Emily = x
Samantha = x + 2
Lauren = x + 4

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 42

x = 12

Thus: 

Emily = 12
Samantha = 14
Lauren = 16

(f+g)(x)=x^3+5x^2+16x-3



multiply
ok

f(x)g(x)=(x^3-4x+2)(x^2+2)

Answer:

  • C. π(3in)2(12in) − 9(four over threeπ(1.5in)3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of water is the difference of volume of vase at 12 in height and the total volume of marbles.

<u>Volume of cylinder up to water level:</u>

  • Vs = πr²h = π(6/2)²(12) = π×(3 in)²×(12 in)

<u>Volume of marbles:</u>

  • Vm = 9(4/3πr³) = 9×(4/3×π(3/2)³) = 9×(4/3×π×(1.5 in)³)

<u>Volume of water:</u>

  • Vw = Vs - Vm = π×(3 in)²×(12 in) - 9×(4/3×π×(1.5 in)³)

Correct choice is C
