A conical container can hold 120π cubic centimeters of water. The diameter of the base of the container is 12 centimeters.

nignag [31]

Answer:

A. 10cm

B. 8 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on volume of a conical container

Volume of a cone= $\pi r^{2} h/3$

where r is the radius of base and h is the height of the cone

Given diameter= 12 cm, thus radius r=12/2 =6 cm

$v=\pi r^2h/3 \\120\pi =\pi *6*6*h/3\\120\pi =12\pi h\\10=h$

h=10 cm

If height and diameter were doubled

New height = 2×10 =20 cm

New diameter = 2×12 = 24, r=12 cm

volume = $v=\pi r^2h/3\\v=\pi *12*12*20/3\\v=960\pi$

To find the number of times we divide new volume with the old volume

$N= 960\pi /120\pi \\\\N= 8$

Morgan made a mistake when subtracting the rational expressions below.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer : D

$\frac{3t^2-4t+1}{t+3} - \frac{t^2+2t+2}{t+3}$

The denominators are same

So we combine the numerators

$\frac{(3t^2-4t+1)-(t^2+2t+2)}{t+3}$

To remove parenthesis we distribute negative sign inside the second parenthesis

$\frac{3t^2-4t+1-t^2-2t-2)}{t+3}$

$\frac{2t^2-6t-1)}{t+3}$

Morgan made a mistake. He forgot to distribute the negative sign

Morgan forgot to distribute the negative sign to two of the terms 2t and 2 inside second parenthesis
