Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We will set up a proportion to solve this.

The ratio of the slant heights is 18/27.

The ratio of the radii is 6/x.

This gives us the proportion

18/27 = 6/x

Cross multiplying,

18(x) = 27(6)

18x = 162

Divide both sides by 18:

18x/18 = 162/18

x = 9

9 ft
Set up a ratio...6/18=x/27...reduce to 1/3=x/27...cross multiply and solve for x.
3x=27 so x=9

If George put $600 in a savings account at a simple interest rate for each year. What was his interest rate, r, if after 3 years

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier on George's money is ...

$708/$600 = 1.18

This value is ...

1 + rt = 1.18 . . . . . for t = 3

3r = 0.18 . . . . . . subtract 1; next divide by 3

r = 0.06 = 6%

The simple interest rate on George's account is 6%.

Help I don't know how to do this<br>

Answer:

P(t) = 282.2(1.009)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the attached image.

Hope you can read my handwriting. the image cut off the right side, b = 1.009213324... but question asks to round to nearest thousandth so it's 1.009

For the second part just use the equation to find P when t = -1 and see if P is less than (underpredicts) the number from the question or greater than (overpredicts) the number. I haven't calculated it but I think it will be smaller and thus underpredicts just from looking at the numbers when t = -1
