<u>Answer</u>

D. Add 4x to both sides.


<u>Explanation</u>

-9x = -4x + 5

On the right hand side we have -4x. We have to add 4x on both sides to have;

-9x + 4x= -4x + 5 + 4x          

(-4x + 4x = 0)

(-9x + 4x = -5x)

∴ -5x = 5

For this case we have the following equation:

-9x = -4x + 5

We want to clear x:

For this we must follow a series of steps, the first consists of adding 4x to both sides of the equation to obtain:

-9x + 4x = -4x + 4x + 5\\-5x = 5

In this way, the variable term remains on one side of the equation.

Thus, the first step will be:

Add 4x to both sides

Answer:

Option D

Answer:

The answer is 65.97 yd^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is: v = \pi r^{2}\frac{h}{3}

So, v = \pi(3^2)(7/3) = 65.97345 yd^3

A pharmaticeutical company is making a new medicine capsule shaped like a cylinder with a half sphere at each end. The
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

339.12 cubic millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The volume of the figure is equal to the volume of the two hemispheres (one sphere) plus the volume of the cylinder

so

step 1

Find the volume of the cylinder

The volume is given by

V=Bh

where

B is the area of the base of cylinder

h is the height of cylinder

we have

B=\pi r^{2}

we have

h=8\ mm

r=6/2=3\ mm ----> the radius is half the diameter

B=(3.14)(3)^{2}

B=28.26\ mm^2

substitute

V=(28.26)(8)=226.08\ mm^3

step 2

Find the volume of the sphere

The volume is given by

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi  r^{3}

we have

r=6/2=3\ mm ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

V=\frac{4}{3}(3.14)(3)^{3}=113.04\ mm^3

step 3

Adds the volumes

226.08+113.04=339.12\ mm^3

Leila says that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Leilas c
Greeley [361]
If a number is positive, Leila's theory that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of another number is <em>true</em>;<em> </em>however, if both numbers are negative, or if the number of which she finds 50% is much greater than the number of which she finds 75%, Leila's theory could be incorrect.

This inequality shows that Leila is correct: 100(0.75) \geq 50(0.50) (which simplifies to 75 \geq 25)

This inequality shows that Leila is incorrect: 50(0.75) \geq 100(0.50) (which simplifies to 37.5 \geq 50)

Hope this helps!
