Answer:

312.5\pi \text{ km}^3\approx 981.75\text{ km}^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a series of 3 separate, adjacent tunnels is constructed through a mountain. Its length is approximately 25 kilometers.

Each of the three tunnels is shaped like a half-cylinder with a radius of 5 meters.

Since we know that volume of a semicircular or a half cylinder is half the volume of a circular cylinder.

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\frac{\pi r^2h}{2}, where,

r = Radius of cylinder,

h = height of the cylinder.

Upon substituting our given values in volume formula we will get,

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\frac{\pi (5\text{ km})^2*25\text{ km}}{2}

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\frac{\pi*25\text{ km}^2*25\text{ km}}{2}

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\frac{\pi*625\text{ km}^3}{2}

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\pi*312.5\text{ km}^3

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=\pi*312.5\text{ km}^3

\text{Volume of a semicircular cylinder}=981.74770\text{ km}^3

Therefore, the volume of earth removed to build the three tunnels is 312.5\pi \text{ km}^3\approx 981.75\text{ km}^3.

What is the area of the squares with sides (2x-3)feet?​
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

4x^2 -12x +9   ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is

A = s^2 where s is the side length

A = (2x-3) ^2

A = (2x-3) (2x-3)

FOIL

first 2x*2x =4x^2

outer 2x (-3) = -6x

inner -3*2x = -6x

last -3*-3 = 9

Add them together

4x^2 -6x-6x +9

Combine like terms

4x^2 -12x +9

The area is 4x^2 -12x +9 ft^2
