Answer:

72 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h$ --1

Volume of cylinder = $\pi r^{2} h$ --2

We are given that a cylinder should fit exactly inside the cone

On comparing 1 and 2 we can see:

$\text{Volume of cone}= \frac{1}{3} \text{Volume of cylinder}$

Since we are given the volume of cone is 24 cubic inches .

So, $24= \frac{1}{3} \text{Volume of cylinder}$

$24 \times 3= \text{Volume of cylinder}$

$72= \text{Volume of cylinder}$

Hence the volume of cylinder is 72 cubic inches

Option D is correct.

Determine whether each scale factor produces an expansion or a contraction under a dilation of the original image

blondinia [14]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the absolute value of the scale factor is less than 1, then the dilation produces a contraction of the original image

If the absolute value of the scale factor is greater than 1, then the dilation produces an expansion of the original image

<u><em>Verify each value</em></u>

1) -4

$\left|-4\right|=4$

$4> 1$

therefore

The dilation produces an expansion of the original image

2) 0.25

$\left|0.25\right|=0.25$

$0.25 < 1$

therefore

The dilation produces a contraction of the original image

3) -2/3

$\left|-2/3\right|=2/3$

$2/3 < 1$

therefore

The dilation produces a contraction of the original image

4) 2.3

$\left|2.3\right|=2.3$

$2.3 > 1$

therefore

The dilation produces an expansion of the original image

Which angle in triangle DEF has the largest measure?

nordsb [41]

Answer:

D is the largest angle

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle opposite the largest side is the largest and the angle opposite the smallest side is the smallest.

Since 12 is the largest side, angle D is the largest

8 is the smallest side, F is the smallest angle

A manufacturer wishes to make a cereal box in the shape of a golden rectangle, based on the theory that this shape is the most p

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Let w be the width and l the length of the rectangle.
Then: $\frac{l}{w}= \frac{1+\sqrt5}{2} \text{ and }lw=104$
Solving the above system we get:
$l= \frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}w\\= \frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}\frac{104}{l}$
Therefore:
$l^2=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}104$ then $l=13$ ,which is the length,
And then the width $w=\frac{104}{13}=8$
