You have to divide by 23/3 which goes to 7. Which is 21. 2 ruby are left to feed.

Dennis has three identical cylinders filled with water. How many cones should he be able to fill with the water if the cones

Brut [27]

Answer:

3 cylinder will fill 9 cones with water

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on mensuration of slides, cone and cylinder

We know that the

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Volume of a cone = 1/3(πr²h)

Given that both cylinder and cone has same height and radius

From the given expression we can deduce that the cone is 3 times smaller than the cylinder in volume

So if 1 cylinder will fill 3 cones

Then 3 cylinders will fill x cones

By cross multiplication we have

x= 3*3cones

x= 9 cones

Hence 3 cylinder will fill 9 cones with water

7x^2=9+x what are the values of x<br><br>Will give medal and points

DENIUS [597]

7x² = 9 + x Subtract x from both sides
7x² - x = 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
7x² - x - 9 = 0 Use the Quadratic Formula

a = 7 , b = -1 , c = -9

x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in the a, b, and c values
x = $\frac{- (-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Cancel out the double negative
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Square -1
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 7 and -9
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(-63} }{2(7)}$ Multiply -4 and -63
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 2 and 7
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{14}$ Add 1 and 252
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{253} }{14}$ Split up the $\pm$
x = $\left \{ {{ \frac{1 + \sqrt{253} }{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - \sqrt{253} }{14} }} \right.$
The approximate square root of 253 is <span>15.905973.
</span>x ≈ $\left \{ { \frac{1 + 15.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - 15.905973}{14} }} \right$ Add and subtract
x ≈ $\left \{ {{ \frac{16.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{14.905973}{14} }} \right.$ Divide
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.2075} \atop {1.0647}} \right.$ Round to the nearest hundredth
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.21} \atop {1.06}} \right.$

Write an expression for “5 more pounds than joe”

LenKa [72]

Answer:

x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you don't know how much Joe weighs, you can express his weight as x. Then, you add on 5 because you have 5 more lbs than joe (which is x).
