If a figure is a triangle, then it has three sides.

Car X weighs 136 pounds more than car Z. Car Y weighs 117 pounds more than car Z. The total weight of all three cars is 9439 pou

Aleksandr [31]

Let x, y and z denote the weighs of car X, car Y and car Z, respectively.

We know that car X weighs 136 more than car Z, this can be express by the equation:

$x=z+136$

We also know that Y weighs 117 pounds more than car Z, this can be express as:

$y=z+117$

Finally, we know that the total weight of all the cars is 9439, then we have:

$x+y+z=9439$

Hence, we have the system of the equations:

$\begin{gathered} x=z+136 \\ y=z+117 \\ z+y+z=9439 \end{gathered}$

To solve the system we can plug the values of x and y, given in the first two equations, in the last equation; then we have:

$\begin{gathered} z+136+z+117+z=9439 \\ 3z=9439-136-117 \\ 3z=9186 \\ z=\frac{9186}{3} \\ z=3062 \end{gathered}$

Now that we have the value of z we plug it in the first two equations to find x and y:

$\begin{gathered} x=3062+136=3198 \\ y=3062+117=3179 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, car X weighs 3198 pound, car Y weighs 3179 pounds and car Z weighs 3062 pounds.

How does the volume of an oblique cone change if the height is reduced to 2/3 of its original size and the radius is doubled

spayn [35]

The volume of oblique cone = $\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$

Now radius is doubled is now it is 2r

And height is reduced to 2/3 of its original size that is 2/3 h

So plugging the values we get volume

New Volume = $\frac{1}{3} \pi (2r)^2 (\frac{2}{3} h)$

= $\frac{1}{3} \pi 4r^2 (\frac{2}{3} h) = \frac{8}{6} \pi r^{2} h =\frac{8}{2} (\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h )$ $=4*(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h )$

It means the volume becomes 4 times

8. Solve for x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.<br> 8.6<br> 4<br> x<br> 0176

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

C. 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

4^2 + 8.6^2 = c^2

16 + 73.96 = c^2

c^2 = 89.96

c = 9.4847....

4. What is the measure of the missing angle?

defon

Answer:

X = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle is 90 degrees in total and one portion of the angle is 62 degrees

You subtract the 62 degrees from the 90-degree angle to figure out the other unknown portion of the angle

90 - 62 = 28
