Answer:

The difference between the given expressions would be $x - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given phrase,

Difference between x+5 and 2x+3,

$( 2x + 3 ) - (x + 5)$

$=2x + 3 - x - 5$ ( By distributive property )

$=x - 2$ ( By combining like terms )

Hence, the required difference would be $x-2$

If the height of the cylinder is halved and the diameter is double, by what factor will the volume of the cylinder change

uysha [10]

Let the radius be: r and height be h
volume = πr²
if the radius is halved then radius = r/2
and height is doubled, so height= 2h
volume = πr*r/4*2h = π*r²*h/2
Thus the volume will be halved.
