Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for calculate the volume of a cone:

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Where r is the radius and h is the height.

Volume of the cone A:

V_A=\frac{1}{3}\pi (2in)^2(3in)=12.56in^3

Volume of the cone B:

If the height of the cone B and the height of the cone A are the same , but the radius of the cone B is doubled, then its radius is:

r_B=2r_A\\r_B=2*2in\\r_B=4in

Then:

V_B=\frac{1}{3}\pi (4in)^2(3in)=50.26in^3

Divide V_B by V_A:

\frac{V_B}{V_A}=\frac{50.26in^3}{12.56in^3}=4

Therefore: When the radius is doubled, the resulting volume is 4 times that of the original cone.

Answer:

C) When the radius is doubled, the resulting volume is 4 times that of the original cone

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone is given by:

Volume=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h

Cone A has radius = r = 2 inches and height = h = 3 inches

So, the volume of cone A will be:

Volume=\frac{1}{3} \pi (2)^{2} \times 3 = 4 \pi

Height of cone B is same as cone A, so height of cone B = h = 3 inches

Radius of cone B is double of cone A, so radius of cone B = r = 4 inches

So, the volume of cone B will be:

Volume=\frac{1}{3} \pi (4)^{2} \times 3 = 16 \pi

From here we can see that volume of cone B is 4 times the volume of cone A. Thus, doubling the radius increases the volume to 4 times.

So, option C is correct. When the radius is doubled, the resulting volume is 4 times that of the original cone

In a recent survey, 60% of the community favored building a health center in their neighborhood. If 14 citizens are chosen, find
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Probability that exactly 5 of them favor the building of the health center is 0.0408.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a recent survey, 60% of the community favored building a health center in their neighborhood.

Also, 14 citizens are chosen.

The above situation can be represented through Binomial distribution;

P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r}p^{r} (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,.....

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 14 citizens

         r = number of success = exactly 5

        p = probability of success which in our question is % of the community

              favored building a health center in their neighborhood, i.e; 60%

<em>LET X = Number of citizens who favored building of the health center.</em>

So, it means X ~ Binom(n=14, p=0.60)

Now, Probability that exactly 5 of them favor the building of the health center is given by = P(X = 5)

        P(X = 5) = \binom{14}{5} \times 0.60^{5} \times (1-0.60)^{14-5}

                      = 2002 \times 0.60^{5} \times 0.40^{9}

                      = 0.0408

Therefore, Probability that exactly 5 of them favor the building of the health center is 0.0408.

I need to show how to find these solutions 1/4 and 3/4 by completing the square!
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

See explanation, and ask for more details if unclear!

Step-by-step explanation:

The perfect square of this equation is x^2-x+\frac{1}{4}, since the square would be (x-\frac{1}{2})^2. 1/4=4/16, meaning that you can set up the equation in the following way:

(x^2-x+\frac{1}{4})-\frac{1}{16}=0

(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{1}{16}

Take the square root of both sides:

x-\frac{1}{2}=\pm \frac{1}{4}

Add 1/2 to both sides:

x=\frac{1}{2}\pm \frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{4}. Hope this helps!

Micheal buys a new jacket for 90 dollars. Sales tax is 8%. How much does Micheal actually have to pay?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

$97.20

Step-by-step explanation:

you make the 8% into a decimal by moving the decimal to places to the left.

8%=0.08, Then you multiply that by the whole number of 90 dollars.

0.08 x 90 = $97.20
