2x/21=12/18
Use cross multiply
2x(18)=21×12
36x=252
Divided 36 for both side
36x/36=252/36
x=7. As a result, x=7 is your final answer. Hope it help!

You can use something called crossed multiplication (not sure the official name but something like that) basically when you have 2 fractions that equal to each other, you can multiply the numerator on the left-hand side with the denominator on the friction on the right side. and repeat the same with the numerator on the right side and multiply it by the denominator on the left. that way, there will be no more fractions and will just leave you simple algebraic equations.
so in here2x / 21 = 12 / 18 252 = 36x x = 7

This soda can is going to be made from aluminum. How many square centimeters of aluminum are needed if the radius r = 3.5 cm and
kari74 [83]

208.81 square centimeters of aluminium are needed

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Radius = 3.5 cm

Height = 6 cm

We have to find the square centimeters of aluminum needed

So we have to find the surface area of cylinder

<em><u>The surface area of cylinder is given by formula:</u></em>

A = 2 \pi r(h+r)

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of cylinder

<em><u>Substituting the values we get,</u></em>

A  = 2 \times 3.14 \times 3.5 \times (6+3.5)\\\\A = 21.98 \times 9.5\\\\A = 208.81

Thus 208.81 square centimeters of aluminium are needed

A hot air balloon is descending at a rate of 287 feet per minute.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the rate of change or slope
  • b is the y-intercept

A hot air balloon is descending at a rate of 287 feet per minute.

Thus, the rate of change m = -287

The negative sign indicates that a hot air balloon is descending.

Let y be elevation.

Let x be the time (in minutes)

As there is no mentioning of the initial height.

Thus, the y-intercept b = 0

now substituting m = -287 and b = 0

y = mx + b

y = -287x + 0

y = -287x

In order to determine the total change in elevation of the balloon in 4 minutes, we need to substitute x = 4 in the equation y = -287x.

Thus, the total change in elevation of the balloon in 4 minutes will be:

y = -287x

y = -287(4)

y = -1148 feet

The negative sign indicates that that the elevation is decreasing.
