The radius of cone is 2 inches

Solution:

The volume of cone is given by formula:

$V = \frac{\pi r^2h}{3}$

Where,

"V" is the volume of cone

"r" and "h" are the radius and height of cone respectively

Given that, volume of a cone is 16 pi cubic inches

Its height is 12 inches

Therefore, we get,

V = $16 \pi$ cubic inches

h = 12 inches

r = ?

Substituting the values in formula, we get

$16 \pi = \frac{ \pi \times r^2 \times 12}{3}\\\\16 = 4r^2\\\\r^2 = 4\\\\r = \pm 2$

Since, radius cannot be negative, ignore r = -2

Thus radius of cone is 2 inches

A water tank is 1/8 full the tank is 3/4 full when 42 gallons are added to the tank how much water was originally in the tank

masha68 [24]

A water tank is 1/8 full. The tank is 3/4 full when 42 gallons are added to the tank. How much water was originally in the tank? (I rewrote it, your wording was messed up)

3/4 = 6/8
1/8 + 6/8 = 7/8 = 42 gallons
42 divided by 8 = 5 1/4

So, the answer is 5 1/4. The tank originally 5.25 gallons of water.

write an expression for the sequence of operations described below. add s to t, add the result to r, then raise what you have to

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

$(s+t+r)^7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Sequential Operations

Mathematical operations can be done in sequence or in batches if they are of the same type. For example, we can add many terms in one single operation, but we cannot add and multiply in one go, because there are priorities when dealing with products and sums. Same happens with powers.

In our problem we are required to perform a sequence of operations like follows

Add s to t:

$s+t$

Add the result to r

$s+t+r$

Raise what you have to the 7th power

$\boxed{(s+t+r)^7}$

This is the final result

A car moves at a constant speed of 90km/h from a starting point. Another car moves at 70km/h after 2hours from the same starting

patriot [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

are you sure you wrote the problem here correctly ?

because the distance will be 40km after less than half an hour just by the first car driving. way before the second car even starts.

to be precise, it would be after 60 minutes × 40 / 90

(= how many minutes of an hour are needed to reach 40km while going 90km/h) :

60 × 40 / 90 = 60 × 4 / 9 = 20 × 4 / 3 = 80/3 = 26.67 minutes.

but maybe the question was about 400km distance between the two cars.

so, the first car goes 90km/h for 2 hours.

at that moment it will be 2×90=180km ahead.

that would mean that 220km are still missing for the 400km assumption.

with each hour driving the first car makes 20km more than the second car.

to build up 220km that way would require

220/20 = 11 hours.

plus the 2 original head start hours this would make 13 hours as overall answer.
