16m because if you use the pythagorean therum the rest of the pole is 10m long, which you add to the base of the pole.

SA: 2pi (r^2)+2pi(r)(h)
In order to find radius (r) of the base you must divide 10 by pi then find the square root of the result
√(10/pi)=r: 1.784cm
h: a) 8.0cm
b) 6.5cm
c) 9.4cm
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(8)=109.673cm^2
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(6.5)=92.859cm^2
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(9.4)=125.366cm^2

Which of the following is a non-prime factor of 70? Select one: A. 5 B. 7 C. 10 D. 15
Umnica [9.8K]

C. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

by deduction, 5 and 7 are prime numbers and 15 is not a multiple of 70, therefore the answer must be 10 as it is a non-prime number and is a factor of 70 (I.e. 10 and 7)

If i randomly pick a polynomial, is it more likely to have real roots or complex roots?
Vinil7 [7]
I would say you are more likely to have complex roots.  If you think of graphs of polynomials, if you draw a function that doesn't pass through the x-axis, all roots are complex.
