Answer:

Stephen has 9 trees

Alice has 21 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>At the beginning:</u>

Stephen = x trees

Alice = x + 12 trees

<u>At the end:</u>

Alice = (x + 12) - 4 trees

Stephen = x + 10 trees

Total = 36

Then

((x+12)-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+12-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+8)+(x+10)=36\\ \\x+8+x+10=36\\ \\2x+18=36\\ \\2x+18-18=36-18\\ \\2x=18\\ \\x=9

Stephen - 9 trees

Alice - 9 + 12 = 21 trees

What is the difference between the volume of a cone and the volume of the cylinder
amm1812

The volume of a cone is always 3 times smaller than that of its corresponding cylinder (that is, a cylinder with the same height and base radius).

As in:

Volume of a cylinder= πr²h

and Volume of a cone=⅓πr²h

But just in case you were referring to an actual difference, then that would be ⅔πr²h, since 1—⅓ = ⅔.

Algebraically manipulating the formula FV = P +Prt, find the time period in years (to the nearest whole year) it would take to q
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

55years

Explanation:

According to the given expression

FV = P +Prt

P is the initial deposit = $1000

FV is the future value = 4(1000) = $4000

r is the rate = 5.5% = 0.055

Required

Time t

Substitute the given values into the expression as shown;

FV = P +Prt

4000 = 1000 + 1000(0.055)t

4000 - 1000 = 55t

3000 = 55t

Swap

55t = 3000

t = 3000/55

t = 54.5years

t = 55years

This means it will take the deposit of $1000 55years to quadruple

Which of the following is the simplified form of the seventh root of x times the seventh root of x times the seventh root of x ?
Studentka2010 [4]
When multiplying numbers of the same base , we add the powers.
Example:
2^2 * 2^3 = 2^(2+3) = 2^5

For the givens:
The seventh root of x can be written as x^(1/7)
Now, we need to multiply x^(1/7) by x^(1/7) by x^(1/7)
These numbers have the same base which is "x", therefore, we will just add the power.
This means that:
x^(1/7) * x^(1/7) * x^(1/7) = x^(1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7) = x^(3/7)

Therefore, the correct choice is the first one: x^(3/7)
