Never be a positive number.

Opposite means its on the opposite side of the number line.

For example, the opposite of 5 is -5.

What is the solution for the equation 5/3b^3-2b-5=2/b3-2

irinina [24]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

$\frac{5}{3b^3-2b^2-5}=\frac{2}{b^3-2}$

To find: Solution of the Equation.

Consider,

$5(b^3-2)=2(3b^3-2b^2-5)$

$5b^3-10=6b^3-4b^2-10$

$6b^3-5b^3-4b^2+10-10=0$

$b^3-4b^2=0$

$b^2(b-4)=0$

b² = 0 ⇒ b = 0

b - 4 = 0 ⇒ b = 4

Therefore, Option C is correct.

A right cylinder has a radius of 6 m and a surface area of 84 m². Find the surface area of a similar cylinder with a radius of 2

dlinn [17]

Answer:

The surface area of the second cylinder is equal to $9.33\ m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar then

the ratio of their surfaces areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z-------> the scale factor

x------> the surface area of the smaller cylinder (second cylinder)

y-------> the surface area of the original cylinder (first cylinder)

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

Step 1

Find the scale factor

$z=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2

Find the surface area of the second cylinder

we have

$z=\frac{1}{3}$

$y=84\ m^{2}$

substitute and solve for x

$(\frac{1}{3})^{2}=\frac{x}{84}$

$x=\frac{1}{9}*84=9.33\ m^{2}$
