Answer:

650 cannonballs

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The stack of Cannonballs is really the sum of squares.

The top layer is 1^2

The second layer is 2^2

The Third layer is 3^2

....

layer 12 ( the bottom layer) is 12^2

The formula for this is

n*(n + 1)*(2n + 1)/6

n = 12

12(12 + 1)(2*12 + 1)/6

12 * 13 * 25/6

650

The sum of this pyramid is 650 Cannonballs

third layer = 3 ^ 2

layer 12 is 12 ^ 2

<u>The formula is: </u>

<u>n * (n + 1) * (2n + 1) / 6 </u>

<u>n = 12 </u>

<u>12 (12 + 1) (2 * 12 + 1) / 6 </u>

Find the value of x. please helpp
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

given 2 secants drawn from an external point to the circle , then

the product of the measures of one secant's external part and that entire secant is equal to the product of the other secant's external part and that entire secant, that is

9(9 + 2 + 3x) = 10(10 + 2x + 2)

9(11 + 3x) = 10(12 + 2x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

99 + 27x = 120 + 20x ( subtract 20x from both sides )

99 + 7x = 120 ( subtract 99 from both sides )

7x = 21 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 3
