V ( cylinder ) = r² π h
V ( cone ) = 1/3 r² π h
A cone that fits exactly inside the cylinder has the volume:
V ( cone ) = 1/3 V ( cylinder = 1/3 · 81 = 27 ft³

A sporting goods store sells right-handed and left-handed baseball gloves. In one month, 12 gloves were sold for a total revenue

stepladder [879]

Answer:

$9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In one month, $12$ gloves were sold for a total revenue of $\$561$ .

right-handed gloves cost $\$45$ and left-handed gloves cost $\$52$ .

To find: How much of each type of gloves did they sell?

Solution: Let they sell $x$ right-handed gloves, and $y$ left-handed gloves.

Now, cost of each right-handed gloves $=\$45$

cost of each left-handed gloves $=\$52$

Total revenue $=\$561$

So, we get

$45x+52y=561\:\:\:...(i)$

Also, in a month $12$ gloves were sold.

So, we get

$x+y=12\:\:\:...(ii)$

Now, from $(ii)$ we get, $x=12-y$ .

Putting $x=12-y$ in equation $(i)$ , we get

$45(12-y)+52y=561$

$\implies 540-45y+52y=561$

$\implies7y=561-540$

$\implies7y=21$

$\implies y=\frac{21}{7}$

$\implies y=3$

Now, putting $y=3$ in equation $(ii)$ , we get

$x+3=12$

$\implies x=12-3$

$\implies x=9$

Hence, $9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.
