If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB = BC.

We have AB = x + 5 and BC = 2x - 11.

Therefore we have the equation:

x + 5 = 2x - 11       <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

x = 2x - 16       <em>subtract 2x from both sides</em>

-x = -16      <em>change the signs</em>

x = 16

Put the value of x to the expression x + 5:

AB = 16 + 5 = 21

<h3>Answer: AB = 21</h3>

The volume of the cone is 130 units^3. Solve for x.<br> Height: 13<br> Radius: x
Gwar [14]
V=(1/3)hpir^2
v=130
h=13
r=x

130=(1/3)(13)pix^2
times both sides by 3
390=13pix^2
divide both sides by 13
30=pix^2
divide both sides by pi
30/pi=x^2
sqrt both sides
x≈3.09
radius is abou 3 units

It is the first option. DF = DE. It is referring to the lengths of each line, DE and DF look like they are the same. It is not a scalene triangle it is a right triangle. EF is way too long to be equal to DE or DF
