EDIT:
Order of operations doesn't matter in addition. So you can add them in any order.
Tan 2x - cot x = 0
2tan x / (1 - tan^2 x) - 1/tan x = 0
2tan^2 x - (1 - tan^2 x) = 0
2tan^2 x - 1 + tan^2 x = 0
3tan^2 x - 1 = 0
tan^2 x = 1/3
tan x = + or - 1/√3
Answer:
12:3
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 1,695.6 in³.
The volume of the empty space is the difference of the bigger cylinder and the smaller cylinder: V = V1 - V2
The volume of the bigger cylinder is:
V1 = π r² h
r = 10 in
h = 15 in
π = 3.14
V1 = 3.14 * 10² * 15 = 4,710 in³
The volume of the smaller cylinder is:
V2 = π r² h
r = 8 in
h = 15 in
π = 3.14
V2 = 3.14 * 8² * 15 = 3,014.4 in³
The volume of the empty space is:
V = V1 - V2 = 4,710 in³ - 3,014.4 in³ = 1,695.6 in³
