3:4?

damaskus [11]

Answer:

No, because the numbers in the given ratio must be multiplied by the same number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, ratio to be equal must be equal. E.g. 3:4 would be equal to 6:8 because you multiply both sides of the ratio by 2.

A cylinder and a cone have the same base and height. The cylinder can hold about 4,712 Centimeters cubed of sand. Jared says tha

klasskru [66]

Answer:

C. Jared is not correct because the cone and the cylinder have the same base and height so the cone holds 4,712/3≈1,571 centimeters cubed of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a cone and a cylinder with the same base and height.

We can express the volume of the cylinder as:

$V_{cyl}=\pi r^2H$

being r the radius and H the height.

The volume of the cone can be written as:

$V_{con}=\dfrac{\pi}{3}r^2H=\dfrac{V_{cyl}}{3}$

As they have the same base and height, we know that the volume of the cylinder is 3 times the volume of the cone.

If the volume of the cylinder is 4,712 cm^3, then the volume of the cone is:

$V_{con}=\dfrac{V_{cyl}}{3}=\dfrac{4,712}{3}\approx1571$
