Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the HCF/GCF of 36, 48, and 72. The HCF is 12. So, there will be 12 stacks of books. This is a simple example of HCF. Please mark me as brainliest. Thanks

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF of 36, 48, and 72 is 12 so there will be 36 / 12 = 3 stacks of English books, 48 / 12 = 4 stacks of science books and 72 / 12 = 6 stacks of math books for a total of 3 + 4 + 6 = 13 stacks.

Solve the equation on the interval [0, 2π).
Elden [556K]

Answer:

x = pi/2..only

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation states that...,

tan^2x.sin x = tan^2x

;we simplify the equation by dividing both sides by tan^2x...which then leaves our equation as,

; sin x = 1

; x = sin^-1 (1)

; Hence x = pi/2

Last month, Margo bought a tree that grows 2.5 cm each day. It was 5 cm when she bought it and now it 65 cm tall.
Radda [10]
You will want this equation to be in y=mx+b, because you already have the slope and y-intercept. X will be the number of days she has had the plant, and Y will be the height of the tree, because it is the variable being affected by the X. The slope, or the M, is 2.5 because this is the number of centimeters the tree grows per day. The y-intercept is 5, because this is the height of the tree originally. So, the equation is Y=2.5X+5. To solve the number of days Margo will have had the plant, plug in 65 (the height of the plant after a certain amount of days) into the Y variable and solve for X. So, 65=2.5X+5. Subtract 5 from both sides to get 60=2.5X, then divide both sides by 2.5 to get X=24. So, she will have owned the plant for 24 days.

The volume of this cylinder is 20,403.72 cubic yards. What is the radius? Use ​ ≈ 3.14 and round your answer to the nearest hund
MakcuM [25]
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V=3.14r^2(h).
So substituting the volume: 20,403.72=3.14r^2(h).

To solve for ‘r’, divide both sides by 3.14h
r^2=6,498/h
Then find square root of both sides
r= sqrt(6,498/h)
Since ‘h’ is not specified here, it cannot be solved further.
