Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

1/3x - 5= 2x             Multiply both sides by 3

1*x - 5*3 = 2x*3      Expand and collect like terms.

x - 15 = 6x                Subtract x from both sides

x - x - 15 = 6x-x        Collect like terms

- 15 = 5x                   Divide both sides by 5

-15/5 = 5x/5             do the Division

- 3 = x

Check

1/3(-3) - 5 = 2(-3)

-1 - 5 = - 6

- 6 = - 6

which checks.

The volume of cone B will be 6 cubic units.

<h3>What is the volume of the cone?</h3>

Let h be the height of the cone and A be the base area of the cone.

Then the volume of the cone will be

Volume = (1/3) × A × h

Consider cone A and cone B.

The bases of the cones are congruent.

The height of cone A is 4 times larger than the height of cone B.

\rm h_a = 4h_b

The volume of cone A is 24.

24 = (1/3) Ahₐ

Then the volume of the cone B will be

\rm V = (1/3)Ah_b

Simplify the expression, then the volume will be

V = 1/4 x (1/3)Ahₐ

V = 1/4 x 24

V = 6 cubic units

The volume of cone B will be 6 cubic units.

More about the volume of the cone link is given below.

What is the equation of a line perpendicular to y=1/4x+2 that passes through the point (0,1)
ipn [44]

Answer: y = -4x + 1 or y = 1 - 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the slope of the perpendicular. The slope of the line perpendicular to the other is the <u>reciprocal and opposite value</u> of the other line's slope.

This means that the slope perpendicular to y = 1/4x + 2 is -4, or -4/1.

Now we need to find the y-intercept, to do that we will use the equation y = mx + b. m = slope, b = y-intercept.

Plug in the values.

1 = -4(0) + b

Simplify.

1 = 0 + b

1 = b

Our y-intercept is 1.

Now we can form the slope-intercept equation for the line perpendicular to y = 1/4x + 2 that passes through the point (0, 1).

y = -4x + 1

Three schools are located at points A, B, and C. The school district wants to locate its new stadium at a location that will be
dangina [55]

I have attached the image showing the location of the three schools.

Answer:

Should be built at the centroid of the triangle formed by points A, B and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached image, we see that if we join the 3 points by a straight line, they will form a triangle.

Now, to get a location that will be roughly the same distance from all 3 schools, it means a point that is equal to each of 3 vertex of the triangle.

The point that is equal to each vertex of a triangle is known as "Centroid".

Now, to find this centroid, we will add up the (x, y) coordinates of the 3 vertex and divide by 3.

For example;let's assume ;A has a coordinate of (x1, y1) ; B has a coordinate of (x2, y2) ; C has a coordinate of (x3, y3).

The coordinates of the centroid will be;

[(x1 + x2 + x3)/3], [(y1 + y2 + y3)/3]
