One number is 5 times a first number. A third number is 100 more than the first number. If the sum of the three numbers is 779,
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

97, 485, 197

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  • First number = a
  • Second number = b
  • Third number = c

<u>Then we have:</u>

  • b = 5a
  • c = 100+a
  • a + b + c = 779

<u>Substituting b and c in the third equation:</u>

  • a + 5a + 100+a = 779
  • 100 + 7a = 779
  • 7a = 779- 100
  • 7a=679
  • a= 679/7
  • a = 97
  • b= 5*97 = 485
  • c = 100+ 97 = 197

patriot [66]

Answer:

35 cm

volume of cylinder = πr²h

πr²h = 1058.75π

Divide both sides by π.

r²h = 1058.75 cm³

r = 5.5 cm

Substitute r² with (5.5 cm)².

(5.5 cm)²h = 1058.75 cm³

h = 1058.75/30.25 cm

h = 35 cm
