The answer is 10 was added to each side.

x² + 8x + 60 = x² + 12x + 20

x² + 8x + 60 - x² = x² + 12x + 20 - x²

8x + 60 = 12x + 20
60 - 20 = 12x - 8x
40 = 4x
x = 40/4
x = 10

So, 10 was added to each side.

Answer:

2 was added to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a rectangle when changed sides, the area became 60 greater than the original

The equation given is

x^2 + 8x + 60 = x^2 + 12x + 20

From the above equation we can see that the original area wasx^2 + 8x

and it changed to

x^2 + 12x + 20

Original rectangle dimensions= factors of area terms = x , x+8

New rectangle dimensions = factors of x^2 + 12x + 20

=x+2, x+10

Thus we have both length and width increased by 2 units.

A cake decorator rolls a piece of stiff paper to form a cone. She cuts off the tip of the cone and uses it as a funnel to pour d
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone

V = 1/3 pi r^2 (h)

V = 1/3 pi 66^2 (18)

V= 1/3 pi 4356(18)

V = 1/3 pi 78408

V = 1/3 264,201.12

V = 82,067.04cm^3

For each figure answer the following questions
Rudiy27

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC by AA similarity

  b) ED/AB = 3/4

  c) 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Two angles in each triangle are the same, so the AA similarity postulate can be used to declare the ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC. (Each triangle includes a right angle and angle C.)

__

b) Corresponding sides are ED/AB, DC/BC, EC/AC. The ratio of corresponding sides is ED/BC = (12 cm)/(16 cm) = 3/4.

__

c) Using the ratios identified above, we have ...

  DC/BC = 3/4 = x/(20 cm)

  x = 3/4(20 cm)

  x = 15 cm
