The correct answer is 18. She went wrong because she solved the equation in the wrong order she did 16+8, then got 24 then solved the exponent got 4 then divided 24 by 4 getting 6

She didn't follow the order of operations. She added 16 and 8 before dividing. Remember PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

She should first square 2 to get 4, then divide 8 by 4, and finally add 2 to 16 to get 18.

A cylinder has a volume of 200in^3. Determine the volume of a cone whose radius and height are equal to that of the cylinder
katrin [286]

Answer:

66.67 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cylinder = nr^2h

Volume of a cone =  1/3(nr^2h)

n = 22/7

r = radius

the volume of a cone is 1/3 that of a cylinder

volume of the cone = 1/3 x (200) = 66.67 in^3

sammy [17]

Answer:

0.56 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed of a body tells how fast is the body moving; it is calculated as:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we don't know the distance covered by Ben. Therefore, we will assume that it is 1 km:

d = 1 km = 1000 m

The time elapsed to cover this distance is:

t=30 min \cdot 60 =1800 s

Therefore, Ben's average speed is:

v=\frac{1000}{1800}=0.56 m/s

Answer:

Area = 12.82 miles²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle with two adjacent sides and the inscribed angle between these side is given by,

Area = \frac{1}{2}ab[\text{sin(C)}]

By substituting the values of sides a, b and the angle C,

Area = \frac{1}{2}(5.7\times 9.3)[\text{sin}(14^{\circ})]

        = 12.82 square miles
