You are looking at right angles in the problem. Right angles are 90 degrees.

So set up the problem to solve for X using:

90=4x+12

90-12=4x

78=4x

39/2 or 19.5 = x

A cylinder and a cone have congruent heights and radii. What is the ratio of the volume of the cone to the volume of the cylinde

n200080 [17]

A cone with the same radius and height as a cylinder will have one-third the volume of the cylinder.

Vcone = (1/3)*π*r^2*h

Vcylinder = π*r^2*h

A local petting zoo had a total of 98,464 visitors last year. The zoo was open every day except thanksgiving, Christmas, and New

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The average number of visitors per day is 272.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of visitors in the zoo in a year = 98,464

Now,we know that 1 YEAR = 365 DAYS

Also, the zoo was closed on thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve

So, the Number of days zoo was open = Total Days in year - 3 days

= 365 - 3 = 362 days

⇒Number of visitors in 362 days = 98,464

So, $\textrm{Number of visitor per day} = \frac{\textrm{Total number of visitors in 352 days}}{\textrm{352 days}}$

$= \frac{98,464}{362} = 272$

or, the number of people visiting per day is 272.

Hence, the average number of visitors per day is 272.

Write an equation for the line passing through the points (-5,15) and (20,25). Show how you found your answer.

olasank [31]

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (-5, 15) and (20, 25). substitute:

$m=\dfrac{25-15}{20-(-5)}=\dfrac{10}{25}=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\y-15=\dfrac{2}{5}(x-(-5))\\\\y-15=\dfrac{2}{5}(x+5)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y-15=\dfrac{2}{5}x+2\qquad|\text{add 15 from both sides}\\\\y=\dfrac{2}{5}x+17\qquad|\text{multiply both sides by 5}\\\\5y=2x+85\qquad|\text{subtract 2x from both sides}\\\\-2x+5y=85\qquad|\text{change the signs}\\\\2x-5y=-85$
