Find the height of a cylinder with a surface area of 108 pi square meters. The radius of the cylinder is twice the height.

1 answer:

4 0

Let
x---------> radius of the cylinder
y---------> the height of the cylinder

we know that
x=2y
[surface area of cylinder]=2*[pi*r²]+2*pi*r*h
surface area=108*pi m²
r=x
h=y
x=2y
108*pi=2*[pi*(2y)²]+2*pi*(2y)*y
108*pi=8*pi*y²+4*pi*y²
108*pi=12*pi*y²
y²=108/12
y²=9----------> y=√9--------> y=3 m
x=2y-------> x=2*3-----> x=6 m

the answer is
the height of the cylinder is 3 m

A cargo plane flew from the US across the Atlantic at 212 mph, and flew back to the US at 232 mph. Given that the first trip too

expeople1 [14]

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of plane from US = 212 mph

Speed of plane on return trip = 232 mph

Let,

x be the time taken on return trip.

Time taken from US = x+2

We know that;

Distance = Speed * Time

Distance of plane from US = 212(x+2) = 212x+424

Distance on return trip = 232x

As the distance will be same, therefore,

$232x=212x+424\\232x-212x=424\\20x=424$

Dividing both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{424}{20}\\x=12.2\ hours$

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

2( 4x + 2) = 4x - 12(x-1)

aksik [14]

Answer:

$x=\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute 2 into (4x+2) and -12 into (x-1)

8x+4=4x-12x+12

combine like terms

8x+4=-8x+12

add -8x on both sides

8x+8x+4=12

16x+4=12

subtract 4 on both sides

16x=8

divide both sides by 16

x=1/2

A square has an area of 144 sq. units. how long is its perimeter?

Arada [10]

Formula for Area of a square:

$\boxed {\boxed {\text {Area = Length x Length}}}$

Given that the area is 144 unit²:

$\text {Length}^2 = 144$

$\text {Length} = \sqrt{144} = 12 \text { units}$

Formula for Perimeter of a square:

$\boxed {\boxed {\text {Perimeter = 4 x Length }}}$

$\text {Perimeter = } 4 \times 12 = 48 \text { units}$

$\boxed { \boxed { \text {Answer: The perimeter is 48 units.}}}$
