The radius of a 12 inch right circular cylinder is measured to be 4 inches, but with a possible error of ±0.2 inch. What is the

resulting possible error in the volume of the cylinder? Include units in your answer.
Please explain in detail!

I know that V = pir^2h
r = 4 and h = 12
V = pi(4^2)(12) = 603.186

Now what do I do?

Given:
r = radius = 4
h = height = 12
dr = error in radius = 0.2

What we want to find
dV = error in volume

Use the derivative to find the differential dV
V = pi*r^2*h
dV/dr = d/dr[ pi*r^2*h ]
dV/dr = 2pi*r*h
dV = 2pi*r*h*dr
dV = 2pi*4*12*0.2
dV = 19.2pi

So if the error in measuring the radius is +-0.2 inches, then the error in the cylinder volume is +-19.2pi cubic inches (we either measure the volume to be 19.2pi cubic inches too big, or 19.2pi cubic inches too small)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Answer: Plus or minus 19.2pi cubic inches

Note: your teacher may want you to drop the "plus or minus" part

Based on the tree diagram below, what is the probability that a student doesn’t have lice, given that the student tested negativ
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

0.6768

Step-by-step explanation:

It says what is the probability student doesn't have lice GIVEN THAT student tested negative.

<em>We need to look at the tree branch that has "student has no lice" and "test shows negative".</em>

<em><u>Looking at the bottom-most branch, we see this one shows that "test is negative and student has no lice". This has a value of 0.6768. This is the correct answer.</u></em>

Equation of the line (-6,5) and (8,14) in standard form
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{9x-14y=-70}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

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

We have two points (-6, 5) and (8, 14).

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{14-5}{8-(-6)}=\dfrac{9}{14}\\\\y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x-(-6))\\\\y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x+6)

Thew standard form of an equation of a line:

Ax+By=C

transform:

y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x+6)\qquad|\text{multiply both sides by 14}\\\\14y-14\cdot5=14\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{9}{14\!\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}(x+6)\\\\14y-70=9(x+6)\\\\14y-70=9x+54\qquad|\text{subtract}\ 9x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-9x+14y-70=54\qquad|\text{add 70 to both sides}\\\\-9x+14y=70\qquad|\text{change the signs}\\\\9x-14y=-70

Which of the following represents the best way to calculate the area of the shaded region?
Komok [63]

Errrrrrr what following. I know that you need to separate the parts into simple shapes eg:triangle and then find the area of all the shapes and add up. All the shapes should make up the shaded area.
