A cone has radius 9 and height 12. A frustum of this cone has height 4.

Mathematics

The radii of the frustrum bases is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached below, ABC represents the cone cross-section while the BCDE represents frustum cross-section

As given in the figure radius and height of the cone are 9 and 12 respectively

Similarly, the height of the frustum is 4

Hence the height of the complete cone= 4+12= 16 (height of frustum+ height of cone)

We can see that ΔABC is similar to ΔADE

Using the similarity theorem

AC/AE=BC/DE

Substituting the values  

12/16=9/DE

∴ DE= 16*9/12= 12

Hence the radii of the frustum is 12

-x+y=15−x+y=15 and -5x-3y=27−5x−3y=27 <br> Solve the system of equations by combining the equations
Arisa [49]

Answer:

x = -9, y = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + y = 15

-5x - 3y = 27

From the first equation:

y = x + 15.

Substituting for y in second equation:

-5x - 3(x + 15) = 27

-8x - 45 = 27

-8x = 72

x = -9.

Now plug x = -9 into equation 1

-(-9) + y = 15

y = 15 -9 = 6.

What is six less than three raised to the third power?
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Three raise to third power can be written as 3^3. In this three is the base which is raised to third power.

3^3 = 3*3*3 = 27

Next we need to subtract 6 from Three raise to third power(i.e from 27)

which can be written mathematically as

3^3 - 6 = 3*3*3 - 6 \\=> 27 - 6 = 21

Hence 6 less  than three raised to the third power is 21 as explained above.
