Answer:  The ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders is 512 : 3375.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that two similar cylinders have a scale factor of \dfrac{1.6}{3}.

We are to find the ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders.

We know that

the volume of a cylinder with radius r units and height h units is given by

V=\pi r^2h.

Let r and R be the radii and h and H be the heights of the two cylinders.

Then, we must have

\dfrac{R}{r}=\dfrac{1.6}{3}=\dfrac{16}{30}=\dfrac{8}{15}\\\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{8}{15}r.

And, similarly,

H=\dfrac{8}{15}h.

Therefore, the volume of the first cylinder will be

V_1=\pi r^2h

and volume of the second cylinder will be

V_2=\pi R^2H=\pi\times\left(\dfrac{8}{15}r\right)^2\times\left(\dfrac{8}{15}h\right)=\dfrac{512}{3375}\pi r^2h.

Thus, the required ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders is given by

\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}=\dfrac{\frac{512}{3375}\pi r^2h}{\pi r^2h}=\dfrac{512}{3375}=512:3375.

The ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders is 512 : 3375.

Volume of cylinders = pi x r^2 x height

Simplifying the ratio:
1.6/3 = 16 / 30 (multiply and divide by 10 to remove the decimal)

Volume Ratio = 512:27</span>

Which similarity postulate or theorem can be used to verify that the two triangles shown below are similar?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. Similarity cannot be determined

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are considered similar when all three angles are equal and also when the ratio of their corresponding side lengths are equal.

Since we only know the angles of the two triangles given and we are not given the side lengths to determine if their corresponding ratio is the same, we therefore cannot determine if the two triangles are similar in anyway.

How many years older will you be 1.60 billion seconds from now? (Assume a 365-day year.)
docker41 [41]
There are 31,536,000 Seconds in one year

In order to find out how much older you get, you just needed to divide it :

1,600,000,000 / 31,536,000 

= 50,73 years older

Evaluate the function for the given input values f(x)=3x-1 find f(2) f(2)=
Harman [31]

Answer:

f(2) =5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a function f(x) = 3x-1

When we find f(2) ,let x=2

f(2) = 3*2-1

      = 6-1

    =5

Algebra 2 need help on a ( ABC )
Len [333]

Answer:

b)

x =  \frac{15}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

b) set up equations so they are equal to each other,

2x - 2 =  - 3x + 12

5x = 14

x = \frac{14}{5}

this is when f(x)=g(x) so our approximation was close.

c)solving it graphically is nearly impossible because the solution can be any value around the intersection. only way to be sure is to solve it symbolically.
