6 0

Answer:

196

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the largest share was 56 and the largest ratio is 14, then

56 ÷ 14 = 4 ← value of 1 part of the share, thus

8 parts = 8 × 4 = 32

6 parts = 6 × 4 = 24

9 parts = 9 × 4 = 36

14 parts = 14 × 4 = 56

12 parts = 12 × 4 = 48

Total the amounts

total = 32 + 24 + 36 + 56 + 48 = 196

Which criterion can be used to prove ABC and ADC are congruent?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Triangles have common side AC, and 2 adjacent to this side corresponding angles.
∠BAC=∠DCA, and
∠ACB=∠SAD.
So, triangles <span>ABC and ADC are congruent by ASA.</span>

Assume Cylinder A and Cone B are the same height and the bases have the same radius. If A has a volume of 18π cm3, what is the v

disa [49]

Answer:

Option A $V_B=19\ cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is:

$V_B = \pi\frac{hr ^ 2}{3}$

The volume of a cylinder is:

$V_A = \pi(r ^ 2)h$

Both figures have the same height h and the same radius r.

The volume of the cylinder $V_A = 18\pi\ cm ^ 3$

We want to find the volume of the cone.

Then, we find r and h:

$V_A = 18\pi = \pi(r ^ 2)h$

We simplify.

$V_A = 18 = (r ^ 2)h$

Then the product of $(r ^ 2)h = 18$ .

We substitute this in the cone formula and get:

$V_B =\frac{\pi}{3}(18)\\\\V_B = \frac{18}{3}\pi\\\\V_B=19\ cm^3$
