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>

Your friend asked you to bring a couple of bags of chips to his party. there are several brands of chips, each a different size and price. Write a formula that will help you find the price per gram for each bag.

x= price of bag of chips

y= number of grams

z=price per gram

z= \frac{x}{y}

Hope this helps!

last week a candle store recieved 335.60 for selling 20 candles. small candles sell for 10.98 and largr candles sell fer 27.98.
mina [271]
Hmmmm closest I can get to this answer is 6 or 7. The numbers don't add up and it's probably why you haven't received an answer. If you do this math:
13small candles multiplied by 10.98 = 142.74
7large candles multiplied by 27.98 = 195.86
142.74+195.86 = 338.60 which is OVER the total received.
7+13=20 candles
14small candles multiplied by 10.98 = 153.72
6 large candles multiplied by 27.98 = 167.88
153.72+167.88 = 321.60 which is UNDER the total received
Can't go any lower or higher because it's even lower or higher. 
6+14=20 candles
So I wouldn't really know what to say. This isn't adding up.

How do you complete problem number 4?
brilliants [131]
(I'm going to translate y' to dy/dx as it makes it easier to read for me, you could change it back if you wanted.)
x \frac{dy}{dx} -y=0
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{y}{x}
\int \frac{1}{y} dy= \int \frac{1}{x} dx (separate the variables)
\ln y=\ln x +c
\ln y = \ln kx (by letting c = ln k and using log laws)
y=kx (raise everything to power e)
3=k\times1 \implies k=3    (applying boundary conditions)
Particular solution: y=3x
