Answer:

The value of x is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us equate the fraction by its equivalent

∵ $\frac{352}{x-10}$ = -22

→ Multiply both sides by (x - 10) to cancel the denominator of the left side

∴ $\frac{352}{x-10}$ × (x - 10) = -22 × (x - 10)

∴ 352 = -22(x - 10)

→ Simplify the right side by multiplying -22 by the bracket (x - 10)

∵ 352 = -22(x) - 22(-10)

∴ 352 = -22x + 220

→ Add 22x to both sides

∵ 22x + 352 = -22x + 22x + 220

∴ 22x + 352 = 220

→ Subtract 352 from both sides

∴ 22x + 352 - 352 = 220 - 352

∴ 22x = - 132

→ Divide both sides by 22 to find x

∴ $\frac{22x}{22}=-\frac{132}{22}$

∴ x = -6

∴ The value of x is -6

The figure is made up of a cylinder and a cone. What is the volume of the composite figure? Use 3.14 for Pi. Round to the neares

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The volume of figure is 310.86 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to calculate the volume of cone and cylinder seperately by applying the formulas :

Cone,

$v = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times {r}^{2} \times h$

$let \: \pi = 3.14 \\ let \: r = 3 \\ let \: h = 9$

$v = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times {3}^{2} \times 9$

$v = 84.78 \: {cm}^{3}$

Cylinder,

$v = \pi \times {r}^{2} \times h$

$let \: \pi = 3.14 \\ let \: r = 3 \\ let \: h = 8$

$v = 3.14 \times {3}^{2} \times 8$

$v = 226.08 \: {cm}^{3}$

Next, you have to add up both volumes as the figure are made from cone and cylinder :

$v = 84.78 + 226.08$

$v = 310.86 \: {cm}^{3}$

What is the factored form of 2x3 + 4x2 – x?

AleksandrR [38]

Looking at the expression, we see that the only common factor shared between these three terms is x.

We factor out x:
x(2x2 + 4x - 1)

We can no longer find any common factors, so this is the final answer.
