At a bargain store.Tanya bought 5 items that each cost the same amount. Tony bought 6 items that each cost the same amount, but

each was $1.75 less than the items that tanya bought. both tanya and Tony paid the same amount of money. what was the individual cost of each person's items?
(A) write an equation. let x represent the cost of one of tanya's items.
(B) solve the equation. show your work
(C) check your solution. show your work
(D) state the solution in complete sentences.

(A) For x representing the cost of one of Tanya's items, her total purchase cost 5x. The cost of one of Tony's items is then (x-1.75) and the total of Tony's purchase is 6(x-1.75). The problem statement tells us these are equal values. Your equation is ...

... 5x = 6(x -1.75)

(B) Subtract 5x, simplify and add the opposite of the constant.

... 5x -5x = 6x -6·1.75 -5x

... 0 = x -10.50

... 10.50 = x

(C) 5x = 5·10.50 = 52.50

... 6(x -1.75) = 6·8.75 = 52.50 . . . . . the two purchases are the same value

(D) The individual cost of Tanya's iterms was $10.50. The individual cost of Tony's items was $8.75.

A right circular cylinder is inscribed in a sphere with diameter 4cm as shown. If the cylinder is open at both ends, find the la
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

8\pi\text{ square cm}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that,

The surface area of a cylinder having both ends in both sides,

S=2\pi rh

Where,

r = radius,

h = height,

Given,

Diameter of the sphere = 4 cm,

So, by using Pythagoras theorem,

4^2 = (2r)^2 + h^2   ( see in the below diagram ),

16 = 4r^2 + h^2

16 - 4r^2 = h^2

\implies h=\sqrt{16-4r^2}

Thus, the surface area of the cylinder,

S=2\pi r(\sqrt{16-4r^2})

Differentiating with respect to r,

\frac{dS}{dr}=2\pi(r\times \frac{1}{2\sqrt{16-4r^2}}\times -8r + \sqrt{16-4r^2})

=2\pi(\frac{-4r^2+16-4r^2}{\sqrt{16-4r^2}})

=2\pi(\frac{-8r^2+16}{\sqrt{16-4r^2}})

Again differentiating with respect to r,

\frac{d^2S}{dt^2}=2\pi(\frac{\sqrt{16-4r^2}\times -16r + (-8r^2+16)\times \frac{1}{2\sqrt{16-4r^2}}\times -8r}{16-4r^2})

For maximum or minimum,

\frac{dS}{dt}=0

2\pi(\frac{-8r^2+16}{\sqrt{16-4r^2}})=0

-8r^2 + 16 = 0

8r^2 = 16

r^2 = 2

\implies r = \sqrt{2}

Since, for r = √2,

\frac{d^2S}{dt^2}=negative

Hence, the surface area is maximum if r = √2,

And, maximum surface area,

S = 2\pi (\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{16-8})

=2\pi (\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{8})

=2\pi \sqrt{16}

=8\pi\text{ square cm}
