Answer:

  2.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of a cylinder is the sum of the two base areas and the lateral area.

 S = 2πr² +2πrh

Filling in the given information, we have ...

  47.5π = 2πr² +14πr

  23.75 = r² +7r . . . . . divide by 2π

  23.75 +12.25 = r² +7r +12.25 . . . . . . add the square of 7/2 to complete the square

  36 = (r +3.5)² . . . . simplify a bit

  6 = r +3.5 . . . . . . . take the positive square root

  2.5 = r . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.5

The radius of the base of the cylinder is 2.5 cm.

Explain how you can use absolute value to tell wether the sum of two integers is positive or negative
Rudiy27

Step-by-step explanation:

Using absolute value to tell wether the sum of two integers is positive or negative.

Suppose we have a positive integer,

x and a negative interger, -x and we want to find their sum, we take the absolute values of each of the integers, that is |x| and |-x|. Then we subtract these values: |x| - |-x|. If the larger integer is positive, the result of the difference is positive, but if the larger number is negative, the result of the difference is negative.

For any integer x, x + (-x) = 0

Which of the following sums would be under the radical symbol to find the distance between the points (7, -1) and (-8, -9)?
Alexxandr [17]

Sadly, you didn't put any sums on your list of choices. 
In fact, I can't even find a list of choices !

To find the distance between  (7, -1)  and  (-8, -9),
you would build a sum under a square-root (radical)
symbol, and it would look something like this:

               √ ( 225 + 64 ) .
