Kurt has 93 United States stamps in his collection

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Kurt has a collection of 155 United States and Canadian stamps
  • He has 1.5 times as many United States stamps as Canadian stamps

We need to find how many United  States stamps Kurt has in his collection

Assume that kart has x Canadian stamps

∵ kart has x Canadian stamps

∵ He has 1.5 times as many United States stamps as Canadian stamps

- That means the number of United States stamps is 1.5 times

   the number of the Canadian stamps

∴ The number of the United States stamps = 1.5 x

∵ Kurt has a collection of 155 United States and Canadian stamps

- Add the two numbers of stamps and equate the answer by 155

∴ x + 1.5 x = 155

- Add like terms

∴ 2.5 x = 155

- Divide both sides by 2.5

∴ x = 62

∵ The number of United States stamps = 1.5 x

∴ The number of United States stamps = 1.5(62)

∴ The number of United States stamps = 93 stamps

Kurt has 93 United States stamps in his collection

When a cylindrical tank is filled with water at a rate of 22 cubic meters per hour, the level of water in the tank rises at a ra
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

r=\sqrt{10}\text{ m}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that when a cylindrical tank is filled with water at a rate of 22 cubic meters per hour, the level of water in the tank rises at a rate of 0.7 meters per hour. We are asked to find the approximate radius of tank in meters.

We will use volume of cylinder formula to solve our given problem as:

V=\pi r^2h, where,

r = Radius,

h = Height of cylinder.

Since the level of water in the tank rises at a rate of 0.7 meters per hour, so height of cylinder would be h = 0.7 meters at V=22\text{ m}^3.

Upon substituting these values in above formula, we will get:

22\text{ m}^3=\frac{22}{7}\cdot r^2(0.7\text{ m})

22\text{ m}^3=\frac{22}{10}\cdot r^2\text{ m}

\frac{10}{22}\cdot\frac{22\text{ m}^3}{\text{m}}=r^2

r^2=\frac{10}{22}\cdot\frac{22\text{ m}^3}{\text{m}}

r^2=10\text{ m}^2

Now, we will take positive square root of both sides as radius cannot be negative.

\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{10\text{ m}^2}

r=\sqrt{10}\text{ m}

Therefore, radius of tank would be approximately square root of 10 m.

Find the measure of angle Y for the kite showing below.
Dovator [93]
It should be 117.5 because in a kite, the angles all add up to 360, and since the remaining unknown angles are the same, you just subtract 38+87 from 360 and divide by 2
