Large cake:
24÷2=12
12 is the radius of the large cake.
12×12×3.14=452.16

Small cake:
8÷2=4
4 is the radius of the small cake.
4×4×3.14=50.24

452.16÷3=150.72
So, The area of the large cake is not three times the area of the small cake.

We must find the area of each cake's top.

Formula for area of a circle:

A =  \pi  r^{2} where r is the radius.

<span>small cake:
</span>Plug in 4 for r because the radius is 4. (They give us the diameter, which is 8, and the radius is half that)

A =  \pi  4^{2}

A = 16π

<span>big cake:
</span>Repeat the process: 
Plug in 12 for r because the radius is 12. (They give us the diameter, which is 24, and the radius is half that)

A = \pi 12^{2}

A = 144π

So our two radii are 144π and 16π. 
The large cake's top is not 3 times the area of the small cake's.

This makes sense because you are squaring the radius, which makes the fact that the larger cake's diameter is triple the smaller cake diameter irrelevant. 

Hope this helped! ^-^

Answer:

\huge \boxed{X=30}

B. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you multiply by 5 from both sides of equation.

\displaystyle \frac{x}{5}=6\times5

Simplify, to find the answer.

\displaystyle 6\times5=30

\huge \boxed{X=30}, which is our answer.

Answer:

C. p(x) = 5x - 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = 8x - (3x + 12)     (Note you have to put the 3x+12 in parentheses).

p(x) = 8x - 3x - 12

p(x) = 5x - 12

A ball dropped from the top of a building can be modeled by the function
timama [110]

A ball dropped from the top of the building can be modeled by the function f(t)=-16t^2 + 36 , where t represents time in seconds after the ball was dropped. A bee's flight can be modeled by the function, g(t)=3t+4, where t represents time in seconds after the bee starts the flight.

24 feet
Set up a ratio of object height to shadow length.
So x/32=6/8
8(4)=32 so 6(4) would be 24.
