Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of each twin be x

let age of sister be s

So we can write:

x + 4 = s

The product of the 3 siblings ages is 3482 more than sum. We can write:

s*x*x=3482+(s+x+x)

This can be simplified as:

sx^2=3482+s+2x

We replace s with "x + 4" and solve:

(x+4)x^2=3482+x+4+2x\\x^3+4x^2=3486+3x\\x^3+4x^2-3x-3486=0\\x=14

<u>Note:</u> To solve this cubic, we used technology

Thus, we can say the twins are 14 years old

Electric utility poles in the form of right cylinders are made out of wood that costs
olga_2 [115]

The cost of a utility pole with a diameter of 1.5 ft and a height of 40 ft is $782.1

<h3>How to calculate the cost of a utility pole with a diameter of 1.5 ft and a height of 40 ft?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Cost per cubic foot = $11.07 per cubic foot

Height = 40 feet

Diameter = 1.5 feet

Shape = Cylinder

The volume of the cylinder is calculated as:

V = πr^2h

Where

r = Diameter/2

So, we have

r = 1.5/2

Evaluate

r = 0.75

The volume of the cylinder becomes

V = 3.14 * 0.75^2 * 40

Evaluate

V = 70.65

The cost per cubic foot is $11.07 per cubic foot.

So, the cost of a utility pole is

Cost = $11.07 * 70.65

Evaluate

Cost = $782.1

Hence, the cost of a utility pole with a diameter of 1.5 ft and a height of 40 ft is $782.1
