If you divide 9/2 you receive 4.5. Tho when you divide 1/3 you get .33333 (repeated), so now you know that both the fractions do not correlate. Now the 'multiples' of 1/3 are 2/ 6, 3/9, 4/12, 5/15, 6/18, 7/21 and so on. If you do the 'multiples' of 2/9 you get 4/18, 6/27. The common factors are 4/18 and 6/18. So know you know that Sandy is using 2/18 (or 1/9) cups more of sugar.

I think the wording of the question is off, since 2/9 is less than 1/3. I think the question meant to say "she increases it by 2/9" thus making this an addition problem.

1/3+2/9
Dind the lcm of 3 and 9 and transform the fractions appropriately:
3/9+2/9
5/9

So Sandy used 5/9 cups of brown sugar.

Find the surface area of a cone with radius 14.2 inches and slant height 24.1 inches.
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

1708.58658058

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area formula = (π×r²)+(π×r×s)

r = radius

s = slant height

So we substitute the values into the formula (π×r²)+(π×r×s)

(π×14.2²)+(π×14.2×24.1) = 1708.58658058

Point h is between g and i. If gh = 2x2 + 7x, hi = 9x – 2, and gi = 38, find the length of gh, hi and the possible values of x.
yuradex [85]
2x²+7x+9x-2=38
2x²+16x-40=0
2(x²+8x-20)=0
2(x+10)(x-2)=0
x=-10 or x=2
if we let x=-10 we get negative lengths for some of the segments which is not allowed so discard it. for x=2,

gh=22, hi=16, and gi=38
