First we'll consider the floor size.
In a 10 by 12 room the longest pipe that will fit lying on the floor equals the hypotenuse of a 10 by 12 triangle:
hypotenuse² = 10² + 12²
hypotenuse² = 100 + 144
hypotenuse² = 244
hypotenuse = <span> <span> <span> 15.62 feet

Now we have to consider the third dimension (height = 8 feet).
The two sides would be 15.62 and 8
</span></span></span>hypotenuse² = 15.62² + 8²
hypotenuse² = 244 + 64 = 308
hypotenuse = 17.55
So, the longest pipe that would fit in that room would be 17.55 feet long.

No, if the pipe is 20 foot long that means the room would have be 20 foot long, tall, or wide which its not.

A cylindrical rainwater tank is 1.5 m tall with a diameter of 1.4 m. What is the maximum volume of rainwater it can hold??
Ket [755]

To work out the volume of a prism, you multiply the area of cross-section by the height (or length).

So for a cylinder, you work out the area of the circle and then multiply it by the height.

Area of circle (or cross-section) = π × radius²

                                                = π × 0.7²

                                                = 0.49π   m²

Now to get the volume of the cylinder, you times this area of the cross-section by the height of the cylinder:

Volume = 0.49π × 1.5

            = 2.3 m³  (accurate to 2 decimal places)

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

Answer:

The maximum volume of rainwater the cylinder can hold is:

<u> </u><u>2.3 </u><u>m³</u>

Y=-5x+6<br> y=3x-2<br><br> Find the solution to the system of equations.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

(1, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 5x + 6 → (1)

y = 3x - 2 → (2)

Since both equations express y in terms of x, equate the right sides

3x - 2 = - 5x + 6 ( add 5x to both sides )

8x - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

8x = 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

Substituting x = 1 in (2)

y = 3(1) - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1

Solution is (1, 1 )
