Answer:

40 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

lateral surface area -Slat = 24 ft^2

top surface area-Stop = 8 ft^2

bottom surface area -Sbot = 8 ft^2

24+8+8= 40

total surface area -Stot = 40 ft^2

What are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle in which one acute angle measures 19° and the hypotenuse is 15 units long?

pentagon [3]

The legs of a triangle with a hypotenuse that measures 15 units long have lengths that are equal to 15 times the sine or cosine of the given angle.
leg 1 = (15 units) x (cos 19) = 14.18 units
leg 2 = (15 units) x (sin 19) = 4.88 units
The lengths of the legs are 14.18 units and 4.88 units.

Hunter-Best [27]

What you need to look for is $\frac { dr }{ dt }$ when r=8.

Now:

$Volume\quad of\quad a\quad sphere:\\ \\ V=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 }$

$\therefore \quad \frac { dV }{ dr } =\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi \cdot 3{ r }^{ 2 }=4\pi { r }^{ 2 }\\ \\ \therefore \quad \frac { dr }{ dV } =\frac { 1 }{ \frac { dV }{ dr } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } }$

$And:\\ \\ \frac { dV }{ dt } =-\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ Therefore:\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =\frac { dr }{ dV } \cdot \frac { dV }{ dt }$

$\\ \\ =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } } \cdot -\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ =-\frac { 256 }{ 12 } \cdot \frac { \pi }{ \pi } \cdot \frac { 1 }{ { r }^{ 2 } }$

$\\ \\ =-\frac { 64 }{ 3{ r }^{ 2 } } \\ \\ When\quad r=8,\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =-\frac { 64 }{ 3\cdot { 8 }^{ 2 } } =-\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \\ \\ Answer:\quad -\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \quad cm/sec$

Tell what you would do to isolate the variable.

Mariana [72]

<span>Simplifying x + -1.4 = 7.82 Reorder the terms: -1.4 + x = 7.82 Solving -1.4 + x = 7.82 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.4' to each side of the equation. -1.4 + 1.4 + x = 7.82 + 1.4 Combine like terms: -1.4 + 1.4 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 7.82 + 1.4 x = 7.82 + 1.4 Combine like terms: 7.82 + 1.4 = 9.22 x = 9.22 Simplifying x = 9.22</span>
